Product updates, SQL tips, and practical notes from the team.
When teams move from one database platform to another, the goal is usually clear: convert existing SQL as efficiently as possible while keeping the original business logic intact. But in practice, the hardest part is not always the first conversion.
Every database system has its own way of doing things. MySQL, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MariaDB, SQLite, Snowflake, Databricks, and other platforms may all use SQL, but they do not use it in exactly the same way. Functions differ. Date handling changes. That is where most traditional converters begin to struggle.
