Umzug is a framework-agnostic migration tool for Node.js that provides a clean programmatic and CLI API for running and rolling back migration tasks. It is database agnostic and supports multiple storages for tracking applied migrations, with Sequelize being the most commonly used.

Use cases

• run database migrations in a node.js app
• roll back database schema changes
• manage migrations without being tied to an ORM
• run migrations programmatically from code
• write database migrations in TypeScript
• track applied migrations in a database table
• run migrations from the command line

When to choose

• you need database migrations in a Node.js project with any ORM or database
• you want a programmatic migration API rather than only a CLI
• you use Sequelize and want first-class migration support
• you want to write migrations in TypeScript

When to avoid

• you need migrations for a non-JavaScript stack
• you want a full ORM with built-in migration generation from models
• you need zero-config migrations for a specific framework that ships its own tooling
