DevOps / SDLC, 0

---

As the DBA for an Agile, Sprint-based team, you may feel like the bottleneck at every turn. You’ve stuck with the existing processes and tools because it’s what you know. After all, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!” Right? I have good news! With only a few new skills and free tools from Microsoft, you can join the Agile & DevOps revolution to help accelerate your team, product, and data infrastructure. In this session I’ll use the newest version of SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) to model an existing database and then demonstrate each step from modification to a working, automated deployment. I’ll highlight the configuration options that matter most, provide solutions for overcoming common problems across environments, and show you what to do once the release is ready for production. After seeing the possibilities, you'll be ready to change those old processes. And in no time at all, you’ll be the talk of the team as they try to keep pace with you!
