Babelfish for PostgreSQL is a collection of extensions for PostgreSQL that enable it to use the Tabular Data Stream (TDS) protocol and Transact-SQL (T-SQL) allowing apps designed for Microsoft SQL Server to utilize PostgreSQL as their database. For more details, see \"Goodbye Microsoft SQL Server, Hello Babelfish\" from the AWS News Blog. Quick Start WARNING: Make sure to create a database dump to backup your data before installing a new image to prevent risk of data loss when changing images. To create a new container, run: Example Data Use the example data.sql script to populate the database with example data. You can then query the database using commands such as: Advanced Setup To initialize with a custom username, append -u my username to the docker run command where my username is the username desired. To initialize with a custom password, append -p my password to the docker run command where my password is the password desired. To initialize with a custom database name, append -d my database to the docker run command where my database is the database name desired. This is the name of the database that Babelfish for PostgreSQL uses internally to store the data and is not accessible via TDS. Migration Mode By default, the single-db migration mode is used. To use a different migration mode, append -m migration mode to the docker run command where migration mode is the value for the migration mode desired.
