Database Migration with Spring Boot – Pitfalls and Hidden Surprises
Tools-in-Action (INTERMEDIATE level)
Room 9
We all love Spring Boot. It makes many things easy. One of these things is database migration. One just needs to add either the Flyway or the Liquibase dependency to an application and migration scripts will be picked up on the application startup and automatically executed. Really nice feature which may even be considered as an act of true magic. 🙂
But is this really a solution which is good to be used in production? Are there any pitfalls and hidden surprises? Let's explore it together.
The Audience is expected to have a basic understanding of database migration libraries and the way they are used in Spring Boot based applications.
