...Yes, Liquibase IS much more powerful then Flyway!<br /><br />But…<br /><br />It requires considerable efforts and expenses to have each and every team member understand its interface and operation.<br /><br />Anyone, short of being seriously mentally challenged, can successfully apply Flyway's approach - "we've been doing this all along manually, by hand, now it just has been automated - Great!".<br /><br />Within our current project (academical, but it includes real pilot users driving real cars), Flyway successfully managed to advance from development supplied "reset-to-initial-master-data" deploys to continuous pilot usage within 48 (time) hours, including code integration and team acceptance and database vendor specific DDL (yes, it's MS SQL Server) . Ramp-up costs were too minuscule to even justify a business case. <br /><br />All-in-all I was VERY pleased about Flyway's approach: If Liquibase might be considered an IT department framework solution, Flyway, in comparison, can be used like an iPhone app - anyone can put it to productive use within minutes - literally.<br /><br />BTW: If you're both, a start-up venture AND using MS SQL Server (quite unlikely IMHO), take a look at xSQL offerings (free for Express edition). Both schema and content diffs are being handled in way that accelerates from 0 to 100 within just 5 minutes - a perfect match for Flyway - end of ad :-)<br /><br />Regards,<br />ReinerReiner Saddeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280091287798778739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517292.post-81732437276499086372012-01-04T12:26:06.596+01:002012-01-04T12:26:06.596+01:00you should read what Grails 2.0 is doing with liqu...you should read what Grails 2.0 is doing with liquibase http://blog.springsource.org/2011/08/17/countdown-to-grails-2-0-database-migrations/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517292.post-54282719930253302772012-01-04T08:18:39.735+01:002012-01-04T08:18:39.735+01:00Hi thank you for reading my blog.

If you want you can read about Liquibase in my entry http://alexsotob.blogspot.com/2011/02/imba-wimbo-wa-upepo-wakati-unajiwa-na.html<br /><br />But personally I prefer Flyway rather than Liquibase, I find that Flyway is more "agile" than Liquibase.<br /><br />Alex.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03336355786853564350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517292.post-5735998698640121492012-01-03T20:06:25.537+01:002012-01-03T20:06:25.537+01:00do yourself a favor : use liquibase insteaddo yourself a favor : use liquibase insteadAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
