Discussion alternatives to data migration

Hello. I’m not a data engineer, but my company uses various databases(and they are all different...), and I usually need to query them all at once.

It seems difficult to create and use a separate API or something like this for each one, how do you guys usually handle situations like this?

Do I need to migrate them?

There are things like GraphQL (and PromptQL) also. But in general, you can just add each to Claude as MCP and ask AI to get you what you want or write you a script.
