SQL converter
Rewrite quoting, escaping, row limits and function names between 16 dialects, with a list of what it refused to guess at.

What you still need to do
1 thing this tool will not guess at
Array subscript
Amazon Athena / Trino counts array positions from 1, Apache Hive from 0: the same arr[1] is the first element in one and the second in the other, with no error. Adjust every index by one.
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 Amazon Athena / Trino to Apache Hive: Key Syntax Differences
Translating SQL queries between Amazon Athena / Trino and Apache Hive involves subtle dialect differences that standard text find-and-replace often misses. Everything below is processed entirely in your browser using SQLParity.
Identifier Quoting
Amazon Athena / Trino: "name"
Apache Hive: `name`
String Literal Escaping
Amazon Athena / Trino: Quotes are doubled (''), backslash is literal.
Apache Hive: Quotes are escaped with backslash (\'), backslash is an escape character.
Null-Safe Equality
Apache Hive: NOT (colA <=> 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 Amazon Athena / Trino and Apache Hive, SQLParity executes all parsing, tokenization, and code rewriting locally in your browser. Zero queries or schemas are transmitted to remote servers.
