When implementing database schema changes, follow these migration best practices to maintain data integrity and ensure backward compatibility:

1. Create separate migration files for new schema changes rather than modifying existing migrations. This ensures users who already ran previous migrations will get new fields added correctly.

-- DO NOT add new columns to existing migration files
-- packages/shared/prisma/migrations/20230924232619_datasets_init/migration.sql
CREATE TABLE "dataset_items" (
  /* existing fields */
  "comment" TEXT, -- ❌ Adding here breaks compatibility
);

-- DO create a separate migration file for new columns
-- packages/shared/prisma/migrations/20250607040909_add_comment_to_dataset_items/migration.sql
ALTER TABLE "dataset_items" ADD COLUMN "comment" TEXT; -- ✓ Correct approach

1. Use consistent naming conventions for migration files to ensure correct execution order. For this project, use 4 leading digits in filenames (e.g., ‘0011’ not ‘00011’).

2. Use database-specific syntax correctly. For example, with ClickHouse:

   • Include ON CLUSTER default for cluster operations
   • Use the precise command for the object type (e.g., DROP MATERIALIZED VIEW not DROP VIEW)

Following these practices ensures migrations run reliably across all environments and prevents data inconsistencies.
