This was the first SQLPort event held in Aveiro. I was invited by Niko Neugebauer to deliver a session and I chose to explore the topic migrations-based approach vs state-based approach for database source control.

The purpose of my talk was to let audience know about the two existing approaches to start with source control at database level. After presenting the advantages and disadvantages of each approach I promoted a discussion with the participants so they could understand how, where and when they should apply each one of the approaches.

I would like to thanking Niko for inviting me and Ricardo Peres for the support in making this event possible.

Hope to repeat the visit to the beautiful city of Aveiro for more events.
