James, I haven't looked into this recently. But I believe that the DDLs and data can be migrated relatively easy. Just be aware that software specifically written using MySQLs version of SQL is unlikely to work on a different RDBMS without extensive rewrites. This is the biggest problem people are facing when porting websites to use a different database. What is the reason for migrating and what kind of data and applications are you using? -- Joost -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.
