Versioned migrations on Kubernetes with the Atlas Operator
You can now use the Atlas Kubernetes Operator to run versioned migrations natively from your Kubernetes cluster.
Introduction
The Atlas Kubernetes Operator is a Kubernetes operator that enables you to manage your database schemas natively from your Kubernetes cluster. By exposing custom resource definitions (CRD) the operator extends the Kubernetes API to support database schema management.
In a previous blog post we demonstrated how to use the Atlas Operator for the declarative (state-based) workflow in which you define the desired state of your database schema in a Kubernetes manifest and the operator takes care of the rest.
State vs. versioned based migrations is a common and unresolved debate in the database schema management world, and we built Atlas to support both from the get-go.
Today, we are happy to announce v0.2.0 of the Atlas Kubernetes Operator which adds support support for the versioned migration workflow.
In this blog post we will demonstrate how to use the Atlas Operator this new workflow.
