Depends if there's a database migration or not.

If no database migration, than maybe a minute or two (via GitHub actions).

If there is a database migration it might take a while depending on how much data needs to get moved around.

Adding columns usually takes no time. Adding indexes to a big table takes a few hours.

Oh, and if prisma fucks up it takes hours...but that doesn't happen since we just started pushing the prisma schema directly.

Their rebuild-from-clean documentation worked in 2 out of 3 environments...unfortunately production was the one that it didn't work in. At this point we're like fuck it.

At least it's not Hibernate(tm).

Do you have some good articles on database migrations in production ? I've had some bad experiences, e.g: a delete locking for a long time and no one being able to use it :D
