Oracle vs postgreSQL data types
In this table is very useful at the time of database migration here i differentiated between oracle data type and postgreSQL data types
Data Types
Data type mapping:
Oracle | PostgreSQL | |||
1 | BFILE | Pointer to binary file, ⇐ 4G | VARCHAR(255) | |
2 | BINARY_FLOAT | 32-bit floating-point number | REAL | |
3 | BINARY_DOUBLE | 64-bit floating-point number | DOUBLE PRECISION | |
4 | BLOB | Binary large object, ⇐ 4G | BYTEA | |
5 | CHAR(n), CHARACTER(n) | Fixed-length string, 1 ⇐ n ⇐ 2000 | CHAR(n), CHARACTER(n) | |
6 | CLOB | Character large object, ⇐ 4G | TEXT | |
7 | DATE | Date and time | TIMESTAMP(0) | |
8 | DECIMAL(p,s), DEC(p,s) | Fixed-point number | DECIMAL(p,s), DEC(p,s) | |
9 | DOUBLE PRECISION | Floating-point number | DOUBLE PRECISION | |
10 | FLOAT(p) | Floating-point number | DOUBLE PRECISION | |
11 | INTEGER, INT | 38 digits integer | DECIMAL(38) | |
12 | INTERVAL YEAR(p) TO MONTH | Date interval | INTERVAL YEAR TO MONTH | |
13 | INTERVAL DAY(p) TO SECOND(s) | Day and time interval | INTERVAL DAY TO SECOND(s) | |
14 | LONG | Character data, ⇐ 2G | TEXT | |
15 | LONG RAW | Binary data, ⇐ 2G | BYTEA | |
16 | NCHAR(n) | Fixed-length UTF-8 string, 1 ⇐ n ⇐ 2000 | CHAR(n) | |
17 | NCHAR VARYING(n) | Varying-length UTF-8 string, 1 ⇐ n ⇐ 4000 | VARCHAR(n) | |
18 | NCLOB | Variable-length Unicode string, ⇐ 4G | TEXT | |
19 | NUMBER(p,0), NUMBER(p) | 8-bit integer, 1 <= p < 3 | SMALLINT | |
16-bit integer, 3 <= p < 5 | SMALLINT | |||
32-bit integer, 5 <= p < 9 | INT | |||
64-bit integer, 9 <= p < 19 | BIGINT | |||
Fixed-point number, 19 <= p <= 38 | DECIMAL(p) | |||
20 | NUMBER(p,s) | Fixed-point number, s > 0 | DECIMAL(p,s) | |
21 | NUMBER, NUMBER(*) | Floating-point number | DOUBLE PRECISION | |
22 | NUMERIC(p,s) | Fixed-point number | NUMERIC(p,s) | |
23 | NVARCHAR2(n) | Varying-length UTF-8 string, 1 ⇐ n ⇐ 4000 | VARCHAR(n) | |
24 | RAW(n) | Variable-length binary string, 1 ⇐ n ⇐ 2000 | BYTEA | |
25 | REAL | Floating-point number | DOUBLE PRECISION | |
26 | ROWID | Physical row address | CHAR(10) | |
27 | SMALLINT | 38 digits integer | DECIMAL(38) | |
28 | TIMESTAMP(p) | Date and time with fraction | TIMESTAMP(p) | |
29 | TIMESTAMP(p) WITH TIME ZONE | Date and time with fraction and time zone | TIMESTAMP(p) WITH TIME ZONE | |
30 | UROWID(n) | Logical row addresses, 1 ⇐ n ⇐ 4000 | VARCHAR(n) | |
31 | VARCHAR(n) | Variable-length string, 1 ⇐ n ⇐ 4000 | VARCHAR(n) | |
32 | VARCHAR2(n) | Variable-length string, 1 ⇐ n ⇐ 4000 | VARCHAR(n) | |
