DevOps for Databases

Sure you may have automated the build and deployment of your applications, but what about your databases? If you're like most companies, you're still manually building and deploying database changes, but here's the good news - there is a better way! In this talk, we'll start from the beginning and discuss the decisions you need to make when deciding how you want to automatically build and deploy database schema changes. We'll talk about Migration vs Model based approaches and the pros and cons of both. We'll discuss common gotcha's and review the workflows I've gone through to get to a successful build and deploy pipeline up and running in no time (including a multi-tenant SQL Server database that got its start over 25 years ago!).
