This document introduces a webinar series focused on extending DevOps practices to Microsoft Data Platform databases, featuring speaker Grant Fritchey. It emphasizes the importance of source control, automated testing, and monitoring to improve deployment efficiency and reduce defects. Additionally, it highlights Redgate tools that facilitate these DevOps processes and encourages participation in future webinars.
Extend DevOps to Your SQL Server Databases
- 1. Extend DevOps to Your Microsoft Data Platform Databases Azure webinar series
- 2. Intro slide
- 3. Meet our speaker Grant Fritchey Microsoft Data Platform MVP PASS Immediate Past President Redgate Advocate
- 5. Learn about the benefits of DevOps for the DBA Understand the capabilities of the Azure DevOps infrastructure in support of the Data Platform See how Redgate Tools makes DevOps easy Goals
- 6. Communication is everything All code in source control Shift Left Automated Tests Automated Deployments Monitoring DevOps fundamentals
- 7. Every database is code More backups is better Recovery is hard An “undo” button in a database Source Control is a Backup
- 8. 29% 23% 47% 44% 21% 30% Version Control No Version Control 1% or less of deployments have defects 2-10% of deployments have defects More than 10% of deployments have defects Best result Worst result Frequent deployers using version control report lower defect rates Source: Redgate State of Database DevOps Report 2020
- 9. “Shift Left” adds protection Earlier testing Faster failure Frequency of deployment Self-service means learning
- 10. 37% 20% 28% 45% 43% 39% 19% 37% 33% Easy to get a code review Difficult to get a code review No code review 1% or less of deployments have defects 2-10% of deployments have defects More than 10% of deployments have defects Best result Source: Redgate State of Database DevOps Report 2020 Early code review for database changes is associated with lower production defect rates
- 11. Automated testing protects production • When something breaks deploying in dev, build a test • When something breaks deploying in CI, build a test • When something breaks deploying to QA, build a test • Every test improves protection for production • Testing combined with “shift-left” improves production safety
- 12. No script should run first in production Every deployment is a test Practice is fundamental to mastery “Shift-left” makes practice deployments mean more All this adds to protection for production Frequent deployments means practice
- 13. 37% weekly or better 40% weekly or better 49% weekly or better 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 2018 2019 2020 Once or a few times a year Once or twice a Month Daily, Weekly, or on Demand Production database deployment frequency is increasing Source: Redgate State of Database DevOps Report 2020
- 14. Monitoring ensures behavior Understand behavior prior to deployment Know when deployments occur Understand behavior after a deployment Monitoring drives innovation Protection starts with monitoring
- 15. Communication is everything All code in source control Shift Left Automated Tests Automated Deployments Monitoring DevOps fundamentals
- 16. Redgate SQL Change Automation Gets your database code into and out of source control Deploys your changes through Azure DevOps Ensures repeatable process Provides mechanisms for testing
