New in Flyway: Pre and post deployment scripts for state-based deployments via callbacks

Sep 26, 2025 By Stephanie Herr In Redgate
Flyway provides a lot of flexibility for releasing database changes in a safe and repeatable manner. Earlier this year, we added the ability to automate state-based deployments. This means the structure of the database is defined in version control and Flyway handles updating a target database to match it. The Flyway comparison engine does all the hard work of identifying what’s different and creating a script that will run on the target database to alter it so it matches the latest state.
