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 Azure SQL compared to Oracle RDB . 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:

array
varchar(max)
binary_double
float(53)
binary_float
float
blob
varbinary(max)
char
varchar(max) (if precision > 8000)
clob
varchar(max)
date
datetime2 (if version >= 10)
date
datetime (if version < 10)
interval day to second
varchar(29)
interval year to month
varchar(13)
long
varchar(max)
long raw
varbinary(max)
nchar
nvarchar(max) (if precision > 4000)
nclob
nvarchar(max)
number
decimal
nvarchar2
nvarchar(max) (if precision > 4000)
raw
varbinary
rowid
char(16)
sdo_geometry
geometry
timestamp
datetime2 (if version >= 10)
timestamp
datetime (if version < 10)
urowid
char(16)
varchar2
varchar(max) (if precision > 8000)
xmltype

Full Convert migration in 4 easy steps

Step 1

Oracle RDB

We will select Oracle RDB from the drop down and fill out the connection parameters.

Step 2

Azure SQL

We will choose SQL Azure from the list of available source database engines, as SQL Azure is just a special version of SQL Server. To connect to SQL Azure, you will need to use your server URL in the Server field, and the rest is standard (username, password, database name). Just make sure to connect using SQL Server authentication instead of Windows authentication.

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.
