DB2 Migration Assessment and Planning

Analyze your DB2 environment, database architecture, dependencies, SQL compatibility, and business-critical processes. Based on estimated risks and effort, shape the optimal migration strategy that minimizes disruption and increases predictability.

DB2 Schema and Data Migration

Convert DB2 schemas, tables, indexes, stored procedures, and data to PostgreSQL, while retaining integrity and business logic. Verify compatibility, optimize data types and queries, and run accurate, safe migration for operational continuity.

Stored Procedure and SQL Conversion

Transform DB2 stored procedures, written in SQL PL, into PL/pgSQL, along with database-specific functions, so the logic runs natively in PostgreSQL. We keep business logic, improve query performance, and validate integration with the PostgreSQL environment before cutover.

Application Compatibility and Database Refactoring

Update database connections, queries, and dependencies to enable a smooth run of your applications with PostgreSQL. Refactor database structures and logic for enhanced maintainability and compatibility with the modernized systems.

Performance Optimization for PostgreSQL

Refine the performance of PostgreSQL by tuning queries, indexes, and database configuration. We identify and resolve bottlenecks related to migration and improve execution speed, so the system scales under expanding workloads.

Testing, Validation, and Production Cutover

Check the migrated database through functional, performance, and data integrity testing before initiation. We conduct a controlled cutover with minimal downtime, making the transition safe and the PostgreSQL operations stable from the very beginning.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    With DB2 to Postgres migration, you can cut licensing costs, break free from vendor dependency, and advance your database platform. A remarkable open-source database, PostgreSQL grants speed, stability, and scalability to meet modern business demands. It allows for implementing cloud technologies and spurs innovative expansion.

    Our DB2 to PostgreSQL migration process includes schema validation, automated and manual data checks, functional testing, and performance testing. Before the system goes live, we confirm that all database objects, business rules, and application functionality work correctly and meet the original DB2 behavior.

    If you have DB2 UDB PDF documentation, database specifications, or technical design documents, we use them to better understand the existing environment. It helps verify database objects, minimize migration risks, and expedite planning. This documentation complements the automated database analysis we conduct to collect the necessary knowledge about your system.

    When we migrate DB2 to PostgreSQL, our team necessarily adapts applications to the new PostgreSQL environment. We update database connections, SQL queries, drivers, and database dependencies. Based on the technical need, we also refactor database structures for greater compatibility, maintainability, and reliable performance in the long term.

    Our approach is focused on minimal business disruption. We meticulously plan migration and cutover, perform thorough testing before implementation, and provide a gradual, controlled production deployment. Then, we monitor and optimize performance, delivering continual support to ensure stable PostgreSQL operations.
