AWS Database Migration Service vs. Liquibase

As stated previously, AWS Database Migration Service excels when replicating very specific data elements between environments. AWS Database Migration Service handles replication tasks to load equipment assets or customer job sites from production to QA databases very well. Full load replication - e.g., we need an exact copy of the production database in another region - works well. But when we need to load the QA database with the latest production data - it does work as well. AWS Database Migration Service comes up short because we do not want to wipe the QA database completely and make an exact copy. We want to keep what's already in the QA database and add production data so that we can QA with that level of volume. And at least with our database design, we end up having to do a lot of manual data manipulation and de-duplication.

Store versions of DB's and Schemas this is useful for every software developer company that works with Databases. Now days al the software use a DB and control those changes are a must. have the power to rollback safe has change the way that we work. This increase speed in development while increase the business confidence.

• It's a useful tool for managing database versions and aiding in the development of database CI/CD pipelines.
• The deployment and management of database updates are simple.
• It provides quality checks to spot problems in DB scripts and DB pipeline views to track changes made to DB.

• Reducing Compatibility issues, when we upgraded Liquibase from 4.2 to 4.9. The same changeset which we were able to run on successfully using 4.2, part of it was now failing when tried to deploy using 4.9
• We are not able to see detailed logs (for different changes) in uDeploy when deploying changes through Liquibase
• Liquibase should rollback the if any one of the changes fails.

We are and will continue using Liquibase and it has become an integral part of our portfolio offering, any new product is by default adopting Liquibase stack.

Build process is too time consuming and getting extra DB instance takes a toll

Liquibase's customer support is at the top of my list of all vendors I've ever worked with over my 12 years of experience. They work directly with you to be successful, and response time is second to none. Liquibase is committed to getting customers up and running and - more importantly - successful in their organization and becoming champions of the product.

the database deployments helped us with increased productivity,
faster delivery and low risk.

To be honest, the option of having a free community plan to start testing in a test environment, followed by taking it in production a few months is a great way to evaluate wether or not to do the subscription based plan.

Incentivized

• Set it and forget it for maintaining data consistency - moderate cost, zero to minimal maintenance
• High touch production data loads into QA - negative ROI engineering time investment far exceeded our predictions

Incentivized

• We need to re-educate developers to use Liquibase.
• In some cases, it is hard to align when several teams work on the same DB.
• On the other hand, Liquibase provides order and consistency in managing DB changes.
• Evidence and traceability are a plus.
