Webcast : IDERA Live | Do More with Less: Manage Multiple Database Roles and Platforms
In today’s ever-changing world, many database professionals must take on multiple roles, often combining database administrator, developer, DevOps, or analyst into one job. This is challenging on its own, but becomes even more difficult with more complex database deployments and multiple database platforms. Whether you are performing database administration, development, or data visualizations, learning the differences between the platforms can be time-consuming, and switching between tools for each function requires too much time and effort. However many tasks or database platforms you’re trying to manage, you want an easy-to-use single tool that can automate and simplify your day-to-day activities so that you can productively focus on the most important items. IDERA’s Lisa Waugh will share key considerations for choosing a database tool and how different roles can accomplish their goals effectively using Aqua Data Studio.
To manage multiple different database roles and multiple different database platforms presents several challenges, including:
* Complexity: Handling heterogeneous database environments, multiple platforms, multiple versions of platforms, and many database instances can be quite complex.
* Shift to an application-centric focus: DBAs need to adapt to a more application-centric approach, which requires a deeper understanding of the applications that interact with the databases.
* Support for multiple database platforms: DBAs must be proficient in various database platforms, as each platform may have unique features and requirements.
* Expanding responsibilities for managing database performance: DBAs need to ensure optimal performance for both on-premises and cloud-based databases.
* Limited diagnostic capability: With multiple platforms, DBAs may have fewer tools for resolving problems, leading to less control and increased frustration.
Access control and authorization: Managing diverse and dynamic data sources, such as cloud-based databases, can pose challenges in database access control and authorization.
