Migrating DB2 Databases to SQL Server (DB2ToSQL)

Description

IBM’s Database 2 or Db2 is a family of data management products. First released in 1983, the name Db2 was given to IBM’s Database Management System or DBMS. At that time, this database was specific to IBM’s MVS (Multiple Virtual Storage) mainframe platforms. Later, IBM extended Db2 to include other operating systems like OS/2, UNIX, MS Windows servers, Linux, and PDAs.  Db2 is designed to store, analyse and retrieve data from relational databases efficiently. Beyond relational databases, Db2 also supports object-oriented features and non-relational data like XML using Db2

Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system developed by Microsoft. As a database server, it is a software product with the primary function of storing and retrieving data as requested by other software applications—which may run either on the same computer or on another computer across a network.
