Full Convert migration in 4 easy steps

Step 1

SQL Server

We will choose SQL Server from the list of available source database engines. Depending on your SQL Server setup, you will need to connect using Windows or SQL Server authentication. Depending on your SQL Server installation, we need to specify the server name, or server\instance name in the Server field.

Step 2

Gupta SQLBase

We will select Gupta SQLBase 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.
