  2. Encourage the team to complete their just existing work since the team velocity indicates they are already struggling to meet the release goal
  3. Direct the team to defer the spike until the next release and add the action on the backlog for prioritization

  2. Monitor the retrospectives of two additional sprints before taking action
  3. Plan fewer stories for the sprint to reduce the database engineer's workload
