Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Accessing the staging or production databases becomes problematic when using an ISP with dynamic IP addresses. The current reliance on IP whitelisting for secure access poses challenges when IPs frequently change, making it difficult to maintain consistent and secure connectivity.
