FAQPage Schema

How do I perform zero-downtime database migrations for schema changes in production?▼

Zero-downtime database migrations require planning reversible schema changes and executing backfill data migrations without locking tables. This approach ensures production systems remain available during deployments by integrating compatible ORM migration tools.

What is the best way to handle data migrations and schema rollbacks safely?▼

Safe data migrations and schema rollbacks involve running reversible database schema changes alongside data backfills. Using established ORM migration tools ensures that failed deployments can be rolled back without losing transformed data.

Does this database migration guidance work with Prisma, Django, and golang-migrate?▼

Yes, the database migration guidance supports integration with Prisma, Drizzle, Kysely, Django, TypeORM, and golang-migrate. It provides best practices for schema changes and zero-downtime deployments across these specific ORMs.

How do I add a new column to a PostgreSQL table without causing downtime?▼

Adding a new column to a PostgreSQL table without downtime requires a zero-downtime deployment strategy. You must apply non-breaking schema changes first, backfill the data asynchronously, and then update the application to use the new column.

When do I need to use specialized database migration tooling for my project?▼

You need specialized database migration tooling when setting up a new project or planning complex schema changes in an existing database. It ensures safe data transformations, rollback procedures, and zero-downtime deployments across PostgreSQL and MySQL.
