golang database
What it does
- Unpredictable query generation — N+1 problems you cannot see in code
- Magic hooks and callbacks (BeforeCreate, AfterUpdate) make debugging harder
- Schema migrations coupled to application code
- Learning the ORM API is harder than learning SQL, and the abstraction leaks
- golang-migrate — CLI + Go library, supports all major databases
- Flyway — JVM-based, widely used in enterprise environments
- Atlas — modern, declarative schema management
Requirements & configuration
- Use an external migration tool. Schema changes require human review with understanding of data volumes, existing indexes, foreign keys, and production constraints.
Configuration: SELECT
