Procedure for migrating proprietary databases to MariaDB presents a tested, versioned path: analyze query logs with SQLLines, dump or copy data, run mariadb-upgrade and switch connectors. MariaDB adds Oracle compatibility (SQL_MODE=ORACLE in 10.3) plus SEQUENCES and packages so DBS Bank’s core apps run SQL queries unchanged after migration; MySQL 5.7 is drop-in while MySQL 8.0 needs a dump due to storage-layout changes; SQL_MODE=MSSQL appears in 10.2.3 for basic SQL Server syntax.
