DBConvert for Firebird and MS SQL

If you've been using Firebird for managing your databases and would like to switch to MSSQL without having to recreate everything from scratch, you can use DBConvert for Firebird & MSSQL to migrate information instead.

This Windows application features bi-directional database conversion, which means that it can also move databases from MSSQL to Firebird. It offers support for MS SQL Server, MS SQL Dump, SQL Azure, Amazon RDS, Interbase and others.

It facilitates a user-friendly interface with a wizard that guides you every step of the database conversion task. Worth noting is that it's possible to convert everything or to pick the exact tables, keys and indexes you want to transfer while excluding the items that have no interest to you.

The source and destination database settings have to be configured before anything else, such as server host and port, username, password and connection character set. The connection can be tested beforehand.

In the customization step, you can explore a tree with elements of the database from the source as well as pick the items you want to convert. By default, all objects are taken into account for migration. Insert, update and drop synchronization is supported.

For example, when it comes to tables, you can copy indexes, foreign keys and data. What's more, you can allow DBConvert for Firebird & MSSQL to overwrite any existing database and insert items in bulk, as well as to permit quantization.

Tasks can be scheduled to convert Firebird databases to MS SQL without your intervention. It's possible to create as many scheduled jobs as you want with distinct settings and write comments.

All aspects considered, DBConvert for Firebird & MSSQL provides a simple and straightforward method for moving databases between Firebird and MSSQL. It worked smoothly in our tests.
