Database Version Control
Harrie Verveer schreibt im techPortal über Database Version Control. Spannendes Thema weil das lange nicht so einfach und verbreitet ist wie seinen Quellcode unter Versions Controlle zu stellen.
Database version control is something that most developers have to deal with regularly, yet only a few have actually thought about what solution might be best for them. Most people have a solution that sort of works for them, but when you ask them about the subject they are pretty convinced that there must be some better way to manage database changes, they’re just not entirely sure what that solution is – but the silver bullet must be out there somewhere, right?
This article will give you a bit more insight into the theory behind database version control, and gives you several suggestions on how you could deal with the problem. We will look at simple solutions and also take a look at some of the tools available to help.
