What happened to database administration functions? Are they retained by agencies or are they part of the data center?
Logical database administration (DBA) functions remain at the agency for all environments. Physical/operational DBA functions are the responsibility of the service provider in all environments. Agency database administrators and developers retain the authority and access rights to add/change/delete database objects (instances, tables, indexes, etc.) in development and initial test environments. Agency database administrators and developers do not have access rights to add/change/delete database objects (instances, tables, indexes, etc.) in pre-production test, training, and production environments. Initial test is a test environment that closely simulates development; it is the first stage of testing and is often subject to numerous changes. Pre-production test is a test environment that closely simulates production; it has minimal changes and is used for testing just prior to migration to production. Agencies may have multiple test environments, with at least one test environment desi
