Database Migration with Spring Boot

All applications that get deployed to production should use an automated approach to migrate their database. It makes your job a lot easier. It also ensures you don’t miss any changes during the update process. That’s, of course, also true if you develop your application based on Spring Boot. The integration of Flyway and Liquibase makes it even more comfortable.

Flyway and Liquibase are two of the most popular Java libraries for version-based database migration. The general idea of this approach is to use a similar versioning and migration tactic as you did for your application code. For each version, you provide the required steps to migrate your database from the previous to the new version. Using Flyway or Liquibase, you can then automatically apply the required migration steps to update your database from any version to the current version.

This is very confusing, you're explaining how to use Flyway and you want me to already be familiar with Flyway??? If I'm already familiar with Flyway why would I watch this??
