DATPROF Virtualize is a container host solution offering advanced database virtualization capabilities in conjunction with DATPROF Runtime. Within a Virtualize container host, developers and testers can easily manage containerized databases through DATPROF Runtime. Virtualized databases allow for the instant creation and restoration of snapshots of all data and configurations, enabling users to generate virtualized or cloned versions of their test databases within seconds, without requiring additional storage. This significantly enhances the provisioning of test and development databases during software development and testing.

Traditionally, setting up a new database can take days to weeks and necessitates database administrators to execute complex backup and restore processes. Database virtualization dramatically speeds up this process, providing the right test data in the right environment at the right time.

With virtualized databases, development teams can swiftly create, modify, and destroy test environments without impacting production databases. This capability enhances team efficiency, allowing for faster iteration and increased productivity, ultimately accelerating time-to-market for software applications.

Snapshotting allows for the creation of multiple versions of test data without additional storage consumption. Users can take a snapshot of the data at a specific point in time, store it as a separate version, and easily revert to a previous version if needed.

Database virtualization also enhances security and compliance by enabling the creation of isolated and secure test environments that do not affect production databases. This reduces the risk of data breaches and other security issues while helping teams comply with regulatory requirements for data protection and privacy.

Moreover, database virtualization reduces hardware costs associated with maintaining separate environments for development, testing, and production. Instead of managing multiple physical databases, teams can utilize virtualized databases without claiming extra storage.

Please note that DATPROF Virtualize requires a licensed DATPROF Runtime to operate.
