One critical aspect during the migration process from Oracle to PostgreSQL is identifying any semantic issues that may arise when translating Oracle-specific code to PostgreSQL. Although Oracle performs both semantic and syntax checks during code compilation, PostgreSQL focuses solely on syntax checks during code compilation, leaving room for potential semantic discrepancies in the converted code base. This could result in issues during functional testing and application runtime. To address this issue, database developers working with PL/pgSQL code in PostgreSQL can use the plpgsql_check exten ..read more
