The
Schemation product and database build methodology did not
arise as early as it should have done. For many years its
creator travelled from company to company as a freelance
DBA. Though the people changed and offices changed one
thing didn’t change - the need, almost every time, to design
and implement a database build process that could be used for
the new project. Every time, he learnt lessons from
the previous mistakes and from the pro’s and con’s of the
various methods he had employed in the past.
One day he finally realised what was happening, he
was re-inventing the wheel each time and getting more and more
fed up with the whole process. Then finally he and
a group of developers and DBAs had an
opportunity to design a build process from scratch and
think through a proper design. The result is Schemation
DEM – a Database Environment Manager which includes all
the functionality and features any
development team should ever require from a database build
process.
But things did not just stop with the build process
itself. After careful consideration of the requirements
of the process, the Schemation development team focused
their attentions to the way in which schemas and objects
named and to the way security could be maintained in a
database environment. And so the build process grew hand
in hand with a set of naming standards and coding standards
which went together in a nice little group of methods which
could be employed across a wide range of database build
scenarios.
Thus, after years of development and product refinement to
meet application team's database build requirements,
Schemation was born.
