Must-have gems for mature Rails
gem "strong_migrations" - https://github.com/ankane/strong_migrations | Helps devs write non-blocking migrations, a must-have.

How does Rails handle out of order migrations (when working on different local branches)
There’s no real way to test, but you can use gems like https://github.com/ankane/strong_migrations and not allow to merge branches unless they are up-to-date with main.

When Postgres blocks: tips for dealing with locks
Half of the problems in this article are migration related.
I am extremely grateful that some people have created awesome libraries like strong migrations https://github.com/ankane/strong_migrations. Even if you are not using rails, bookmark its readme, it is an awesome cheat-sheet when writing a migration.

Why I Enjoy PostgreSQL – Infrastructure Engineer's Perspective
I would suggest taking a look at strong migrations[1]. It's a rails project, but the readme does a great job explaining what it checks for and what safe alternative to use instead. I still link to their explanations in PRs for non-rails projects.

Elixir and Phoenix after two years
> Ecto prevents N+1 queries by default, which I think is clearly better.
To be fair...
If you want to protect yourself from these with Rails you can install Bullet[0] and get protection through in your face notifications, and you have the option to let it slide because you're taking advantage of caching with Rails and in this case you know what you're getting into and the N+1 query with caching ends up being better because you understand your domain.
Rails also has the strong migrations[1] gem which is a huge help for not shooting yourself in the foot for running migrations in production by helping you avoid table locks and other issues / errors. But AFAIK there's no Ecto equivalent, but strong migrations is really really useful.
Rails also has the data-migrate gem which is a nice little abstraction for splitting out your schema changes and backfilling data in an automated way. There's nothing like with Ecto. This one isn't as useful as strong migrations IMO but it's still very handy to have this problem taken care of for you without having to re-invent a new strategy in every project or copy code over.
Basically all 3 of these things are something I'd use in every project in Rails but with Phoenix I wouldn't have these things except for N+1 query protection.
