SnowConvert AI - Reports

Glossar

In diesem Abschnitt versuchen wir, die Konzepte zu erklären, die in den von SnowConvert erstellten Berichten verwendet werden.

  • Lines of Code (LOC): the total number of lines in the text of the source code files, excluding blank lines, that were processed by the conversion tool. A comment is considered a line of code.

  • Parsing EWIs: the total count of parsing errors that occurred during the code analysis process. A parsing error occurs when the parser (the component that reads and understands the source code files) encounters something unexpected. This usually means a syntax error, which refers to a code element in the file that did not match the SQL grammar specification that the parser was expecting. In other cases, these errors can also occur because the parser is not yet ready to support a specific grammar. Parsing errors are considered critical issues because if the code is not parsed, SnowConvert AI cannot assess it or translate it. If this number is high in relation to the migration workload size, input code revision is advised.

  • Unrecognized Elements: any code element (or parts of them) such as DML, DDL, control statements, with parsing errors that SnowConvert AI was unable to process.

  • Lines of Code in Unrecognized Elements: the total lines of code in all the unrecognized elements. This is a good indicator of how much code SnowConvert AI was not able to process.

  • (Top-Level) Code Units: a Code Unit is the most atomic, standalone executable element. In most cases, these are statements (like DDL or DML), but they also include script files because those are executed as a single element. They are classified as top-level because they are usually the “root” elements for a database dialect, and they can contain other “smaller” definitions. The top-level code units vary from one SQL dialect to another (Oracle, Teradata, SQL Server, etc). Parsing errors might cause SnowConvert AI to not be able to properly count all top-level code units.

  • Lines of Code Conversion Rate: the percentage of lines of code that were successfully converted by SnowConvert AI into Snowflake code. Take into consideration that unrecognized elements (because of parsing issues) will affect this metric, as their source code will be counted as not converted. Furthermore, a successful element conversion might not be fully equivalent in Snowflake because of platform differences or limitations. In these cases, while the conversion rate is not punished, SnowConvert AI will generate an FDM to alert about the possible difference in functionality. A 90% conversion rate for a code unit means that only 10% of its lines of code were not converted, and therefore, EWIs are generated for them.

  • Fully Converted Code Units: the percentage of top-level code units that were fully converted without any error in any of their sub-parts. They are considered ready for deployment. Any code unit whose conversion rate is less than 100% is not counted as fully converted.

Bewertungsbericht (.docx)

Der Bewertungsbericht ist ein Dokument, das die Schätzung der Codekonvertierungsrate und viele weitere nützliche Informationen für den Benutzer zusammenfasst, damit er abschätzen kann, wie weit er auf dem Weg zu einem funktional gleichwertigen Snowflake-Code ist.

Top-Level Code Units Report

Der Top-Level Code Units Report bietet einen allgemeinen Überblick über die wichtigsten Objekte in Ihrem Quellcode. Diese Objekte der obersten Ebene enthalten nützliche Informationen über den Status der Konvertierung und können verwendet werden, um Entscheidungen über die nächsten Schritte nach der Konvertierung zu treffen.˚

Problembericht

Der Problembericht ist eine Datei, die Informationen über alle Probleme enthält, die während des Migrationsprozesses aufgetreten sind.

Elementbericht

Der Elementbericht zeigt eine zusammengefasste Anzahl der Grammatikelemente, die während des Migrationsprozesses gefunden wurden. Die Zusammenfassung erfolgt in mehreren Spalten, sodass eine Unterscheidung zwischen denselben Grammatikelementen möglich ist, wenn sie in verschiedene Kontexte gehören. Eine SELECT-Abfrage kann zum Beispiel Teil einer PROCEDURE oder einer VIEW sein oder sogar in einer Skriptdatei stehen. Mithilfe dieses Berichts sollten Sie die Elemente nuanciert betrachten und ihren allgemeinen Transformationsstatus überprüfen können.

Functions Usage Report

The Functions Usage report summarizes the invocations of built-in and user-defined functions found during the conversion process, grouped by their migration status. This report allows the user to get details about function usages, whether they were transformed to Snowflake with no problem, or whether they require an additional post-conversion action.
