Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Criteria for handoff from development
Thanks to everyone that replied to this note - Rachel, Kimberly, Jared, Tom, Scott, John, Craig, tday6. I feel that I have gained a better perspective on what my role should be in moving a data model into production.
Thanks to all

Can anyone provide some criteria of what you look for when a data model is handed off from production? We are starting a large development project and I lobbied management to hire a data architect. As they have talked to these people, they are getting statements such as "and then the DBA will check out the data model to make sure there won't be any performance problems". I am concerned about what will be expected of me and wondered how other DBAs handle this situation. What do you look for in a model in terms of making sure the performance will be good? I said that I could look at the queries that would be run to see how many tables would need to be joined to retrieve the data, but the manager replied that a good DBA wouldn't need to see the queries, should just be able to look at the model. Up until this point, our client-server design tools have tended to protect the developers from doing dumb stuff, but now in the Java world some of those safeguards.
