Shows how to export schema changes into Liquibase changelogs with SQLcl, commit them to Git, and run lb update so deployments are one consistent format across environments. Demonstrates idempotent change sets and the databasechangelog tables for deployment accountability, plus generating XML or SQL outputs. Also automates the flow with OCI DevOps and Terraform to spin up an Autonomous Database, run Liquibase, and verify success, arguing benefits: repeatability, traceable history, and safe CI/CD-friendly rollouts.
