I find your characterization very puzzling. It is the DBAs I've worked with who want to use revision control, who want to use correct database schemas, who want data integrity, who want to use stored procedures. They are the ones fighting against developers who never bothered to learn how to use a relational database and push the mysql/php style of "just make your app the database and the database is just a file full of inconsistent data, don't do joins, don't use view, don't use stored procedures or functions, don't use triggers, etc."
- Roboprog 14y agoEither you have been lucky, or my coworkers and I have been unlucky. YMMV. Fortunately, most all the DBAs I've worked with do in fact value data integrity, but, don't seem to care about other development practices like automated DB version migrations or reducing repetition.
