Handling PostgreSQL Routines with More Than 100 Arguments

When working with PostgreSQL, database developers may encounter a limitation when attempting to create routines with more than 100 arguments. PostgreSQL enforces this restriction by setting FUNC_MAX_ARGS to 100 during the server build. Although this limitation is rarely an issue, complex procedures, particularly those migrated from Oracle, may have a significantly higher number of arguments. This blog post outlines a solution to handle such situations by utilizing composite data types to bypass the argument limit, ensuring routine compilation without significant […]

How to Optimize Oracle-to-PostgreSQL Migrations Using AWS SCT Extension Pack

The AWS SCT Extension Pack is designed to emulate Oracle’s system functions, procedures, and other database objects within PostgreSQL. This emulation is achieved by creating a special schema in PostgreSQL, named aws_oracle_ext, where these functions and objects are stored. This pack simplifies migration by replacing Oracle-specific calls with their PostgreSQL equivalents, ensuring that the code functions correctly post-migration. For example, consider the following transformations: Oracle PostgreSQL SELECT sysdate FROM dual; SELECT aws_oracle_ext.sysdate() SELECT to_char(sysdate, ‘dd.mm.yyyy hh24:mi:ss’), to_char(sysdate, ‘dd.mm.rrrr’) FROM dual; […]
