// Why Drift

Stop fearing schema changes

Manual migrations break production. Sequential numbering creates merge conflicts. ORM tools lock you into specific frameworks. Drift treats schema as infrastructure code with Git-native versioning, dependency analysis, and automatic conflict resolution.

  • Git-based schema versioning eliminates merge conflicts
  • Static analysis catches breaking changes before deployment
  • Automatic rollback on migration failure
  • Works with any database, any framework

Loved by developers who ship daily

Drift eliminated our weekly migration incidents. We went from 2-3 schema-related production issues per month to zero in six months.
Sarah Kim
Staff Engineer, Vercel
The Git integration is brilliant. Schema changes get the same review process as our application code. No more surprise migrations.
Alex Chen
Platform Lead, Railway
We deploy 50+ times per day. Drift's safety analysis catches breaking changes that would have taken down production.
