Azure has no equivalent of Babelfish for Aurora PostgreSQL. On Azure, SQL Server apps usually move to Azure SQL itself, which avoids an engine change.
- Babelfish accepts SQL Server's TDS protocol and common T-SQL on an Aurora PostgreSQL cluster, so the same data is reachable from both SQL Server and PostgreSQL clients. Compatibility isn't complete, so assess your T-SQL first.
