We're excited to introduce HexaBridge for SQL Server, our new runtime compatibility layer that brings deep SQL Server compatibility to Community PostgreSQL - with no proprietary PostgreSQL fork required.
Explore HexaBridge and its capabilities, here.
HexaBridge enables SQL Server applications to run on PostgreSQL by providing native support for SQL Server's built-in T-SQL functions, data types, and operators. Combined with HexaRocket, it significantly reduces the manual effort traditionally required during SQL Server to PostgreSQL migrations.
Migrating from SQL Server to PostgreSQL isn't just about converting schemas and application code. SQL Server workloads rely heavily on built-in functionality that isn't available natively in PostgreSQL.
HexaBridge closes this gap by delivering SQL Server runtime compatibility directly inside Community PostgreSQL, allowing migrated applications to preserve their original behavior.
180+ SQL Server Functions & Aggregates
Including support for:
Native SQL Server Data Types
Including:
SQL Server Operators
Including SQL Server string concatenation and complete hierarchyid operator support.
SQL Server-Compatible Compression
Support for COMPRESS and DECOMPRESS, fully byte-compatible with SQL Server.
HexaBridge faithfully reproduces SQL Server behaviors that simple code conversion cannot address, including:
HexaBridge is delivered as a standard PostgreSQL extension.
No proprietary database.
No commercial PostgreSQL fork.
Simply install the extension and enable SQL Server compatibility on the PostgreSQL you already trust.
HexaBridge provides the runtime compatibility layer.
HexaRocket provides:
Together, they enable near 100% automated SQL Server → PostgreSQL migrations, dramatically reducing manual rewrites and migration complexity.
HexaCluster provides end-to-end migration and modernization services alongside HexaRocket, including:
