"When it comes to databases, only 12% of respondents were able to deploy database changes on a daily basis. The fact of the matter is simple - your DevOps pipeline will break whenever manually-operated databases get involved. Besides slower development, this makes life difficult for database administrators (DBAs), development team leaders, IT professionals, CISOs, and anyone else who is related to the process. Slower time to market and lower quality also become serious issues, as does productivity."
"When a wrong version goes into production, it creates major operational and deployment issues due to code drifts and inconsistencies. But how does an unintended version reach production? The lack of consistent recording of database changes, patches, and updates leads to unnoticed discrepancies between the source control and the database. After several iterations, the differences can snowball. As versions multiply, the root of the problem gets harder to pinpoint, which slows down mitigation ops and generates more issues."
Only 12% of organizations can deploy database changes daily, leaving databases as a critical bottleneck in delivery pipelines. Manual database operations create configuration drift, accounting for 70.3% of database errors, driven by inconsistent database versions and undocumented changes. Lack of consistent recording of changes, patches, and updates produces discrepancies between source control and live databases that compound over time. As versions multiply, identifying the root cause becomes harder, slowing mitigation and increasing operational and deployment issues. Undocumented scale-up changes, such as those during peak eCommerce periods, can produce performance problems when systems revert to prior states.
