A great open source tool to manage your database with version control
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate that it works with diverse SQL backends. We use their Docker container to reliably manage both local and production environments.
What do you dislike about the product?
Migrating large codebases to flyway can be tedious to get into the appropriate file structures.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are maintaining the core relational databases that support our business with flyway. We have realized benefits with reliability and reproducibility of changes to our deployments.
One of the best version control tool for database.
What do you like best about the product?
Very rich in functionality. Provide most of the support required for any database application. Version migration for tables and repeatable migration with flyway is hassle free. Flyway also provides support for adding default value to column when we need to add new column with not null constraint. Flyway supports most of the database . I tried flyway with PostgreSQL and SAP hana.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only one thing, versioned migration and repeatable migration is decided based on naming convantion. Which is difficult for any person who have not used flyway before.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have solved version and migration problem where the database artifacts for my application also needs upgrade along with my application. Flyway provides rich supports for these kind of changes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I strongly recommend flyway for database migration and versioning usecase. Flyway is very matured product and most of the use cases are bug free.
Fair tool
What do you like best about the product?
Out of the box integration with Spring. Easy to start.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no migration rollback option. Need to change the migration hash manually in database.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Each microservice creates its own schema upon boot. No need to maintain database in separate repository.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good for basic stuff. Easy integration with Spring.
Flyway the saviour of database migrations
What do you like best about the product?
Smooth integration with build tools like maven and detailed documentation
What do you dislike about the product?
Rollback of executed migrations are little tricky to do, and also, migrations are very strict meaning change in migration cause migrations to fail.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we used to manually execute the sql statements by raising a ticket to our Operations team,now with flyway we are avoiding the intervention of Operations team
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Please make rollbacks easy to implement.
lifesaver for developers
What do you like best about the product?
I used Flyway(Version control) in the last two companies and my projects; it's like magic.
1. easy to integrate.
2. no need to much worried about the DMLs and DDL changes in your database, has to write sql queries and flyway will run them according to the versions.
3.easy to debug. If any query fails can look into the version table and can rerun your scripts.
4. repair method is again a lifesaver(you can enable or disable it).

What do you dislike about the product?
1. nothing as such I like it and will recommend using this as it's highly reliable and easy to work with the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a developer, when you are developing something, there are lots of database changes that happen over some time. and the developer has to keep the database up to date constantly. So, either developer has to manually run the queries (which is very difficult to maintain and prone to errors). so flyway will do that for you. Just integrate with your code and use it.

What do you like best about the product?
Preventing Database mismatch when working with multiple environments.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not easy to change a migration after it's been checked in.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows to recreate database from the scratch.
