"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."
"According to the research conducted by DBmaestro, configuration drifts account for 70.3% of database errors. This number makes it the largest and most impactful roadblock. The problem originated from the inconsistency between the various database versions. 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."
Manual database processes prevent rapid, frequent database deployments, with only 12% of teams able to deploy daily. Configuration drifts cause 70.3% of database errors and arise from inconsistent database versions and undocumented changes. Untracked patches, updates, and changes create discrepancies between source control and live databases that can snowball across iterations, making root causes harder to identify and mitigation slower. Undocumented scaling changes, such as temporary peak-season modifications, can produce performance problems when reverting. These issues slow development, impede DevOps pipelines, create operational and deployment failures, and reduce time-to-market, quality, and productivity for DBAs, developers, and security professionals.
