SQL converter
Rewrite quoting, escaping, row limits and function names between 16 dialects, with a list of what it refused to guess at.
MySQL query
IBM Db2 query
What it changed
current timestampCURRENT_TIMESTAMP1 place
What you still need to do
Anything left in this list was recognised and left as it was on purpose. A function renamed to one that takes its arguments in a different order produces SQL that runs and returns the wrong rows, which is worse than SQL that fails.
Converting MySQL to IBM Db2: Key Syntax Differences
Translating SQL queries between MySQL and IBM Db2 involves subtle dialect differences that standard text find-and-replace often misses. Everything below is processed entirely in your browser using SQLParity.
Identifier Quoting
MySQL: `name`
IBM Db2: "name"
String Literal Escaping
MySQL: Quotes are doubled (''), backslash is an escape character.
IBM Db2: Quotes are doubled (''), backslash is literal.
Null-Safe Equality
IBM Db2: colA IS DISTINCT FROM colB
Why In-Browser SQL Conversion Matters
Database migrations frequently involve proprietary business logic, sensitive table schemas, and production column names. When converting SQL between MySQL and IBM Db2, SQLParity executes all parsing, tokenization, and code rewriting locally in your browser. Zero queries or schemas are transmitted to remote servers.
