Ask HN: Why don't engineers building data warehouses use a DB migration tool?
3 points by jahilliard 1500 days ago
I recently learned how useful a db migration tool, AKA schema change management, can be. Most modern ORMs have this functionality. - https://sqlalchemy-migrate.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ - https://orkhan.gitbook.io/typeorm/docs/migrations - https://www.prisma.io/migrate

I've never seen data teams (building data warehouses or machine learning infra) use something similar. I was wondering if anyone had some theories as to why?
