cross-service-migration-coordination

To coordinate database migrations across multiple services in a schema-per-tenant setup, use per-service tracking tables and table prefixes to isolate execution. Run migrations in dependency order using a runner script to prevent conflicts in the shared tenant database.

Multi-service migrations conflict in the same tenant database due to generic table name collisions and shared tracking tables. Applying per-service tracking tables and table prefixing strategies, such as identity_*, prevents these cross-service collisions.

The best way to prevent table name collisions during shared tenant database deployments is implementing a table prefixing strategy. Prefixing domain tables per service ensures isolation and prevents generic name overlaps when multiple services migrate simultaneously.

Yes, you need separate migration tracking tables for each service sharing a tenant database. Per-service tracking tables enforce isolation, ensuring services do not overwrite migration states and maintain reliable deployment histories.

To configure a migration runner preserving dependency order across services, define the execution sequence in the runner script configuration. Execute per-service migrations sequentially using isolated schema_migrations tables to ensure dependencies are resolved safely.

You should use table prefixing for multi-service database migrations whenever multiple services share a schema-per-tenant database. Prefixing prevents generic table name collisions, maintaining domain isolation and reliable migrations across concurrent service deployments.
