Migration is a process of moving data and applications from one operating environment to another operating environment. Such environments are relational database management systems for small businesses to enterprise server database management systems for large organizations. Examples of these environments are Oracle, MySQL, SYBASE, Visual FoxPRO, and Microsoft Access. All of these applications can be migrated to Microsoft SQL Server. |
