In this guide, we outline the steps required to bring databases into a Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipeline. The information here is not about simply wrapping a bunch of scripts and running it from a “CI/CD” automation tool, but rather about truly leveraging the practices of CI/CD to significantly improve the flow of database changes through your delivery pipeline with all of the quality and guardrails that are intrinsic to a well-architected modern pipeline.
