Liquibase, a leader in Database DevOps, has unveiled Liquibase Secure, the enterprise evolution of Liquibase Pro. Designed for mission-critical applications and data products, the new platform unifies three key pillars: Developer Productivity, Secure Automation, and Change Insights.
Tim Smith, NetDevOps Supervisor at Allied National, highlighted the impact: “Liquibase Secure and the new IDE extension give us the confidence we need to move fast and reduce context switching for our developers. With this new release, we’re able to ship faster and more efficiently as we innovate at the pace our business demands.”

Alongside Liquibase Secure, the company introduced Liquibase 5.0, which formalizes two distinct product distributions: Liquibase Community, free for developers, and Liquibase Secure, tailored for enterprise-grade delivery. Pete Pickerill, co-founder of Liquibase, explained: “Liquibase Community is for developers who want freedom and flexibility to manage database change on their own terms. Liquibase Secure is for enterprises that need speed with enterprise controls for governance, security, and compliance, where every driver, extension, and policy is already tested and packaged. Both share the same foundation, but they represent very different experiences. One is DIY. The other is built for the modern enterprise that can’t afford to trade velocity for risk.”
With version 5.0, Liquibase now delivers two distinct experiences. Community remains the widely adopted free project, while Secure offers certified packaging, policy enforcement, drift detection, observability, and enterprise support. To protect long-term sustainability, Liquibase Community adopts the Functional Source License (FSL), ensuring the software remains free for developers while preventing third-party monetization without contributions. CEO Patti Soch commented: “Liquibase was born in the open source community, and that heritage continues to guide our values. By adopting the Functional Source License, we are protecting the collaborative foundation of Liquibase while ensuring the project remains sustainable for the future.”

Liquibase Secure eliminates friction in assembling drivers, extensions, and dependencies while enhancing enterprise delivery through Developer Productivity, Secure Automation, and Change Insights. It safeguards enterprises from misconfigurations, insider threats, and compliance failures, supporting regulations like SOX, HIPAA, PCI, SOC2, DORA, CPS 230, and GDPR.
Looking forward, Liquibase Secure prepares databases for AI by enforcing schema standards, lineage tracking, and version control across 60+ platforms. Its new AI Changelog Generator, now in private preview, converts natural language into production-ready Liquibase XML changes. Kristyl Gomes, Head of AI Strategy & Technology Innovation, stated: “With the private preview of our AI Changelog Generator, we’re empowering organizations to transform natural language requests into reliable, production-ready database changes.”
Additionally, the Liquibase Secure Developer VS Code extension embeds schema management, history review, and policy enforcement directly into developers’ IDEs, allowing safe self-service while retaining platform oversight. The platform also introduces application-based pricing, aligning costs with delivered applications rather than infrastructure, scaling efficiently with enterprise needs.
