Migrate Oracle/dev 2000 to SQL Server 2000

We are in the process of doing a case study for moving some of our very small Oracle databases with Dev 2000 front ends to MS Sql Server 2000. I know the Migration Workbench is a tool for moving non-Oracle database sources like Informix and Sql Server to Oracle, but can we do the vice-versa i.e Oracle to Sql Server. I know there would be issues like different data types, PL/SQL vs T-SQL etc etc.
Anybody with views/suggestions on the subject?? - many thanks for the same

Gavin,
The migration workbech migrates customers from non-oracle systems to Oracle.
We also have Transparent Gateway for SQL Server which is used for to operate in a heterogenous environments. That is if you have an application that accesses data that resides in a combination of Oracle and non-oracle databases, then you can use the gateway to get a unified view of all the data.
If I may ask why are you thinking of migrating from Oracle to SQL Server and will you be also changing the front end i.e the dev 2000 application?

  • Differnce Between Oracle 9i And MS SQL Server 2000

    Hi,
    What are the difference between Oracle 9i And MS SQL Server 2000.

    But you have to remember one big thing - I've not seen yet one compare that was completely indifferent to any of the included DB's. So you can be sure that every doc that you get on MS website will say that SQL server is better, every doc on Oracle website will say that Oracle is better. Every doc on other websites will say that better DB either is:
    1) DB that has payed for the reserach paper
    2) DB that was mostly used by the researchers
    So of course you should be very cautious about each paper you get.

  • Migrating Japanese Characters from MS SQL Server 2000 to Oracle 9i usng Jsp

    Hi ,
    I have a situation where the Japanese characters are to be migrated from MS SQL Server 2000 to Oracle 91 and then render the same using JSP.
    I followed the below approach,
    1. Extract the Japanese data from MS SQL Server and generate an XML
    2. Parse the XML and store it into Oracle 9i database which is of UTF-8 encoding.
    3. On retreiving and rendering using the Shift-JIS adds few junk characters additionally.
    When I try to copy paste the Japanese contents from XML to a text file, it is working fine.
    Could some one help me in resolving this issue?
    It is very urgent, and any help would be greatly appreciated.

    There is documentation in the reference guide sent with the workbench, there is this discussion forum, the support web page (which includes tech notes and FAQ's), and the company specific procedural language documentation.
    There is also an older document for use with the old sybase toolkits which may be obscelete, and there are some internal documents which were for internal consumption.

    MSs Jdbc Driver still requires Jdbc-Odbc bridge.
    Just go thru the URL,

    Hope this helps.
    SudhaThanks for the URL, but I think this page does not refer to the beta-JDBC driver which MS has made available recently. For instance it says that Microsoft's driver is a type 2 driver, while in reality it is type 4.

  • Oracle 10g connectivity with sql server 2000 through oracle transpa gateway

    dear gurus.
    i am to connecto oracle 10g with sql server 2000 through oracle transparent gateway.
    i have installed transparent gateway and proper configured. also link is created.
    but when i execute query "select * from city@inventory" , so an error displayed.
    ORA-12500: TNS:listener failed to start a dedicated server process.
    kindly suggest me what could be the cause.
    regards,

    if the listener fails to spawn a dedicated server process it is commonly indicating an issue with the listener. So posting the listener and also a listener trace including a description of the env where you installed the gateway into which directory would be helpfull. Please keep also in mind if you have for example a 10.2.0.3 database and you install into this directoty a 10.2.0.1 gateway you have to reapply the patchset again do get consistent file version.
    So please describe more detailed your env.

  • Oracle XE connection to SQL Server 2000

    Hello everybody,
    I need to make a connection to a table in SQL Server 2000. I am using Oracle XE with Apex 3.0.1.
    SQL and XE are on the same server(windows server 2003).
    I need to make an application that uses some data of the SQL Server and for the rest it uses data from Oracle XE.
    How can I make this connection to SQL Server from Oracle XE? Some suggestion where I should start, would be great.
    It would be great if the Apex developers would not notice that the data is retrieved from SQL Server, is this possible?
    For 10g there is a gateway for this I believe, but not for XE.
    Thank you for your time!

  • Migrate  oracle database to Microsoft sql server 2005

    Hi All,
    I have to migrate production oracle database to Microsoft sql server 2005. Below are the details:
    Oracle database version: 8.1.7.4
    Platform : Aix
    Kindly help me out

    Well, the traditional way would be to dump out all your data from Oracle tables as comma delimited flat files and import into SQL server. Plenty of examples online, like this is one by Mark Powell: http://www.jlcomp.demon.co.uk/faq/flatfile.html
    Or if you have the budget you could think about buying a data mapping tool like File-Aid
    As mentioned by another poster, you will still need to figure out how to replace all your triggers, stored procedures, etc on your new platform of course.

  • JDBC to access SQL server 2000 and Oracle.

    hi,
    I have the following requirement. I have an oracle database which contain sql data including BLOB and CLOB. Firstly, I should migrate the data to a SQL server 2000 database. That is, i should be able to have two databases, one on oracle and the other on sql server 2000. the two databases should contain the same data, which includes BLOB data. I guess, sql server 2000 does not have a BLOB data type. What is the equivalent data type i can use to save the Oracle's BLOB data in SQL server?? Should it be image type?
    After i migrate the data to the sql server 2000 database, i should be able to connect to the two databases, oracle and sql server 2000, using the same JDBC code to retrieve, insert, update and delete the data. What are the drivers that i should use. I guess, the MS JDBC driver does not support BLOB and CLOB. Is there a driver that can support BLOB for sql server 2000 and is also free???!
    Kindly help... Thanks.
    Arthi.

    Hi,
    I am new to jdbc... so, pls forgive my ignorance...
    I shall try to map a BLOB data column in oracle to an IMAGE data column in sql server 2000. I am using oracle jdbc driver and microsoft's jdbc driver for connecting to the databases.
    My question is, can i use setBlob() method in the preparedstatement in jdbc code for setting data to the sql server 2000 image column?
    rs.getBlob() and preparedstatement.setBlob()code works fine for oralce's BLOB column using oracle's jdbc driver.... Will the same jdbc code work for sql server 2000's image column using microsoft's jdbc driver??
    Kindly help.

  • Migration Complete - SQL Server 2000 - But I Have a Question - Please Help

    I just ran the Oracle Migration workbench and converted a SQL Server 2000 database to Oracle 8i. I did get a few errors and warnings, all from the stored procedures. Which I will correct manually. However, when I log into DBA Studio, I can see the new tablespace for my converted database under storage. But theres nothing under the schema. Do I have to create this in order to manipulate the database. I wanna be able to modify some of the tables and stored procedures, but all I see in DBA Studio is the tabelspace for the converted database.
    I hope someone can help me with this.
    Thanks

    If your migration was sucessfull, then the schema's would also have been created on the target Oracle environment. You can go back to the Workbench and check the oracle model, to determine what schema(s) would be created. You can also check the log, or run a report to determine any errors during the migration phase.

    The way you do this is by finding out on what port the instance of SQL

    server=<machine name/ip> of the server this instance is running on. and
    the
    port as the port that is shown by the server network utility as port=<port

  • Oracle 8i to MS SQL Server replication

    Im new to Oracle, but a MS SQL Server DBA. Im helping in the architecture of a data warehouse that pulls from some disparate sources, including Oracle 8i, into a SQL Server 2000 box. We could use batch processing to pull updated data from the Oracle database to populate our data warehouse, but we were hoping to get real-time transactional processing via some replication scenario. My terminology may be wrong from the Oracle perspective, but I think the transactional replication that SQL Server supports is called synchronous replication in Oracle. My question is, does anybody know how to do synchronous replication from an Oracle server to a SQL Server? Or perhaps which Oracle product supports it? Thanks!

    ===========================================================
    I'm working on the similar requirements, exactly my source DB is DB2, and the target DB is Oracle. I have two year experience with Oracle, but I know nothing about DB2. There a about 50 tables in source DB. Transactions on source DB is not too heavy(less than 10/Second), and the mainfram are all powerful.
    I've though about Oracle Gateway, but I'd rather save it as the backup solution. For one thing, neither co-workers nor I have experience with it. Second, I'm afraid the Gateway performance would not be satisfactory. Furthermore, words has it that we should pay for the Gateway. So My ideas to real-time replication of the two DB is as following:
    (1) use trigger in DB2 to reponse to immediate transactions in source DB;
    (2) use Embedded C/SQL to extract those transactions into flat files;
    (3) FTP files to the target server;
    (4) On target server, SHELL scripts read the files and call Pro*C to apply the transactions into Oracle DB.
    but, some problems really get me.
    A: in step(1) and (2), How to set EC to do its work in reponse to trigger? I know that one can call host script in Oracle trigger, but I have no idea about DB2 trigger. Maybe, I can create a real-time monitoring EC process to address it. what's your opinion?
    B: I should maintain all transaction metadata by myself. e.g. INSERT, UPDATE old/new data, DELETE info. It is originally covered by the database, and it isn't easy to handle it squarely.
    C: How to address some exception? like database rollback, the process recovery in case of any interruptions in the above steps.
    Could you share me some idea, Thank you!

  • How to Migrate my database from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle

    I want to transfer my database from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle, Can I do this without using Oracle Migration Workbench ??
    Please help me.
    Thanks in advance
    Vicky... :-)

    Do you have a good technical reason for not wanting to use the Migration Workbench?
    Given that it's free and does a hell of a lot of the work for you, why wouldn't you use it?
    Other than that, I would say you would be on your own...
    cheers,
