Data Schema Comparison And Migration Tools
Jul 20, 2005
I've been testing a variety of database schema migration tools. Our
company purchased Embarcadero Change Manager a while ago but we've
been less than satisfied with the results.
We are looking for a tool that can compare a source/developer database
with a target/client database and then make the necessary changes.
The tool will need to update stored procedures, tables, indexes,
constraints, etc. The tool will also need to make the changes in the
correct order based on dependencies and relationships.
Anyone have any recommendations?

Hello Everyone,
Does anyone have experience in migrating data (not structure) from an Oracle 7.x database to a new schema built on SQL 6.5? Especially using third party migration tools, for example Data Junction 6.5?
I would be interested in seeing any materials you can provide or advise as I start down this path.
Thanks in advance,
Troy

Please point me towards some good trusted (possibly economical) Data Conversion tools for converting legacy system SQL 2000 (XML, Image all data type) db data to SQL 2005 database (and possibly to Oracle too) in a totally different db schema/structure.

Hello all. I am using Sql Compact Edition for a small standalone application, I create and build the initial database schema on initial startup. What I am looking for is a way to upgrade the software and on initial startup of the new version, I would like it to compare the existing database with a new schema and then update the database based on the difference. This way I can have a version that will update the database without me having to know what version it is to begin with. Is there a way to do this or am I asking too much?
Thank you,
Jim

Are there any free tools for comparing database schema's i.e. the same database against different versions on different servers?
Or is there a tool in Management Studio which will highlight any differences between the databases?

Following an upgrade to SQL Server 2012, our shop's Schema Compare tool (Redgate SQL Compare) is no longer supporting our environment.We are starting to evaluate various 3rd party products to find a possible replacement, and would be interested in what products are favored by other IT shops who do a lot of database work.
Our shop is split about 75% SQL Server, 20% Oracle, and 5% I'll call other. Ideally a product would support SQL Server and Oracle, but our focus is on SQL server right now. On that platform we have ~50 servers spread across DevUATProd environments.In basic terms, we need a tool that can identify schema differences between DBs and generate synchronization scripts to support deploys between environments. Real-time synchronization is not a requirement (nor desirable), as deploys are a gated DBA function in our shop.

I am running SQL Server 2008 Enterprise edition and I was asked for a way to export the database schema (Tables and Columns and their connections to each other) to HTML. I tried googling this, but all I found was paid tools that offer this and I was wondering if there is anything integrated in the SQL server or a free tool that provides this functionality?

Hi all,
I downloaded the Microsoft SQL Server Migration Assistant for Access 4 weeks ago. Today, I tried this program for the first time. I added one Database with 3 Access 2003 Tables to the Access Metadata Explorer. I right clicked Databaes on the Access Metadata pane and did not see the "Convert Schema" highlighted!!!??? What is wrong with the program? How can I make it highlighted? Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,

Hello,
I would like to use SSIS tool to move the data from one database schema to another database schema.
For example:
Source table has
1. UserName (varchar 20) (no null)
2. Email (varchar 50) (can be null)
Destination table has
1. UserID (uniqueidentifier - GUID)
2. UserName (varchar 50) (no null)
3. EmailAddress (nvarchar 50) (can be null)
4. DateTime
Questions:
1. What controls do I use in my Data Flow to make data move between databases with different data types and include new value in UserID as a new GUID and DateTime as a date (GETDATE)?
OLE DB Source, OLE DB Destination, Data Converson and .....
How do I insert Guid and Date at the same time?
2. I have many tables to do data moving. Any sugestions? How do I architect my project? If I create many data flows for each table - it will look complicated.
Please give me some advices here.
Thanks.

Hi,
Short version:
How would you accomplish comparing ALL the values in two tables wherein the PKs for each table are identical?
Long version:
SQL Server 2000 database with two tables
of identical structure having rows with some new data, some old data.* It's easy to determine which rows are 100% new by
looking for PKs not in the old data.
For the remaining rows, I need to make
certain no rows have been modified.
* Actually, there are hundreds of
pairs of tables as described.
The data comes from flat files, and I'd
rather use the database than Perl in this
case.
I can write code to generate the
list of columns for each table and then
query these as sets. Is there any
other method that might work better?

I am not sure if this is the correct forum for my question but I will give it a shot. I want to be able to create a dataset from an ODBC datasource and compare it to existing data in my SQL DB. If there are changes (inserts/updates/deletes) I want to raise seperate events for each row state. Is this possible to do with SSIS/DTS or am I on the wrong track with what I am trying to do?

I have a requirement to compare data between two tables in SQL Server.
What is the fastest way to do it using SSIS? There are approx 6~7 millions of records in each table.
My solution: Read both the tables and store the data in Object Type variable. Then run an except query. But I am stuck at except query part. How do I implement it?

I am comparing two fields one from our legacy table and one in our new table structure that should have identical text data. The new field has an assortment of ANSI characters where the legacy data did not have these. Is there anything I can do that will ignore all ansi character differences? The only route I can think of is just do a replace on each ANSI type on the new column but there are quite a few character types.

I am currently in the process of migrating data from Sybase to Sql server and would like to know how to test the data migrated.
As of now, we took one table data from both source and destination and compared it in Excel to check if the data migrated looks good (note, we used SSIS to migrate data). However, I would like to check if there are any other best & easy ways to apprach data validation post migration.

I have a cluster hosting multiple GP databases and a second for my data-warehouse I am playing around with (personal project).
I have scripts that pull data from all the DB's to input into the DW's tables(Customers,Reps,Hub....)
An example of my branch script :
select interidas BranchID,
cmpnynamas BranchDesc,
address1as BranchAddressLine1,
address2as BranchAddressLine2,
address3as BranchAddressLine3,
zipcodeas PostalCode
from dynamics..SY01500
Where interid in ('comp1', 'comp2', 'comp4', 'comp5')
what would be the best way to using these scripts pull the data to my testDW and not have duplicate data issues?
I was thinking of using a staging DB on the GP cluster and then building an import data package to run nightly. the issue i had was how do i avoid duplicate data ?

I have data in tables with the constraints turn on.
I would like to remove all the data from the tables and add new data, and also reset the
identity back to 1, without dropping the constraints.
Any suggestions??
If I used truncate table, I would have to remove the primary key.
If I remove the primary key I would loss my constraints.
Thanks in advance,
Vic

I have 2 Tables
Table 1 has
Id
Type
Table 2 has
Id
Type
PartNumber
I need to migrate data from Table 1 to Table 2 based on Type.
Type can be 1 or 2.
Example of Source.
Table 1 has
Id Type
1 1
2 1
3 1
3 2
Table 2 should have 2 records for each Id and based on the Type have different Part Numbers. Part numbers will be the same if in the Source table I had just one record with type 1 and if I had 2 records with type 1 and 2 - Part number will be different.
Example of Destination.
Id Type PartNumber
1 1 10
1 2 10
2 1 11
2 2 11
3 1 12
3 2 13
================================
As you see above
1. I need to duplicate records which had just one type in the Source table.
1 1 10
1 2 10
I will have 2 (1 and 2) types now, but everything else the same for the same id.
In my case I will have Part Numbers as guid. I would create them on my own. They will be the same here.
2. I need to have 2 records as it was before in Source table for id's with 2 types, but with different Part Numbers.
3 1 12
3 2 13
In my case I will have Part Numbers as guid. I would create them on my own.They will be different here.
How do I create 2 records for each Id and certain rules for them? How do I find if there is one or there are two records in Source and how do I apply my rules in looping through records? What control in SSIS tool can I use?
Thanks.

Hello,
I need a sql server 7 script that will migrate data from
my DEV dbase ON THE ALPHA SERVER to my WEB dbase ON THE BETA SERVER in a WINDOWS 2000 network. The data desired is for the field rig_id for rig number 0018. The shell of both dbases are similar.
The table is called rig. An snapshot is below:
DBASE name - DEV
TABLE name - rig
customer rig_id amount
Williams 0011 328
Borsha 0013 256
Kaila 0018 411
Yoida 0021 347
The rig table also exists on the WEB dbase. However, the Kaila data
for rig_id number 0018 needs to be added to the WEB dbase's rig table.
The Williams, Borsha, and Yoida data already exists on both tables.
I need to perform this migration w/ a TRANSACT-SQL stored procedure.
Thanks Very Much IN Advance,
Dave

Hi all,
I'm working on the data migration section of my project at the moment. The customer I'm working for has an existing system of storing client information in an Excel file. Now, I want to move all this information into SQL Server so my new webapp can access the information. The problem is, for the client details, I used an ID system. For example, each piece of client information can be selected from a list. In the client table, this is stored as an ID. Then I have a ReferenceItem table where the IDs are mapped to descriptions. So my Client table has numbers in it, that map to descriptions in a different table.
Now, the existing Excel files have the descriptions, not IDs. What I need to do is to write some kind of script that will automatically go through the table created after I imported the Excel file, check each description and find it's ID and replace that description with the ID.
Now, I don't even know where to start on this one so if anyone has any pointers, could they please let me know?
Thanks
Eoin

Table A
200 Rows, each row: X, has a unique value. Has 2 extra columns: C1 and D1.
Table B
4000 Rows, each row: Z, has a value that corresponds to Table A's unique values. Has 2 extra columns: C2 and D2.
What I am looking to do is update all 4000 rows in Table B to match the data set in Table A. C1 -> C2, D1 -> D2 following the criteria that X = Z.
All the update attempts I've made so far only update 200 rows within Table B.
Thank you for your help.
