Extract and migrate data from nested tables with user-defined nested types from Oracle to PostgreSQL

In Oracle, UDTs can have member functions written in PL/SQL that are integrated directly into the UDT. In contrast, PostgreSQL currently doesn’t allow member functions within UDTs. In this post, we dive deep into these differences and provide guidance for a smooth migration, helping ensure that the integrity of your data models is maintained throughout the process. We will also walk you through the details of converting complex member type functions in the multi-nested UDT from Oracle to PostgreSQL.
