Database migration

Accelerate your database migration

Software vendors provide the tools for the technical migration from one database to another. Converting your own SQL configuration is your responsibility, and it is the critical part. EasyRec finds what needs converting and proves the result.

Configuration in scope

Everything with SQL in it

Before you can estimate the effort, you need the full scope. During the project, production keeps changing, and converted queries must stay in sync.

  • Datamart and reporting configuration
  • SQL queries
  • Reporting and extractions (feeders)
  • Stored procedures
  • SQL filters
  • Interface and messaging configuration
  • SQL formulas
  • Scripts with embedded SQL

Typical technical challenges

  • Encoding differences
  • Special characters and column sizes
  • Vendor-specific data types
  • Incompatible grammar and functions
  • Date formats
  • NULL handling
  • Stored procedures
  • Performance optimisation
Two accelerators

Detect, then validate

Root causes, identified automatically

A catalogue of SQL incompatibility root causes built on real migration programmes: vendor-specific data types, unsupported functions, date formats, NULL comparisons and more. Statistics on incompatible code let you size the effort before you commit to a plan.

Checks on both databases

Every query runs in real time on the source and target databases, with a comparison of row counts, performance (query duration) and data accuracy. Converted stored procedures are compiled in real time on the target database.

Outcomes

Control over the conversion, from sizing to go-live

Effort sizing

Know the real conversion scope early.

Faster delivery

Reduce total conversion duration and cost.

Risk reduction

Root causes detected automatically, not in production.

Visible progress

Follow the migration's progress with statistics, not opinion.

EasyRec complements, and does not replace, your official validation tests. On previous projects it proved a real accelerator, giving teams confidence and control.
