+1 for looking into Liquibase. I’d be interested to hear other opinions.

Hope you guys are doing good. As a part of the Airavata 0.17 release, we are faced with a industry standard problem of migrating our old master database to the new Development database, the effort needed to manually write migration SQL scripts is huge. Hence for the current release, I'm relying on DBDiff (http://dbdiff.github.io/DBDiff/) for generating Delta SQL scripts for the entire database and manually write scripts for complex DB schema changes. To address the issue in future releases, I propose to implement a database version control system like Liquibase (http://www.liquibase.org/) for Airavata, this will help automate the creation of delta scripts and also adding additional functionality like backward compatibility between releases. Please feel to suggest changes and also comment about the products I'm using to accomplish these tasks. Thanks and best regards, Anuj Bhandar MS Computer Science Indiana University Bloomington +1 812 361 9414
