What frameworks does this migration skill support?

It provides standardized patterns and examples for major frameworks including Python's Alembic, Ruby on Rails' ActiveRecord, and JavaScript's Sequelize.

Why are schema and data migrations separated?

Separating them ensures structural changes remain fast and predictable, while slower data transformations can be managed and rolled back independently without affecting the schema version.

Can it help with large-scale data updates?

Yes, the skill enforces batch processing and idempotency in data migrations to prevent memory issues and ensure scripts can be safely re-run if interrupted.

How does it handle zero-downtime deployments?

The skill guides a multi-step approach for breaking changes (like renaming columns) and uses concurrent indexing techniques to prevent table locks during schema updates.
