Flyway provides fantastic capabilities for developers to gain control and track their database changes from the start of the development cycle through to the deployment to a production database. However, we have heard from you that Flyway could help you more by: 

• Allowing senior managers to have oversight of multiple Flyway projects in your organization  [failed deployment], easier to understand why deployments failed that reviewing CI|CD output. 
• Improving the visibility of your end-to-end Database DevOps pipeline 

• Improving the ease of reporting on your database deployments by removing the pain of collecting deployment information from decentralized sources.   

That’s why we are pleased to present you with the Flyway Service in preview, helping you to get more out of Flyway. 

Understand the state of your deployment processes across your organization to make better decisions
The service will allow you to see at an elevated level the state of all the projects using Flyway within your organization and to act accordingly if you need to. This will help reduce silos by allowing your whole team to view a history of database deployments without the need to connect to multiple environments to see the latest state of your databases.

Track deployments, detect and report drifts, object changes, monitor the overall health of your CI/CD pipeline with Flyway
The end-to-end pipeline view of your project will provide greater transparency and allow you to see in a single view which version of the database has been deployed to each environment and how far behind your deployment database is compared to what is in development. For each environment you can view the details of the latest deployment by clicking on show more, which includes the details of any pre-deployment checks, the migration scripts, and post deployment reports generated by Flyway.

Provide a level of accountability and auditability of your pipelines
Having all deployment stored in a single location provides a greater level of accountability and auditability of your deployment data as it will be available to all users of the services and not be spread across multiple sources and servers. With a centralised view of your pipelines, it is possible to ensure standard practices are applied to all database pipelines.
