Normal migration changes require spinning up extra resources, scheduling downtime, or mitigating unplanned downtime from unforeseen downstream effects. PlanetScale Revert allows you to retain the active state of the database while reverting a schema migration.
PlanetScale uses Vitess to identify all of the data that was added, modified, or deleted after a deploy request introduces a breaking change. Replicas and real-time awareness keep your production database clean.
Need to revert a schema change? After deployment, you have 30 minutes where you can hit the “Revert changes” button on the Deploy Request page to immediately start the revert.
Vitess’ VReplication allows PlanetScale to commit changes after your deployment to both schemas, ensuring no writes are lost when you revert to your previous state.
