How to Choose the Right Database Migration Tool for Python?
Choosing between the three most popular database migration tools for Python - Alembic, Django Migrations, and Flask-Migrate - depends largely on the specific framework or ORM you're using. Opt for Alembic if you're using SQLAlchemy as your ORM or if you need detailed control over the migration process. Choose Django Migrations if your project is built on the Django framework, as it provides a seamless migration experience with tight integration. If you're working on a Flask application and using SQLAlchemy, Flask-Migrate is an excellent choice as it wraps Alembic with Flask-friendly integration.
