I’m a data engineer that occasionally has to work in sql server, I use dbeaver and have our prod servers default to auto-wrap in transactions and I have to push a button and confirm I know it’s prod before it commits changes there, it’s great and has saved me when I accidentally had a script switch servers. For the sandbox server I don’t have that on because the changes there don’t matter except for testing, and we can always remake the thing from scratch in a few hours. I haven’t had an oppsie yet and I hope to keep that streak
I don’t understand environments that don’t wrap things in transactions by default.
Especially since an update or delete without a where clause is considered valid.
