We're partners with Liquibase. We have a close relationship with them and with IBM. There was a company called Datical that provided a third-party package that integrated with UrbanCode to handle database changes. There's also a Liquibase open source project that provides capabilities like that. Datical just recently changed their company name to Liquibase. We're using one of the most recent versions of the solution. I'd warn other companies that it's a transformation of how you do things. You've got to take into account the people aspect of changing their thinking and their processes. Not every organization is as flexible or adaptable as you might think they would be to a new technology change. It really changes a lot of things such as trusting and allowing the tool to do things that you're doing manually now. I'd advise that new users don't forget about the process transformation that has to occur. It's not just the technical transformation, it's a process transformation. Overall, I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. It's done everything we've needed it to do.
Version control solutions are essential tools for software development teams, enabling them to effectively manage and track changes to their codebase over time.
