Expose Hidden Changes in Database Schemas
The smallest details in your database schemas can have the biggest impact on your applications in the most unpredictable ways. Proactive alerting when production schemas don’t track properly can prevent days of negative customer experience and time spent trying to figure out a root cause.
Full Scope Visibility
Orca performs deep and total discovery of database schemas and tracks any changes, expected and unexpected, within a database and across environments. View change, compare environments, and enforce compliance in schema and database configurations.
Proactive Alerts
Get alerted when changes occur within your schemas not just at the structural level but with the critically important meta-configuration that goes with them like stored procedures, character encoding, credentials, schema security, and more.
Custom Compliance Rules
Orca lets you detect and alert on any changes as well as define your own compliance rules to make sure normally tunable values remain in-spec.

Orca comes with built-in support for deep discovery in the databases outlined below, with the ability for you to extend that configuration knowledge to any external configuration that’s not part of a database schema but still critical to your application.
