Liquibase

Liquibase’s (formerly known as Datical) flagship product automates the deployment of database schema updates for large enterprises that struggle with the constant state of application change across complex environments. Based upon the Liquibase open source project, Liquibase DB manages the database schema lifecycle for people who develop, deploy and maintain applications. Liquibase is privately held with headquarters in Austin, Texas.

Challenge

A provider of database management software to Fortune 25 companies, with an emphasis in financial services, Liquibase must ensure that its software delivery system complies with the security demands of these enterprises. Because its customers do not allow employees to use basic cloud storage solutions to receive files, Liquibase had no option but to find a secure software delivery platform that satisfies stringent security requirements.

Liquibase attempted to send its software solutions and updates via Dropbox, Inc., or Google Drive, but to no avail. Its customers required a secure file sharing portal specifically for their use, so that no security breaches would occur. Liquibase even offered to “FedEx its software” by sending USB drives and DVDs only to find these methods were also forbidden by its Fortune 25 customers.

Solution

Thru was the only solution Liquibase found that could do exactly what its customers required. Liquibase quickly implemented Thru, enabling enterprise employees to securely download software deliveries faster than ever. Using the Thru Cloud, Liquibase set up a secure delivery portal where software could be sent with the following capabilities:

  • Access global data centers where software files could be mirrored for rapid downloads worldwide.
  • Enable revenue recognition with Thru’s ability to perform an audit of all transactions.
  • Securely receive damaged databases from customers and easily distribute software patches and builds.
