Examples
Below are examples of situations when it is not possible to convert data
automatically.
- Assume you are migrating MS SQL database to MySQL server and
one of tables has 0,1,2,3 sequence under primary key. The problem is
that MS SQL allows auto increment column to have 0-value while
MySQL does not. When you attempt to insert 0 into auto_increment column,
MySQL replaces it with first acceptable (non-duplicated) value. Following
this way sequence 0,1,2,3 will be converted into 1,1,2,3 that generates
error because duplicate values occur under the primary key. The solution
can be to remove auto_inrement property and replace primary key by
unique index.
- If you convert Oracle table having a lot of columns into MySQL format,
you may experience the following error: "Row size too large".
The reason is that maximum row size for MySQL table, not counting BLOBs,
is 65535 (while Oracle has no limitation on row size at all). The solution
is to change some columns in the destination MySQL table to TEXT or BLOB.
- When converting any table with more than 255 columns into MS Access format,
you receive error "Too many fields defined" because maximum
number of columns in MS Access table is 255. To resolve this problem
our specialists can either merge certain columns together or split the
"problem" table into 2 or more tables.
As you can see, there are a lot of bottlenecks and hidden catches in data
migration process. So why wait? Contact us at
