Abstract
A method and apparatus for migrating data. A computer system locates information about a structure used to store the data in a source database. The computer system identifies similarities between first columns in the source database and second columns in a destination database based on column names and compatible data types in the information. The computer system also displays suggestions for matches between the first columns in the source database and the second columns in the destination database on a display system based on the similarities identified. Further, the computer system receives user input to the suggestions, enabling reaching a desired level of matching to migrate the data from the source database to the destination database.
