Database

Model schemas for clarity, migrate in safe increments, and optimize queries around real access patterns rather than guesswork.

When to Activate

• Design a new schema or table
• Add or review a migration
• Diagnose slow queries or query explosions
• Decide whether an index is warranted
• Refactor a transaction boundary
• Choose data deletion semantics
• Review ORM usage for N+1 issues
