Embarcadero Change Manager is a powerful set of tools to help you simplify and automate the database change management lifecycle.
- Simplify and automate database change management
- Streamline development cycles
- Ensure availability, performance and compliance
Change Manager´s schema compare and alter, data compare and synchronization, and configuration auditing capabilities report on database changes, roll out new releases, and pinpoint database performance problems that result from both planned and unplanned changes.
By comparing a live database to a schema, or configuration "snapshot", administrators can quickly identify changes and correct problems in less time. By monitoring configuration settings, DBAs can ensure compliance with regulatory policies and performance standards, and maintain overall database performance and availability. Change Manager supports IBM® DB2® for LUW, Microsoft® SQL Server, Oracle®, and Sybase®.
Change Manager offers:- Capture of schema archives, which provide a record of database schema at a point in time
- Live-to-live, live-to-archive, and archive-to-archive compare jobs
- One-to-many compare
- Advanced alter generation
- Manage user, server and system objects
- Cross-DBMS data compare and automated object mapping
- Archive and compare database configuration settings
- Source Code Control Integration
- Command Line API and notification
If you are looking to manage databases across the enterprise to achieve higher availability, performance and security, learn more about DBArtisan, a leading cross-platform database administration solution. Do you need to write, debug, and tune database logic more efficiently and for higher performance? Take a look at Rapid SQL, an integrated cross-platform database development environment.
For Database AdministratorsRoll out database changes more easily
- Use a live-to-live database compare as a basis for obtaining a list of changed objects, and a change script to roll the changes forward
- Capture a snapshot of the target before you roll changes forward, so that you can roll back a schema change if necessary
- Deep support for DB2 for LUW, Oracle, SQL Server and Sybase leverages DBMS-specific features, objects, options, and syntax
Easily reveal how a database has changed since a point in time and track and report on changes
- Reveal and report on changes to packaged application databases resulting from vendor patches or customization
- Uncover abnormalities in the database that result from improper change, which might impact production performance or functionality
- Notify yourself or your colleagues when a particular portion of the database has changed: for example tables for data modelers, stored procedures for developers, etc.
Comply with Database Audit and Reporting Requirements
- Identify and report on changes to the database at or between points in time, or to particular sensitive objects: ad hoc or on a regular basis
- Audit database configurations against established standards to minimize the vulnerability of your databases
For Developers, Development Managers and QAUse Change Manager to help streamline and accelerate your development cycles
- Track and communicate database changes with modelers, DBAs, and other developers
- Archive modified stored procedures, tables, indexes, etc., and report on the modifications using the scheme compare functionality
- Associate a change request with a set of database objects that have changed
- Manage your reference data via live-to-live data compare, and report on reference data changes
Validate synchronicity between development and QA environments
- Ensure the integrity of your structures and reference data before you begin testing
- Ensure that development and QA match production: that no changes to production have occurred that would otherwise escape your attention
Streamline common development and QA tasks
- Easily generate change scripts, for changes to modified schema and dependent objects
- Capture your database objects at points in time, so that you can report on, or roll back to a particular state in time for just that object, or for an entire schema
- Use data compare as a basis for comparing expected to actual results
- Manage your reference data
