MySQL to SQL Server migration tools

Tuesday, January 12, 2010

Microsoft has released CTPs of two MySQL to SQL Server migration tools. There’s one for SQL Server 2005 and one for SQL Server 2008.

Here’s the tool overview taken from the download page:

Microsoft SQL Server Migration Assistant (SSMA) 2008 is a toolkit that dramatically cuts the effort, cost, and risk of migrating from MySQL to SQL Server 2008 and SQL Azure. SSMA 2008 for MySQL v1.0 CTP1 provides an assessment of migration efforts as well as automates schema and data migration.

That's good news,thanks!

I'm using SSIS for all kinds of data migrations.
Does this one add any extra stuff ?
Or it's just a free tool for those who can't buy licenses ?
