How would you design a CI/CD pipeline for a microservices application with dependencies on multiple databases? What steps would you take to manage database schema changes?

Designing a CI/CD pipeline for a microservices application with dependencies on multiple databases requires careful planning to achieve seamless integration, testing, and deployment. While orchestrating the steps of building, testing, and deploying each microservice independent of the others, managing database schema changes is also an important issue. Schema changes must adhere to application updates, cannot break compatibility and must also support rollbacks in case of issues.

The question is probing your design of a scalable, dependable CI/CD pipeline and procedure for database migrations that would enable you to keep data consistency, minimizing the downtime of applications in development, staging, and production environments.
