You have a website master right? This is the central point of contact if the site goes down. When developing an application, all members can code. However schema changes being done by many developers often can lead to trouble...
To avoid this problem, only one person (the "Schema Master") or the release pipeline should have permissions to upgrade the database.
Who is the "Schema Master"? What do they do?
If your project has a database, you need to select a "Schema Master". This is the one person who should review all modifications to the database. These include:
- Creating, Modifying and Deleting tables and columns
- Relationships
- Modify Controlled Lookup Data
The "Schema Master" in a development shop is often the lead programmer on the team. They are in charge of all database changes and scripts. Team members should still feel free to make changes, just get them double checked by the Schema Master.
