[Your database is in crisis]
We have already paid full attention to databases, so they should not be IT risk factors. However, even if the DRP (disaster recovery plan) has a budget, backup mechanism, and a top-notch DBA, the database poses a major threat. Why?
Become agile
In a rapidly developing and competitive market, if your competitors can release related products faster and better, it means that you will lose market share eventually. That's why companies need to be agile. Companies need to better control information, make decisions faster, accelerate Software Delivery, and optimize quality control. Agile is born to deal with these challenges. It enables organizations to develop faster and respond to ever-changing needs, while ensuring optimal quality. Bringing agile concepts into products (product environments, customer sites, etc.), and closely linking development and operation, this demand has led to the birth of DevOps.
The emergence of agility and DevOps has not completely changed the best practices of software development lifecycle (SDLC. Because they are steps of software development evolution, rather than a complete change. However, if you are driving on the fast track of the agile world, it is even more important to implement these best practices. In addition, automation is extremely important. It not only improves the overall efficiency, but also reduces the inherent risks of frequent changes and releases.
The automation, continuous integration, continuous delivery, and continuous deployment of processes have been proven over and over again. They ensure the efficiency and reliability of the overall process.
