Hello ...

We have done a lot of migration work so far. Switching from DB2 to
PostgreSQL ist not that kind of a problem. PostgreSQL is very close to
the ANSI standard.

What you really need is expert knowledge about PostgreSQL
(administration, security, tuning, and so forth).

Some features and functions of DB2 can easily be modelled in PostgreSQL.
If there is something we can do for you, feel free to contact us.
