Core Capabilities

Everything you need for database release management

From dryrun to production — DRM covers the full deployment lifecycle across every major database platform.

Parallel Deployments

Deploy to multiple targets simultaneously. Parallel execution cuts deployment times and costs by up to 50%.

DryRun & Align

Preview deployments before executing with --dryrun. Use --align to sync a target DB to a known release state without a full deploy.

Multi-Platform

Native support for MSSQL, PostgreSQL, and Oracle. Integrates with Liquibase, Flyway, and SQLPackage — use the tools you already have.

AES Encryption

Connection strings and the DRM database are AES-encrypted at rest. Sensitive parameters are masked in all log output.

Self-Recovery

Intelligent retry mechanisms ensure deployments complete successfully even in challenging network or database conditions.

Open Source

drm-cli is open source on GitHub and published to npm. Install in one command: npm install -g drm-cli

Product

Data Release Manager CLI

A unified tool by D-Band for managing and deploying database releases across MSSQL, PostgreSQL, and Oracle. Supports SQLite and JSON as the internal DRM database backend.

drm-cli v1.1.0

Python 3.10+ core wrapped in a Node.js CLI binary — install globally with npm install -g drm-cli and get the drm-cli command on any platform.

Supported platforms

MSSQL PostgreSQL Oracle Liquibase Flyway SQLPackage Windows Linux

Deploy modes

  • --dryrun Generate SQL scripts without executing — preview before you commit
  • --deploy Generate and execute the full deployment against the target
  • --align Sync a target DB to the release state without a new deployment

Who uses DRM?

DevOps Teams

Integrate drm-cli into CI/CD pipelines as a single scriptable command — no extra tooling required.

IT Operations

Manage heterogeneous environments — MSSQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL — from one unified interface on any OS.

Enterprise

Enforce governance and compliance across complex multi-team data ecosystems with encrypted connection management.

AI Integration

From CLI to Natural Language

DRM ships five interaction modes — from direct terminal commands to AI agents that orchestrate deployments autonomously using Claude.

01

CLI

Human-operated · CI/CD friendly

Direct terminal control. Scriptable, deterministic, no dependencies beyond Python and Node. Best for automation pipelines and production deployments.

drm-cli deploy -c prod -r 11 --deploy --trace
02

MCP Server

Claude-operated · 8 tools exposed

Exposes 8 DRM tools to Claude Code and Claude Desktop via the Model Context Protocol. Claude calls DRM operations autonomously mid-conversation.

drm_status drm_list_releases drm_list_connections drm_dryrun drm_deploy drm_align drm_install drm_crypto_encrypt
03

AI Agent

Natural language · Multi-step autonomous

Tell DRM what you want in plain English. The agent interprets your request, selects the right tools, and orchestrates multi-step workflows — including automatic dryrun before every deploy.

npm run agent -- "deploy release 11 to dev"
04

Claude Code Skills

Guided workflows · Interactive confirm

Pre-built slash commands inside Claude Code that guide you through deployment with structured output and confirmation steps before execution.

/drm-status — health check /drm-release [id] — list or detail /drm-plan conn rel — dryrun plan /drm-deploy conn rel — guided deploy
05

npm Script

Human-operated · Node.js native

Run DRM directly as a Node.js script from within your project — no global install required. Ideal for Node.js teams embedding DRM into existing toolchains.

npm run drm -- deploy -c prod -r 11 --deploy
Mode Operated by Best for Safety
CLI Human Scripts, CI/CD, debugging Manual

MCP Claude Claude Code integration Manual confirm
Agent Claude Complex multi-step workflows Auto dryrun first
