Database migrations let you change your database safely. You can add columns, create indexes, or move data without breaking your app. This skill shows you the best patterns for PostgreSQL, MySQL, and popular tools like Prisma and Django.
Making changes directly on a live database is risky. Migrations give you a tested, repeatable process. You can roll back if something goes wrong. The guides here focus on zero downtime so your users stay happy.
Learn how to handle large tables, rename columns safely, and separate schema changes from data updates. Follow the checklist to avoid locking your database. These patterns are built for production systems that need to stay online.
