Watcom SQL vs T-SQL differences
Proprietary Sybase IQ SQL syntax must be reworked for T-SQL. Our engineers handle the translation with automated tools and manual review, preserving business logic without breaking queries.
Sybase IQ-specific indexes (HG, CMP, etc.)
Index types like High_Group and Compare don’t exist in SQL Server. We map them to Columnstore or B-tree equivalents, maintaining query performance without your team learning new index internals.
Legacy scheduling and job dependencies
Third-party schedulers tied to Sybase IQ binaries need reconfiguration. We decouple jobs and test scheduling on SQL Server Agent or your existing scheduler before cutover.
SAP Sybase IQ → Microsoft SQL Server migration — your questions answered
Can I keep my Sybase IQ running while we migrate?+
Yes. We keep your legacy platform under vendor support for as long as your contract is active. You migrate on your timeline, not a forced cutover. If the renewal lapses, our third-party support handles most operational issues on Sybase IQ while you complete the move.
How do you handle Watcom SQL vs T-SQL differences?+
We use automated syntax conversion plus manual code review by engineers who know both dialects. Stored procedures, functions, and triggers are rewritten to T-SQL, tested against your workloads.
What about Sybase IQ-specific indexes like HG and CMP?+
We map them to SQL Server Columnstore indexes for analytic queries, or to B-tree indexes for point lookups. Performance is benchmarked and tuned before go-live.
How do you deal with scheduling jobs tied to Sybase IQ binaries?+
We audit your job dependencies, re-point them to SQL Server Agent or your existing scheduler, and run parallel tests to ensure no missed triggers.
