SurrealDB University's newest course: Schema internals and migrations
Blog post from SurrealDB
SurrealDB University has introduced its fifth course, “Schema Internals and Migrations,” expanding its existing learning options, which range from quick introductions and formal fundamentals training to story-based and hands-on database tutorials. The new 14-lesson course focuses on designing robust SurrealDB schemas with SurrealQL, including type safety, embedded logic, computed fields, defaults, events, and relations that reduce application-side work. It also covers schema-change management through raw SurrealQL before concentrating on SurrealKit, SurrealDB’s official migration tool. SurrealKit supports declarative sync migrations for development and controlled, reviewable rollout migrations for shared or production databases, including staged application and rollback capabilities. Learners build a multi-file project-planning schema featuring activities, milestones, dependencies, calculated progress, and graph relationships, with the course intended to be completed in one or two days while encouraging users to run each command for practical experience.
