A Smooth Modernization Experience

Throughout the Modernization, RiverMeadow displays the SQL version(s) and edition(s) on the source machine. Customers can then choose their preferred target version from a drop-down menu, a feature that becomes available when the source contains one of the supported SQL versions and editions. Additionally, RiverMeadow's intuitive user interface (UI) allows for passing additional SQL Server setup parameters to handle unique use cases. 

Combining OS Modernization with SQL Modernization

As businesses evolve, so should their technology. RiverMeadow empowers this growth by offering a unique combination of OS modernization and SQL modernization. For instance, you can migrate from Windows Server 2008R2 with SQL Server 2008 or Windows Server 2012R2 with SQL Server 2012 to Windows Server 2019 and SQL Server 2019 all in one motion. This combined modernization approach seamlessly upgrades your operating system while ensuring your SQL Server version remains in sync and compatible, thus eliminating potential system conflicts or inefficiencies.
