Migrations-Checkliste

  • Freeze source timezone assumptions before any conversion (prefer UTC baseline).
  • Build a mapping table for source/target columns and expected output type.
  • Run conversion on a sampled slice and compare old/new values by checksum.
  • Validate daylight saving boundaries and month-end transitions.
  • Roll out in stages with dual-write or shadow-read strategy to avoid silent drift.
-- Example: SQL datetime to unix seconds (MySQL)
UPDATE events
SET created_at_unix = UNIX_TIMESTAMP(created_at_datetime)
WHERE created_at_unix IS NULL;

-- Example: verify spot checks
SELECT id, created_at_datetime, created_at_unix
FROM events
ORDER BY id DESC
LIMIT 20;

FAQ

What is the safest way to migrate datetime columns?

Normalize to UTC first, migrate with deterministic functions, and verify with sampled diff checks.

How do I avoid timezone drift after migration?

Store canonical UTC values and localize only at presentation layer.

Can I migrate from SQL datetime to Unix timestamp?

Yes. Use database conversion functions and validate edge cases around DST and leap periods.
