Alembic is the standard migration tool for SQLAlchemy projects. You run alembic init, point it at your SQLAlchemy models, and use alembic revision --autogenerate to produce migration scripts. Alembic then applies those scripts in order with alembic upgrade head, giving you repeatable, reviewable schema changes that work identically everywhere your application runs. As of March 2026, the latest stable release is Alembic 1.18.4, which supports SQLAlchemy 2.0 (currently at 2.0.48) and its modern declarative and typed APIs natively.
