SQL Server Migration Assistant (SSMA) is a suite of 5 tools designed to automate migrations from Oracle, Access, DB2, MySQL and SAP ASE (formerly SAP Sybase ASE) to Microsoft SQL. It automates the conversion of database schemas to a Microsoft SQL Server schemas, deployment of the schemas, data migration to the target SQL Server (see below for supported versions), and validation of migrated objects.
The latest releases of SSMA for Oracle enables automatic partition conversion for Oracle partitioned tables while migrating to Azure SQL and SQL on-premises. You can leverage your Oracle partition strategy and accelerate your migration by retaining the partition model even when there is no direct type mapping in SQL. Moreover you can now automatically convert SKIP LOCKED
clause and save significant development time.
