Mimer SQL Validator

Ensure that You Maintain Portability

All too often people find themselves locked into a specific DBMS because their SQL code doesn't conform to the SQL standard.

Here at Mimer Information Technology, we pride ourselves on conforming to the SQL standard and we play an active role in the Database Languages standardization group which determines exactly what is SQL standard.

You can be certain that your SQL conforms to SQL standards by using our unique Mimer SQL Validators. Also, use the Core SQL:1999 feature comparison chart to see the features available in various database systems.

Mimer SQL Validators

Many applications lack portability between different DBMS products due to vendor-specific lock-ins! By using our on-line Mimer SQL Validators, you can easily verify that your SQL statements conform to the SQL standard.

Mimer SQL Validator provides you with vital information on your SQL code. Does it conform to Core SQL? Does it use features outside Core SQL? Is your SQL statement incorrect or incomplete? Mimer SQL Validator gives you the low down on your code and helps you by providing a list of lexical units (tokens) and a suggested correction. Also, use the validator to find out exactly which words are vendor-reserved.

You are welcome to use our validator products below!

So where can I get these standards? If you want your own copy of SQL Standards, you'll have to purchase it. You can obtain a copy of ISO standards from the International Organization for Standardization at http://www.iso.org/. Look for "International standards" > "Information technology" > "Languages used in information technology" > "ISO/IEC 9075" > "Database languages -- SQL". The SQL standard currently settled is SQL-2003.

If you would like to read more about SQL, we can recommend a search on your favorite Internet book site for the SQL authorities Joe Celko, Hugh Darwen, Chris Date or Jim Melton. Or visit our Resources page.
