| ## Overview | |
| Database migrations are an important facet of web development. Preserving existing data while seamlessly adding new functionality and tables is critical when making incremental database changes to production applications. | |
| Without a tool to manage database migrations, developers end up cobbling together solutions using manual SQL, error-prone communication processes, and costly risk management strategies. | |
| In this webinar, 2GM (Groovy, Grails<sup>®</sup> framework, and Micronaut) team member, [Nirav Assar](https://objectcomputing.com/products/2gm-team#assar), demonstrates how to apply the Grails Database Migration plugin in development and production. | |
