Daily database management activities unavoidably incur changes to the database system upon which they are performed.

These changes have an immediate and noticeable business impact which
can be measured as:
Costs related to time invested in the change operations themselves (i.e. upgrading a database version from the QA environment to the production environment)
Costs related to malfunctions arising form change operations (i.e. loss of revenue due to downtime)

Costs related to troubleshooting problems which arise from changes to the database system (i.e. restoring a malfunctioning system to an operational state).

Change management is the collective set of disciplines and technologies that enable the IT professional to effectively perform changes to the database system thus reducing change related costs.

When implementing a change management solution it is vital to take the business needs of your company into account.
The company's profile will usually determine the type and scope of the organizational change management needs.
At times the most important feature will be synchronization capabilities between multiple database servers while at other times it will be vital to support database snapshot-rollback operations.

Many other usage scenarios exist for change operations, and a good change management solution will be flexible enough to support as many scenarios as possible.

Furthermore, the change management solution must be robust enough to handle large databases both in terms of complexity and size.
