Fork the production database? That's like trying to defuse a bomb while it's still ticking!

A follower database? Sounds like a great way to test without disrupting the live system. I'm with Salome and Luisa on this one.

Option D is an interesting idea, but I'm not sure putting the app into maintenance mode is the best approach. I'd prefer to keep the app up and running if possible.

Hmm, I'm not sure about forking the production database. That seems a bit risky to me. I'd go with option C as well.

I think option C is the way to go - creating a follower database and testing against that is a great way to ensure the migration won't break the production environment.
