In a microservices architecture, if two services depend on the same database schema but are developed independently, how would you manage database schema changes? Describe the processes and tools you would use to ensure compatibility and consistency.

Use database versioning and backward compatibility practices along with a dedicated migration tool like Liquibase or Flyway. Scenario Pressure: How would you handle deployments that affect multiple services simultaneously? Depth Trigger: Can you discuss the trade-offs of database versioning versus a single schema migration on a shared database?
