Liquibase has released Liquibase Secure 5.1, extending modeled change control to Snowflake's control plane. The update allows enterprises to govern Snowflake configuration changes with the same rigour applied to schema evolution, addressing gaps in data platform security and compliance. The platform treats Snowflake control plane changes as modeled change types rather than scripts, enabling precise policy enforcement, drift detection and audit-ready evidence. Features include stopping risky changes before production, standardising change delivery across environments and automatically generating audit documentation. Liquibase Secure 5.1 also expands database platform coverage to over 60 systems, adding support for Couchbase, AWS Keyspaces, DataStax Enterprise and AlloyDB for Google Cloud. The release is available now at liquibase.com.

Liquibase, the database change governance leader, reported strong fiscal year 2025 momentum with new annual recurring revenue increasing more than 85% year-over-year. The Austin-based company's community platform surpassed 15 million downloads during the year. The company launched Liquibase Secure and Liquibase 5.0 in FY25, with Liquibase Secure winning the 2025 DevOps Dozen Award for Best DevOps for DataOps and Database Solution. Liquibase also expanded platform partnerships with Databricks and MongoDB to bring governed database change to modern data platforms and AI-driven applications. Chief executive Patti Soch said database change governance becomes mandatory as AI increases the cost of bad data and breaking schema changes. The company's Policy Checks enforce policies before changes reach production, whilst Reports generate audit-ready evidence of deployments.
