2. Agenda • Explaining The Problem • The Stages to DLM with a Real World Demos • Resources • Questions along the way #devsummer
3. Expectations #devsummer
4. Expectations • It’s not about tools. • It’s not only about SQL Server but it’s what I am going to be showing. • Lots of moving parts in action but that’s A-OK. • Something you can apply right away #devsummer
5. Why you should care? • There is no such an app w/o data. • Unlocking the Doors For Continuous Delivery • Fast release cycle • Continuous feedback loop • Tools have historically been primitive • Rolling your own solution is great, but it isn't adding value to your business. #devsummer
6. Problem (Simplest) dbo.Foo dbo.Bar dbo.FooBar dbo.GetBiggest v1.2.0 Dev1 dbo.Foo dbo.Bar dbo.GetBiggest v1.1.0 Production #devsummer
7. Problem (Typical) v1.1.0 Production QA Dev1 v1.2.0 TEST TEST TEST #devsummer
8. Stages to This Hard Problem • S1: Manual: Manual management of all database changes • S2: Source Control • S3: Continuous integration • S4: Release Management #devsummer
9. Source Control • Root solution • Provides Single Source of Truth • All the advantages of Source Control System • Reverting Changes • Review • Etc. #devsummer
10. DEMO SQL Source Control and Git #devsummer
11. Continuous Integration • Ensuring the Schema Health • Testing #devsummer
12. DEMO TeamCity and SQL CI #devsummer
13. Release Management #devsummer • All about Automating Database Releases • Providing Review Process • Insight on the Changes • Warnings • Script • Being on the safe side
14. DEMO Octopus Deploy and SQL Release #devsummer
15. Monitoring #devsummer • Two Sides • Performance • State, History • Keeping track of what happened • Knowing what the current state • Catching the out of process changes
16. DEMO DLM Dashboard #devsummer
17. Going Further • Migrations Based Approach • Typical Integration Testing/QA/Staging/Production loop • Zero Downtime Deployments • Deploying to Multiple Database (e.g. Multi-tenant Applications) • Catastrophic Cases (Unhealthy Releases, etc.) #devsummer
