Database DevOps Intermediate: Accessing and Managing Databases through Database DevOps

  1. Standards and Processes: NineData provides a complete set of database DevOps solutions, with rigorous SQL change standards and approval processes, helping enterprises efficiently complete data access and changes.

    • Design Phase: System administrators design SQL development standards on NineData, ensuring that user operations on the platform comply with unified standards. These standards will run through the entire database development and management lifecycle, forming standardization and automation.

    • Operation Phase: Developers attempt to directly change the database, are intercepted by the standards, and thus submit database change requests through SQL tasks. Change requests will be pre-reviewed by the system, then reviewed by DBAs or responsible persons for the change content, and can only be executed after all approvals.
