Flyway vs Massive: What are the differences?
Developers describe Flyway as "Database Migrations Made Easy". Easy to setup, simple to master. Flyway lets you regain control of your database migrations with pleasure and plain sql. Solves only one problem and solves it well. Flyway migrates your database, so you don't have to worry about it anymore. On the other hand, Massive is detailed as "A Postgres-Centric Data Access Tool". Massive's goal is to help you get data from your database. This is not an ORM, it's a bit more than a query tool - our goal is to do just enough, then get out of your way. Massive embraces SQL completely, and helps you out when you don't feel like writing another mundane select * from statement.
Flyway and Massive can be categorized as "Database" tools.
