In a n-tier system that connects to the database with JDBC, how does a DBA keep developers from modifying the application schema without the DBA's consent or knowledge in a centralized development environment?

The developers can have their own personal database on their desktops to program/test with but we have a problem with them making changes to the main development database as the application schema owner. They know/have the application schema username/password since it is used to make the JDBC connections to the database from the app server.

Does anyone have links to defined change control processes that might help?

Thanks in advance!
