Re: Unidata to Mysql

2006-05-08 Thread David Logan 
Hi Brett,

Which version of Unidata? I doubt very much if the migration toolkit would
assist with this.

You will probably have to re-normalise the data due to the multi-value
aspects of the Unidata/Universe database. This would probably require the
addition of several more tables to cope (dependent on the original design
of the database).

Regards


 Has anyone converted from Unidata db to Mysql?   How easy/difficult
 is it to do?  Does the Mysql Migration toolkit help with that process?

 an old consulting company setup a website with Unidata and perl... we
 want to convert to mysql...

 Thanks!

Hello David,

Thanks for the response.  I don't know which version yet.  I just 
started a month ago with the company and am just starting on this 
project.  I will find out.  The site has not been updated in 5 years 
though... so the Unidata database must be at least 6 years old.
