IDERA DB Change Manager helps database administrators and developers to:
- Simplify and automate database change management.
- Streamline development cycles.
- Ensure availability, performance, and compliance.
DB Change Manager provides comparison, synchronization, data masking, and auditing capabilities that let you track and report on changes, roll out new releases, and pinpoint problems resulting from changes at the data, schema, and database configuration levels.
By comparing a live database to a schema or configuration “snapshot,” administrators can quickly identify changes and correct problems. By monitoring configuration settings, administrators can ensure compliance with regulatory policies and performance standards and maintain overall database performance and availability.
