Intro
Software Development DevOps concepts
OCI DevOps A complete
Online Application Upgrades with Rolling Deployments Application containers are usually stateless
Online Application Upgrades with Stateful Dependencies Databases are stateful, so what about incompatible schema changes?
Pipelining the Database Cloning An example: using Autonomous Database dones
Use the Right Tool for SQL Development SQLd integrales perfectly with CVCD pipelines
Generate and Apply Consistent and Repeatable Changes Versioning and controlling the schema changes
Build and Test at Every Code Merge in the Feature Branches A Partial Example of CI Pipeline Specification
Edition-Based Redefinition
Non-Editionable Objects Online Operations Optimized for mission-critical application workloads
Online Table Redefinition Where normal online operation cannot go, there is DBMS_REDEFINITION
