Hello Subramanyam,

We are eager to hear about your experience and success stories in migrating from Sybase ASA to ASE in 2018. We also understand that it has been quite some time since this exercise was completed. It would be great help if you could recall your experience and share your insights. Our main goal is to migrate from Sybase ASA to SQL Server 2019/2022. Please share your thoughts and insights based on your First-hand experience.

We also understand that it has been quite some time back this exercise was

There is no single tool.

You migrate data using bullk load copy out from SQLANywhere and copy into ASE.

For logic you can use tools like Sybase Central, DBArtisan, AQUA studio, etc. (google search for more) and convert Anywhere SQL to T-SQL.

(i.e. reverse engineer from SQLAnywhere and try on ASE)

SQL between the two is 85 to 90% compatible. But you have to test each proc/trigger etc by compiling it on ASE.

You can also use SAP/Sybase's PowerDesigner for reverse/forward code generation.
