Moving from SQL Anywhere to PostGres - First Time

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

We have 700 user install base using Sybase SQL Anywhere 9.02

We are looking at migrating these installations over to PostGres

1.  Very Very Short Answer Please - why should we?

2. Does anyone have a utility or migration application to read SQL Anywhere to go to PostGres

3. Does PostGres handle column descriptions (ie: you can give each column a 50 character description) and then access it via SQL Result Set (like I can do in Sybase)

4. Is there any Date/TimeStamp issues and conversions I need to know about. I use simply a DATE field and a TIME field - but do not use DATE/TIME stamp fields together.

5. What UI/Developer tools (GUI) are available to manage the database as well as add/change columns rather than doing it via SQL commands.

Thank  you.

-Robert
