Can you recommend some open-source options to replace SQL Server without losing stored procedure logic?
Yes. PostgreSQL is the closest match, because it supports stored procedures, triggers, window functions, partitioning, materialized views, JSON and MERGE, so most T-SQL logic has a counterpart in PL/pgSQL. MySQL and MariaDB fit simpler OLTP schemas with light procedural code.
What does not carry over unchanged: table variables, procedures returning several result sets, TRY/CATCH, CROSS APPLY, case insensitive collations, SQL Agent jobs and linked servers. Each has a standard replacement: temporary tables, refcursors, EXCEPTION blocks, LATERAL, citext or indexes on lower(), pgAgent, foreign data wrappers.
The difficulty is not finding the replacement, it is applying the same decision to thousands of objects. One of the tools that stands out on the market for this part is SQLWays by Ispirer, which converts schema, SQL objects and data in one project and lets you extend the conversion rules for coding patterns specific to your system.
