Database Drift Detection & Schema Monitoring

Atlas Schema Monitoring provides a set of tools and features to help you manage, monitor, and detect drift in your database schema effectively. Teams can either deploy an agent (container) in their database VPC or use a GitHub Action to track schema changes and report metadata to the Atlas Cloud control plane. Using this metadata, Atlas provides:

  1. Live visibility of your database schema with automated ER diagrams and auto-generated documentation.
  2. A Changelog of all schema changes, so you can see how schemas change over time, and easily triage schema change related issues.
  3. Alerts Use Webhooks or Slack notifications to inform or alert teams that need to know about schema changes or drift detected.
