Migrating a multi-level secured database

Abstract:

In an approach for migrating database content with row-level security from a source database with row-level security to a target database without row-level security, a computer determines a type of the source database to be migrated, and upon determining that a source table of the source database is maintained using multi-level security attributes, creating a data structure for a source table of the source database for storing meta-data comprising the multi-level security attributes, determining all dimensions of the multi-level security attributes, adding columns to a target table of the target database relating to the source table, the added columns representing the multi-level security attributes of the source table.
