Redgate Flyway

If your application is running on many environments then some kind of automation for database migrations should be implemented. This will save time and trouble for employees and helps to manage migrations. However it must be understood that it is not a magical tool & should be studied properly so that it's limitations are understood & it will be used properly. Otherwise it might cause problems to the application.

The problem with a cloud-based tool for migration services is the cloud dependency. You are restricted to use the tool along the Cloud provider. Flyway gives you the freedom to use it in any scenario as long as you are working with a compatible database engine. Even if you are working on-premise and you don't have plans to move to a cloud architecture. Or even for sandbox development scenarios where you are a developer playing around with some project ideas. And you don't have to pay anything as long as you need advanced features, and not less importantly, you are using an open-source tool.

• DB migration is committed to source code, repeatable on all environments
• DB migration is fully integrated into development cycle
