    I'm not sure what context you're asking the question, but here's my swipe at an answer.

    A migration is moving a database, objects or data between two different servers. An upgrade is when you are changing the version of the server.

  • No need to apologize, and we want you to ask questions, but really more pointed questions. The suggestion to Google is for you to try to learn something about it on your own and then ask a question that is more detailed and specific.

    I agree with Steve. No need to apologize for asking on the place where you think you'll get the best answer.

    I'll also add to Grant's correct (IMHO) answer...

    Not all upgrades require a migration (movement of data and/or code). As Grant pointed out, you may be just be upgrading (no physical movement of data or code) SQL Server or the Operating System.

    Not all migrations are for upgrades of SQL Server or the OS. They may be done just because a bigger machine or bigger disk drives are needed. I guess you could call that an "upgrade" because you're moving to better hardware, but I generally don't call those types of things "upgrades". Migrations may also be done without any kind of upgrade at all. It may be just because someone wants the data and related "system" to live on a different box or maybe even at a different location. I had to do that once when our company was bought by another... they wanted to move the data and the code that used it to their central DP center. Nothing was upgraded... well, except that they had better air conditioning and a more physically secure server room than we did. 😛

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
