This webinar will review the challenges teams face when migrating from Oracle databases to PostgreSQL. We will share insights gained from running large scale Oracle compatibility assessments over the last two years, including the over 2,200,000 Oracle DDL constructs that were assessed through EDB’s Migration Portal in 2020.

During this session we will address:

  • Storage definitions
  • Packages
  • Stored procedures
  • PL/SQL code
  • Proprietary database APIs
  • Large scale data migrations

We will end the session demonstrating migration tools that significantly simplify and aid in reducing the risk of migrating Oracle databases to PostgreSQL.

Context: A moderately technical webinar focused on how to get off Oracle, what the gotchas are, and how to address them.

Audience: Business owners and architects who want to assess the feasibility of getting off one of the leading, and most loathed, legacy database
