Dbdeploy is a tool designed for Database Change Management.
Drawing from our vast experience, version-controlled SQL delta scripts are the easiest way to change the database. We've observed that it's beneficial to use the same scripts in development environments as in QA, UAT, and Production. The task of managing and utilizing these deltas could become excessive - this is where dbdeploy comes in handy. The project aims to solve this issue.
The tool functions by comparing the SQL delta scripts on your filesystem and generating SQL scripts without applying them directly. Administrative tasks are handled within an ant build file. Dbdeploy supports the following DBMS: Oracle, MS SQL Server, Sybase, and Hypersonic SQL.
In summary, dbdeploy is an efficient tool for developers and DBAs. Its ability to manage and make use of version-controlled SQL delta scripts is a lifesaver. The tool facilitates the controlled development of databases in different environments, making it ideal for testing and production purposes. Additionally, it supports a variety of DBMS, making it versatile and functional.
