What do we need to do to deploy version 1 of our software? Do we copy the database tables, does Lightspeed automatically build them? Then after deployment of version 1, we add some tables, add some columns to existing tables, etc. Now we need to deploy version 2. What do we need to do so that the deployed version gets these new tables, and new columns? Do we need to do this manually, is it automatic, or somewhere in-between? I didn't find the answer in the entire user guide. Also, if we add a new lookup table, say US States, when can we add the rows once? This would be after the table has been created. |

LightSpeed will not build them automatically so you will need to either use manual scripts or a migration to build the initial schema and then for any subsequent schema updates. You will need to manage any data inserts yourself either via manual scripts or by creating entities and persisting them as a one-time concern. Here is a link to the documentation for the migration framework in case you are interested: http://www.mindscapehq.com/documentation/lightspeed/Database-Migrations
