modernize database schema migrations with atlas

Manage your database schema-as-code for modern, reliable CI/CD pipelines.

It's 2025, but schema migrations are still a PAIN

The main advantage of Atlas over other tools is that it allows a "declarative workflow". This means that you no longer need to write migrations as SQL scripts that need to be executed in a particular order, as in Flyway or Liquibase. Rather, you define the schema you desire, and Atlas figures out how to get the production schema to that desired state

As applications become more data-intensive, evolving your database schema becomes a critical daily task.

But with DBA-level expertise becoming increasingly scarce, every schema change is a potential production outage.

Manually planning and validating migrations is daunting for most developers, and classic tools offer little help—slowing development and creating a bad developer experience.

Existing tools don’t cut it.

@ariga_io is fire. Version your DB schemas declaratively. Stop writing DDL (alter table, add column, etc). Visualize everything with ERDs.

Recently I found a nice sql migration tool that automates sql operations on dbs and automates pipelines on different git db schema branches. It is @ariga_io

I was debating on either integrating Byte Base or @ariga_io for my schema management and I found your [Atlas's] approach to be very intuitive comparatively. Awesome work 👏👏

Database migrations are often one of the most dreaded parts of working with SQL databases. Atlas solves this problem by offering you to define your SQL schemas in a declarative manner, without requiring you to use a specific ORM.

Generating and applying migrations is very straight-forward. A powerful and elegant tool, we are now integrating Atlas into our GitHub workflows. Atlas is a natural extension of the tools we already use and a joy to work with!

Atlas is leagues ahead of every other migration tool—especially drizzle-kit. After using Atlas in production for months, I wouldn't start a new project without it.
