DBConvert
One-time migration with target structure generation, adjustable type mappings, and transfer of selected tables and data.
Percona Server Migration Tools
Use MySQL-family pair tools for Percona Server for MySQL, or PostgreSQL-family pair tools for Percona Distribution for PostgreSQL. Migrate once with DBConvert or keep a database pair aligned with DBSync.
Choose the Percona distribution and pair
The distribution selects the connection family; the other database selects the installer.
Percona Server for MySQL
The installer name contains mysql because Percona Server uses the MySQL-family connection.
Percona Distribution for PostgreSQL
The installer name contains postgresql because this distribution uses the PostgreSQL-family connection.
Choose the product for the workflow
The pair determines compatibility; the product determines what happens after the first transfer.
DBSync
Initial migration plus one-way or bidirectional synchronization for databases that must remain aligned during cutover or afterwards.
DBConvert Studio
Migration and synchronization across several database platforms without purchasing a separate pair tool for every combination.

Migration scope
Separate database transfer from Percona infrastructure work.
| Percona Server for MySQL | Percona Distribution for PostgreSQL | |
|---|---|---|
| Protocol | MySQL | PostgreSQL |
| Connect to | Writable SQL endpoint | PostgreSQL server endpoint |
| Validate | Version, charset, collation, SQL behavior | Extensions, types, collation, server parameters |
| Outside DBConvert | Cluster topology, replication, failover | HA topology, backup, extension deployment |
Handled in the migration workflow
- Selected tables, fields, and rows
- Generated target data types and table mappings
- Supported indexes, views, primary keys, and foreign keys
- Saved sessions for repeated test runs
Plan as separate work
