Database deployments are often more complicated than deploying a web application or service as production databases are typically clusters or high-availability groups. They are often comprised of more than one node hidden behind a VIP (virtual IP address).
Database deployment tooling doesn’t need to run an executable directly on the database server. Instead, it needs to run somewhere that connects to the database over a specific port as specific user to run scripts:
- SQL Server:
1433 - Oracle:
1521 - MySQL:
3306 - PostgreSQL:
5432
The user account running the scripts needs permission to modify the database.
