We use https://github.com/jackc/tern library (from the author of the pgx driver). We run migrations in k8s init containers and we do not do rollbacks (only up). Advantages over other popular solutions are:

Rails 7.1 Released
> For example having database migrations built in etc.
I actually went the exact opposite route, at least when possible: https://github.com/amacneil/dbmate
Pure SQL migrations, regardless of the back end technology that you use, completely decoupled from how each framework/library views things and therefore not dependent on them (you could even rewrite the back end in another technology later on, if needed; or swap ORMs; or avoid issues when there's a major ORM version update).
It's really nice when you can generate entity mappings based on a live database, like with https://blog.jetbrains.com/dotnet/2022/01/31/entity-framewor...
So in my case, I can have:
* a DB that has migrations applied with dbmate, completely decoupled from any back end(s) that might use it

In general with ORMs, you will face a problem in one way or another. I ended up simply using https://github.com/gajus/slonik and https://github.com/amacneil/dbmate for migrations. My life is way much better since then.

New post: Is Prisma better than your 'traditional' ORM?
Would always go for a language agnostic migration tool, e.g. https://github.com/amacneil/dbmate to stay flexible and stay away from lock-in effects (besides sql).
