Overall Satisfaction with Redgate Flyway

We use Redgate Flyway for deployment of SQL code to QA and Prod environments using migration scripts. Redgate Flyway app is used to compare the our development database state to BitBucket's ReadyForRelease SQL project and to create migration script(s). Then we use dev ops validation pipelines to validate the migration scripts in our sandbox databases, and then we use deployment pipelines to deploy migrations to QA and Prod

Pros

  • comparison of dev db and bitbucket project code base
  • creation of migration scripts.
  • keeping the migration history in every db and knowing exactly the state of the db

Cons

  • cleaning up shadow db has to be done manually at times due to complex dependencies in our db
  • improving the quality and speed of deployments
been using it for two years with very minor hiccups
