When an error occurs in production, the programmer needs to simulate the error to correct. But I do not want the developer to have access to all production data.
The solution I thought was to have a specific dump mechanism, where I generate a dump by changing the users' emails, which is what really would be confidential.
Has anyone thought of any solutions to this? Could you share your experiences?
What some companies usually do is:
The approach depends on what problem you have at hand. Sometimes a problem that occurs in production will not be / would be possible to reproduce in demo, or at least would require a very large job. Now you can really follow this approach of creating a production dump and changing the sensitive data, but in some cases this may not be enough for the bug to reproduce.
