Google adds Gemini code conversion for PostgreSQL migrations

Google has enhanced its Database Migration Service with AI-assisted code conversion for PostgreSQL migrations from commercial databases. This feature addresses the challenge of converting stored procedures, triggers, and custom functions written in proprietary languages. The new workflow allows users to view original source code alongside suggested PostgreSQL PL/pgSQL output, enabling inline explanations, code editing, and validation before deployment. The service analyzes schema context across the migration project, considering table relationships and data types. It combines rule-based conversion with AI-generated suggestions and includes PostgreSQL syntax validation. The conversion process remains within the customer's Google Cloud project, adhering to security protocols. This feature aims to reduce the time for code conversion from months to days, allowing database specialists to focus on verification and application modifications. Once validated, the converted code can be applied to staging systems for testing before live migration.

Voidwood, a Fantasy Co-Op Survival Horror Game, Announced for PC

Santa Barbara Games has announced its first project, Voidwood, developed by a team from studios like Bethesda, Riot, and EA. The game combines fantasy and horror with an art style similar to Studio Ghibli. Players can team up with up to three friends to explore a cursed forest, focusing on strategy and stealth. During the day, players gather supplies and craft tools, while at night, they must evade The Beast. Communication is crucial, as players can use proximity chat to whisper, but shouting can attract danger. Players can regroup at a camp for safety, but The Beast can still attack if it detects them. Each session lasts 20 to 30 minutes, and the game features meta progression for character development. Voidwood is currently in development for PC and is expected to release in 2027.
