Making migration easy for you

Full Convert is a fully self-tuning software. Your migration will work as expected without you needing to adjust anything.

Data types are different in SQL Anywhere compared to PostgreSQL . We automatically adjust them as we copy the tables so you don't have to worry about it. You can adjust the mapping rules if you wish to change the following defaults:

boolean
bit
bytea
long binary
cidr
varchar(50)
citext
long varchar
double precision
double
enum
varchar(255)
geography
long varchar
geometry
long varchar
hstore
long varchar
inet
varchar(50)
int
integer
interval
integer
json
long nvarchar
jsonb
long nvarchar
macaddr
varchar(50)
money
decimal(19,2)
oid
long binary
real
float
text
long varchar
timestamptz
timestamp
uuid
uniqueidentifier
varbit
varbinary

Full Convert migration in 4 easy steps

Step 1

PostgreSQL

We will choose PostgreSQL from the list of available source database engines. Connecting to Postgres is straightforward - we need to specify server name/IP, username, password and database name.

Step 2

SQL Anywhere

We will select SQL Anywhere from the drop down and fill out the connection parameters.

Step 3

Start the conversion

All source tables are selected for conversion by default. In case you only need some tables, simply deselect the ones you don't need - or deselect all, then select just the tables you do need. Click the Copy your database button to get started.

Click the Copy your database button to get started.

Step 4

Conversion

Conversion is highly-optimized to run as fast as possible, yet provides top-notch reliability. Huge tables are converted in small chunks at a time, preserving memory and ensuring that your computer stays fast and responsive.

Data is now in the target database

Use our built-in database browser to examine the copied data.

Of course, you can also examine the conversion in detail and see in-depth information for each table.
