The lack of visibility into the relationship between data assets and business processes is hindering IT’s ability to effectively deliver business value through the CI/CD pipeline. Quest provides Enterprise Architecture, data intelligence and modeling tools that leverage metadata and enable the reconciliation of business requirements with data models.

• Map the relationships among business strategy, processes, IT infrastructure and data
• Harvest and curate metadata into a central repository to better locate and understand it
• Reconcile business requirements with data models, then convert into physical data structure changes

Ineffective change orchestration leads to multiple problems, including code defects, technical debt, poor production workload performance and unforeseen cloud spend. Quest’s DevOps orchestration tools for Oracle and SQL Server help integrate database change management processes into the CI/CD pipeline, making it more efficient and secure.

• Visualize the workflow of CI/CD steps, including testing and code reviews, within the release pipeline
• Monitor, diagnose and optimize workload performance throughout the pipeline
• Discover, protect and manage endpoints to reduce risk of intruder access to sensitive data

Errors in manually-created deployment scripts often lead to application issues, and ad hoc changes made by IT may lead to inconsistencies of future releases. Quest code deployment tools automate the comparison and reconciliation of changes to eliminate discrepancies. Performance monitoring tools ensure teams can proactively resolve issues and maintain database workloads and infrastructure.

• Automatically generate DDL scripts based on source/target comparison of objects and data
• Reconcile changes to objects and data back to business process flows via the metadata repository
• Proactively monitor and maintain production database workloads and infrastructure performance
