More indexes = better performance = myth
We've seen tables with 20 indexes taking up nearly as much space as the data itself (most never earning their keep).
The fix: check usage stats, test simple first, add complexity only when the numbers justify it.

An hour of database downtime can cost mid-market enterprises hundreds of thousands of dollars, sometimes tens of millions once rework and delays stack up.
The fix isn't shipping slower. It's catching problems while the code's still cheap to fix.

Blue-green deployments made zero-downtime app releases the norm. But can the database keep up?
Tonie Huizer explains how the Expand-Contract pattern lets old and new app versions run safely on one shared database, keeping it controlled and visible.

It's 3am and there's an outage. Are you really in the mood to learn a new database platform too?
@way0utwest , @DBAKevlar , Grant Fritchey and Pat Wright get honest about why "lift and shift" often isn't the best method.

Database DevOps has come a long way, but for many, the database is still the part of the pipeline that gets left behind.
As AI speeds up the pace of change, that gap gets harder to ignore. Speed and control shouldn't be a trade-off.
