This is a software tool and migration process from SQL Server to DB2 Express.

SQLWays uses highly automated migration process of MS SQL Server databases to DB2 Express setup. As all the phases of this process are highly automated, the conversion results are very consistent. Members of the organization assist in the conversion process. This process covers everything from DDL to server-side business logic and front-end application conversion. The organization has a bank of 40,000 odd test cases and they use these to test the results of the database conversion. Initially you could ask for a sample conversion to evaluate if the process works for you. Target platform migration tools can be included in the conversion process. The production phase of the process will take care of converting database schema/DDL, server side business logic procedures and triggers. Front end applications and scripts, application conversion is also taken care of.

The company provides automated conversion. This process generates readable and maintainable code. Best practices of the target platform are followed, emulation of the legacy systems are not considered. Standalone SQL statements, functions, scripts and various code fragments are converted easily. The team that works for the conversion is experienced in various databases. These cover all the leading and most legacy databases and all their versions. These members also have experience in new conversion or integration tasks, involving different databases, etc. Comprehensive assessment and migration of embedded SQL statements and database API in various applications: Java, COBOL, PowerBuilder, C++, C#/VB.NET, ESQL, ASP, ASP.NET etc. are conducted automatically by The SQLWays.
