Auto-generated

Migrations are automatically generated so you don't have to write the SQL by hand.

Deterministic / Repeatable

Migrate generates SQL migrations, ensuring migrations will always result in the same database schema across environments.

Customizable

Generated SQL migrations can be fully customized giving you full control over the exact changes.

Iteration

Fast in development

  • Prototype fast without migrations

    While prototyping you can create the database schema quickly using the prisma db push command without creating migrations.

  • Integrated seeding

    Quickly seed your database with data by defining a seed script in JavaScript, TypeScript or Shell.

  • Smart problem resolution

    Migrate detects database schema drift and assists you in resolving them.

Deployment

Reliable in Production

  • Dedicated production workflows

    Migrate supports dedicated workflows for carrying out migrations safely in production.

  • CI/CD Integration

    Migrate can be integrated into CI/CD pipelines, e.g. GitHub Actions, to automate applying migrations before deployment.

  • Conflict detection and resolution

    Migrate keeps track of applied migrations and provides tools to detect and resolve conflicts and drifts between migrations and the database schema.

Seamless integration with Prisma Client

When using Prisma Migrate with Prisma Client, schema changes are type checked in your application code. This eliminates errors that arise when database schema changes require changes to the application code.

Declarative data modelling

Prisma Migrate generates migrations based on changes in the Prisma schema – a human-readable declarative definition of your database schema. This allows you to focus on your desired database schema rather than the steps to get there.

Version control for your database

With Prisma Migrate, generated migrations are tracked in your Git repository, allowing you to make changes to your database schema in tandem with your application code.

Streamlined collaboration

With Prisma Migrate, generated migrations are tracked in your Git repository, allowing you to make changes to your database schema in tandem with your application code.

Bring your own project

Prisma Migrate can be adopted in any existing project that uses PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, CockroachDB or SQLite.
