Your Proven Path: SQL Server to MariaDB Migration
Migrating Microsoft SQL Server to MariaDB is a well-understood project. We assess, convert, migrate, and test – with a fixed scope and senior engineers. Your legacy platform stays on vendor support until you’re ready.
The lowest-cost way off Microsoft SQL Server: our migration tooling automates the repetitive work —you pay senior engineers for judgment, not keystrokes.

Syntax & auth lock-in
Deep T-SQL syntax dependencies and Windows Authentication that seem impossible to untangle.
SSIS integration
SSIS tasks tightly integrated with SQL Server, delaying your move to open‑source infrastructure.
License renewal pressure
Vendor license renewal deadlines forcing a rushed, risky cutover instead of a planned migration.
Microsoft SQL Server → MariaDB migration — your questions answered
Can we migrate SQL Server to MariaDB without rewriting all T-SQL?+
Our assessment identifies incompatible T-SQL syntax; we automate most conversions using proven rules and tools.
What about Windows Authentication dependencies?+
We map Windows Authentication to MariaDB’s authentication plugins and guide your team through the transition.
We rely on SSIS – how do you convert those tasks?+
SSIS tasks are evaluated and replaced with open-source ETL alternatives, keeping your data pipelines intact.
What if our vendor support lapses mid-migration?+
If your vendor renewal lapses, our third-party support covers most operational issues on SQL Server while we complete the migration.
