Following its $10 million acquisition of Flyway, Redgate Software has secured the future of the popular Open Source database migration tool by taking a new approach to software development.
CAMBRIDGE, England – December 15, 2020 – Redgate Software’s multimillion-dollar acquisition of Flyway in 2019 was an ambitious move to help organizations include any database in DevOps by using the tool to standardize migrations across more than 20 different databases and platforms.
