  • What are NixOS's limitations?

    NixOS doesn't have much, if anything, in the way of state management for services like databases. The Nix-iest way I know of managing those things is to write Dysnomia plugins for those things. But you'll have to figure out managing their internal state yourself to do that, e.g., with something like Liquibase or Flyway or something like that.

    Depends on how the state is stored. If it's in configuration, Nix generated it and it lives immutable in the Nix store, so Nix will just point out it to the old version on rollback.

    If it's something like the content of a SQL database, which lives outside the Nix store and which Nix did not generate, you need some other tool (like a filesystem snapshot, maybe) to perform the rollback. I think CoW filesystems sometimes have performance issues with DBs, though, so I'm not sure that's always the approach you'd take.

    The Nix ecosystem does have a fairly mature tool for managing stateful components that live outside the Nix store, though: https://github.com/svanderburg/dysnomia

    It's been around for a long time. Idk who all is using it
