Productized engagement

Know what your migration will really take.

Every migration quote is a guess until someone inventories the estate. This engagement replaces the guess with evidence: what moves cleanly, what must be rewritten, what it will cost, and how the cutover happens without an outage.

The engagement

Database Migration Assessment, in detail

01

Who it is for

Organizations running SQL Server, Oracle, or other commercial databases that are paying renewal bills and want to know what a move to PostgreSQL would actually take — in effort, risk, and downtime — before committing.

02

The problem it solves

Migration budgets built on estimates fail twice: first when the estimate is wrong, then when the cutover is. Procedural estates — PL/SQL packages, T-SQL, SSIS and reporting workloads — hide the real work until conversion starts. This assessment surfaces it all up front.

03

What's included

  • Full schema, code, and job inventory with compatibility scoring
  • Effort model broken out by workstream: convert, rewrite, redesign, retire
  • Risk register for the migration, ranked by impact
  • Cutover and rollback strategy matched to your downtime tolerance
  • Sequenced migration waves with dependency mapping
  • Executive read-out of findings and recommendations
04

Deliverables

  • Written migration blueprint document
  • Compatibility-scored inventory of schemas, procedures, and jobs
  • Effort model with a costed build estimate
  • Risk register and sequenced migration waves
  • Cutover and rollback plan
  • Executive read-out session
05

Typical duration

Three weeks, fixed scope. Read-only access to the environment, stakeholder sessions in weeks one and two, blueprint and read-out in week three. No migration work is executed during the assessment.

06

What happens afterward

The assessment converts directly into the Migration Factory — phased, fixed-scope migration waves executed against the blueprint. The assessment's effort model becomes the build quote, so nothing learned goes to waste. If you take the blueprint elsewhere, it is written to be executable by any competent team.

Start free, then go deep

Our Database Modernization self-assessment is a free self-assessment you can finish in minutes. This engagement is the next level: we get inside your environment and produce findings your team can execute.
