Prisma Schema
Prisma CLI Database
2. prisma db pull
Introspection ow
1. Change database schema (SQL)
3. read schema
4. database schema
5. Update

Limitations
MongoDb is not supported (use prisma db push)
Switch DB Provider is not supported

Seeding
Prisma exposes us a command for seeding the db
It runs on
prisma migrate dev
prisma migrate reset
manually
It can be written in typescript, go, sql…
--skip-seed allows skipping

N.B. Use a CI/CD ow for your deployment

Cons
Newby
Don’t manage multiple provider concurrency
Splitting schema not implemented out-of-the-box (prisma-
aurora)

Pros
Wonderful developer experience
Type safe queries
Migrations
Custom queries
Active Community
Awesome documentation
Core team active in Github and Slack
