Hi, We’ve been using Liquibase to migrate our changes (Oracle) across all our environments. Most Oracle databases have 2 types of tables (transactional and configuration). We are only migrating the data of the configuration tables.

Is there a way for Liquibase to compare or diff the data changes made in 2 databases (Development DB vs MasterConfig DB)? I just want to understand if this is even possible

Thanks in advance.

Hi @jjfranco, are you asking if liquibase can compare 2 different databases? The answer is [yes](https://docs.liquibase.com/commands/community/diff.html). Please not the differences reported would be in schema and associated objects. Not data. I would use platform tools suited for moving data between similar schemas.

HTH,

Ronak

Thanks for your feedback @ronak.

Understood Liquibase can differentiate the Database schemas but not the actual data (transactional data) inside those schemas.
