Ispirer Toolkit Improvements, February 2024

In our monthly updates, we delve into the latest enhancements, novel features, and expedited migration functionalities within our products. It may seem that our commitment to refinement knows no bounds and we daily stuff the Ispirer products with new elements. This is true.

We understand that our clients prioritize efficiency, recognizing that time is of the essence in the business world, directly impacting profitability. Therefore, in our ongoing commitment to meet their needs, this month we have once again focused on enhancing migration speed. As a result, our SQL Server to Oracle migration now boasts a cutting-edge multi-threaded conversion capability. This enables our migration process to achieve a speed of 100 GB per hour, ensuring swift and seamless transitions.

Recently, Assessment Wizard got extended reports for Oracle to Java migration direction with a detailed assessment of the migration complexity. Considering that there is no limit to perfection, we continue to improve the reports and now the assessment has become even more accurate. Furthermore, the migration process from Oracle to PostgreSQL now implies an enhanced assessment of statements.
