This is a proof of concept module to implement an "expand" and "contract" method of database migrations. There are two main sources of downtime when using traditional migration (such as sqlalchemy-migrate or alembic): 1) ALTER TABLE can and often will take a lock on the table for the duration of the operation, which can be long depending on the row count 2) The length of time it takes to migrate the data after the schema change is done can be long. Such as moving data to new tables, etc Also, to a lesser extent, the length of time code needs to be stopped can cause extra downtime. This is necessary because the old code can only use the old schema and the new code can only use the new schema. This software tackles the latter problem of the length of time it takes to migrate the data, not the downtime from the schema change (see below for possible solutions). It tackles the problem by splitting the process into an "expand" phase which adds new columns (never modifying existing columns) and then a "contract" phase which removes unused columns. In between the "expand" and "contract", as software reads data from the database, the data is migrated to the new columns/tables that have been added. ALTER TABLE downtime -------------------- ALTER TABLE will often cause locks to be obtained for the duration of the operation. This can happen even when adding a new column with InnoDB. This is a potential source of downtime as the database updates all rows with the write lock held.
