It took a week of negotiations to receive such a file so I'm afraid to ask mySQL administrators to send me MS SQL SERVER compatible sql. Is there a way to convert mySQL dialect to MSSQL SERVER dialect automatically ?

SQLines provides tools and services to help you transfer data, convert database schema (DDL), views, stored procedures and functions, triggers, queries, embedded SQL statements and SQL scripts from MySQL to Microsoft SQL Server.

The easiest method would be to obtain a converter. There are multiple options available, but It might be difficult to find a good one: a lot of spammy options are available, all costing money ofcourse.

Adding a short exerpt:
If you check out the part called 'Using Data Loading'. The export file you allready have is probably fine, so you can go and skip 'Generating mysqldump Data Extract Scripts'.

Using the extracted scripts with SQL Query Analyzer
Generated scripts can now be used to create database objects and insert data. The preferred method to construct a database schema from MySQL scripts is to use the SQL Query Analyzer tool that is included with SQL Server 2000.
You can run SQL Query Analyzer directly from the Start menu, or from inside SQL Server Enterprise Manager. You can also run SQL Query Analyzer from the command prompt by executing the isqlw utility.
In order for the script to correctly execute there is some additional work required, which involves certain changes with the SQL dialect. Also, remember to walk through the SQL script and change the data types to SQL Server compatible types. The diagram below shows an imported script from mysqldump, it is important to note that the dump is an ASCII script file.

Also, MS-SQL doesn't use the ` (backtick) character, so you would need to get rid of all of them. However, some of the field/table names currently surrounded by backticks might be reserved words, in which case, you need to delimit those fields/tables with [fld_name] with brackets.

You could (re)create the MySQL database from the MySQL scripts you received and use a database conversion tool. I have used FullConvert in the past and works excellent. Supports many databases and is very fast!

I have one MySQL database and I want to migrate it with data to MSSQL. I have tried a few tools including MS SQL server Import and Export wizard, DataLoader, ESF Database migration toolkit, mysqldump with --compatible=mssql.

Although there are many free tools and solutions to migrate MySQL data to MS SQL server, none of them is able to convert views. That's why everybody who wants to migrate complete database have to convert views manually ...

Unlike SQL Server, MySQL is a much cheaper option, even if you opt for an enterprise edition. With MySQL, you can also enjoy a wide range of operating systems, including several Linux, Solaris, and Mac distributions. You also get a scalable database infrastructure with several additional features that have been tested over many years by a vast open-source community.

You can easily convert SQL Server to MySQL by setting up ODBC drivers and the MySQL Workbench or automating the process using third-party tools. In this article, you will learn how to effectively carry out SQL Server to MySQL migration using 2 different methods.

Without the need for manually setting up any connection drivers or the limited-feature MySQL Workbench, you can effortlessly carry out mssql to mysql migration using Hevo by following the simple steps given below:

The automated data pipeline is capable of helping you when there is a pipeline failure due to a functional bug or any other technical issues like a power outage. When the sources are SaaS, you can re-ingest the data by re-running the Pipeline.

MySQL Workbench provides a Migration Wizard that allows you to migrate mssql to MySQL Server to MySQL. However, you need to set up the MySQL ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) Driver to up the connection between these databases. You can achieve this by following the steps given below:

Before using the MySQL Workbench database, you have to set up the ODBC Driver to convert SQL Server to MySQL. An ODBC driver allows applications and programming languages to interact with and access Databases or a cloud application. You can easily set up your driver by going through the following steps:

7. Open the Create new data source to SQL Server window. Select Use user to enter login ID and password for SQL Server authentication (S) when you connect the remote server, and provide the ID and password. Click on Next.

9. Choose Any ODBC Source as the Type of Data Source, and select the newly made File DSN. Provide the SQL Server account and password to log in to it.

Because MySQL is compatible with many operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and macOS, it may be easily installed on a variety of platforms. Conversely, MS SQL Server has limited support on other platforms and is primarily geared for Windows operating systems.

MySQL is well-known for its scalability and quick speed, which make it appropriate for demanding applications. Although MS SQL Server performs well, bigger databases could need more hardware resources. MySQL typically downloads and installs in 15 minutes or less.

Oracle provides MySQL Installer, which makes the installation and configuration procedure simpler for Windows customers. It simply takes three minutes to install and set up MySQL products on Windows using MySQL Installer.
