What each one is

The product in its own terms, so the numbers below have context.

Alembic

Alembic is an open-source database migrations tool that provides transactional DDL support, auto-generation of migration scripts, and non-linear versioning with dependency-graph structure for managing database schema changes.

Independently observed

Django ORM

Django provides a database-abstraction API for structuring and manipulating application data through an object-relational mapping layer. It enables creation, retrieval, updating, and deletion of database objects using Python models.
