NCDevCon Session Spotlight: Version control on the database: the final frontier

You finally have your code under source control with git! Congratulations! Pat yourself on the back. To bad you are only half way done. You know that database your code talks to you? Yeah, your app won't work without it. Have you put your database DDL and SPs under source control yet? Didn't think so. Don't worry we have one of several solutions you. My topic will discuss our methodology that we use to put the db under Version control:

 

  1. Work Locally with your own DB
  2. Work from ColdFusion Builder 2 with our custom plugin. No need for a separate expensive tool.
  3. Branch, Merge, Push, Pull, Fork and Deploy your database just like it was code (because it is)
  4. Load your database automatically with reliable sample data to facilitate Application testing and continuous integration
