SQL Server upgrade and migration services

We have a skilled pool of SQL Server consultants who have successfully completed many upgrade and migration exercises. We can offer you informed advice on the best way to tackle your upgrade and migration needs. Popular upgrade and migration services are listed below.

Upgrade from SQL Server 2000/2005 to SQL Server 2008/2008 R2

SQL Server 2008 R2 includes all SQL Server 2008 service packs and offers a lot of new functionality over previous versions, including self service Business Intelligence features, database and backup compression functionality, transparent data encryption and policy-based management.

Whether you’re simply upgrading your existing database server or migrating to new hardware, we will ensure that your critical database applications are safely and quickly transitioned to SQL Server 2008 R2.

Migrate from other database management system

We are experienced in migrating databases and code from other database management systems to SQL Server. We have performed migrations from Access, MySQL and Oracle. We can advise on datatype, coding, tuning and other issues.

SQL Server Service Packs and Hotfixes

Whilst SQL Server is a robust database platform, service packs and hotfixes are released periodically to implement new features, fix bugs and patch security vulnerabilities. We can patch your SQL Server as a one-off exercise, or continually as service packs and hotfixes are released.
