Migrating data from oracle to sql server

I have two databases(Oracle and Sql Server) in my company.
I want to migrate some data on daily basis from Oracle to Sql Server.
what are the best methodologies used to perform this task?
Can we schedule this task on daily basis?
please help me guys

Salma,
First and foremost, you need to understand that there are architectural difference between Oracle and SQL Server (with the major one being the difference between Oracle's PL/SQL and Microsoft's Transact-SQL) thus, it will not be an easy task to migrate data from Oracle Database to SQL Server. As far as the use of tools is concerned, you can utilize the following tools (third party tools not recommended) to achieve this:
Microsoft SQL Server Migration Assistant (Oracle to SQL)
http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2005/en/us/migration-oracle.aspx
Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench (SQL to Oracle)
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration//workbench/index_sqldev_omwb.html
But before proceeding with anything, I would recommend you to read through the following post as it lists down the primary compatibility resources and migration guidelines:
Migrating from Oracle to SQL Server

Hope this helps.

Pulling data from oracle into sql server 2005

hi,
these days i am working on sql server 2005 on windows server 2008 64 bit.
and oracle 10g on 32 bit unix.
my problem is that when i am pulling data from oracle into sql server it shows me about *500-700 entries less*.
why this is happening? is it because 32 bit to 64bit? or is it because of different os?

Akki,
are you using snapshot or replication from MSSQL? I am doing the same thing, hope to share your experience.
I am using import/export from MGT studio and pull some data from Oracle database, I am working on how to update the changes on these tables pulled from Oracle.
Thanks,

Inserting Data from Oracle to SQL Server on the Real Time Basis.

Hi Everyone,
I need to insert data from Oracle to SQL Server on the Real Time basis, we have to fetch data from oracle approx 20 tables, and each table has more than 30 Fields. I need to fetch data in every 15 mins.
I have created a job using SQL SERVER Agent by writing insert queries for all the tables with conditions that no rows will be inserted which is already in SQL. note that this job is taking only 1 min to execute.
But in this way our SQL Server getting hanged and it giving problems to other application running in the SQL SERVER.
So i m requesting all of you that what is the best way to insert huge amount of data on the real time basis.
Thanx in Advance.

1) Create Linked server
2) insert data using openquery and set job in sql agent
3) run job after 15 minutes

Insert data from oracle to sql server

we have running R12.1.1 .
our company wants to deploy some CRM Application with sql server database. Continuously we have to insert data ( some fields from some tables of Order Management module ) from ORACLE -----------> SQL Server
My Questions are :
1. What are possible methods to insert data from ORACLE -----------------> SQL Server ?
2. What are pros and cons of each method ?
3. What is performance over load of each method ?
PLease share your valuable knowledge / ideas / suggestions
thanks

What is a maximal latency for data changed in Oracle come into MS SQL?
this data will be updated in CRM after 24 hours.Does it mean that data replicated from Oracle will be updated in MS SQL and should be replicated back?
i want to know more details about these APIs etc and middle layer.what API? In MS SQL you can use Linked server and write SQLs that select from Oracle tables via that linked server and insert/update/delete into MS SQL. You can organize these SQLs into T-SQL procedures and run them in jobs.
Also you can use MS SQL replication, snapshot or transactional, which is ugly because it places triggers on Oracle tables. I doubt that this will be approved by app vendor.
Also you can use Oracle Streams via Transparent Gateway for MS SQL, which will be quite heavy solution.
Also, if real-time replication is needed, you can use "middle layer" Oracle Golden Gate, which may be quite pricy for 30 tables.
Also, if real-time replication is needed, you can use 3-rd party middle layer like DataCurrents or others.

Inserting data from Oracle to SQL Server 2008

Hi All,
I am using oracle 9.2.0.7 and SQL server 2008 in windows server 2003 operating system.
My requirment is like below.
1) I would liek to insert data from the Oracle database to SQL Server.
For the above requirement we have created the ODBC, then configure the listener file, tns file, and created the db link. This part is working fine as I am able to select the data from the SQL Server.
But when I am inserting the record from the oracle database to the SQL Server I am getting the error, (ORA-00904) Here oracle can not identified the column name.
My insert statement is like below.
insert into test@SQLTEST (name, fullname)
values ('Oracle', 'Oracle server data');
Test is the SQL server table name and sqltest is the db link name.
If I am select the data
select * from test@SQLTEST from Oralce I am getting the data properly.
Thanks,
SUN

Still I am getting the same error;

Migrating Data from MySQL to SQL Server 2012

Hi all,
I'm Migrating a database from MySQL to SQL Server 2012, using SSMA for MySQL v5.2.1258. I've got the schema migrated over and have resolved any migration issues (stored procedures / views), but when it comes to migrating over the data I'm just hitting
a wall.
None of the data is migrating and when the migration report is displayed every table has a red x against it's Status. The Output box has the following:
Data migration operation has finished.
0 table(s) successfully migrated.
0 table(s) partially migrated.
64 table(s) failed to migrate.
I've seen on the forum that someone else was having the same problem
(http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqlservermigration/thread/b835f4b3-3d93-42a4-9b6b-d21d3dfd8dab/)
I've set the project settings mode to default, still getting the same error and tried using both Client Side Data Migration and Server Side migration, with both giving the same result. I've tried going through the step-by-step blog as well.
I am doing something really stupid? There are 64 tables, so don't really want to try doing exports from each table and importing it into the new database.
Hope someone can help.
Cheers
Alex

Hello,
I don’t have suggestions for you, but you can try contacting the SQL Server Migration Assistant (SSMA) Team via e-mail ([email protected])
to see if they can provide a solution on this scenario.
Hope this helps.

Migrating data from Oracle 9i to SQL Server 2005

I am new to both. I need to first migrate data from oracle to sql server. After this I need to create a daily nightly batch process to insert new records from oracle to sql server into that table.
As my knowledge in SQL server is zero. Can somebody help me how I can accomplish this.
Somebody told me that I can use sql server import/export to do initial data dump into sql server and after that I can create a link in in oracle to do new iserts for new records. does any one have some example on this. I will really apprecite this if someone can give me step by step example. Thanks

I have been to SQL Server training, but my SQL server databases are off the shelf system, so I don't have to muck with them. Anyway, Sql Server is just MS Access on steroids, so some of the same concepts apply. You need to create an external table links to oracle. The following tidbits I found by googling might help you.

Data MIgration from Oracle to SQL Server 2005

HI Gurus,
Kindly please advice me how to migrate Data from oracle to MS SQL Server or Vice Versa.
I came to know about 2 methods:
1) Using SQL Developer
2) USing ODBC.
KIndly let me know which method is better. I am in confusion about both option
Kindly advice over the same
Thanks

Usually such questions asked and answered on forums of a target system. In this case on MS SQL forums.
But I will answer.
You should create a LINKED SERVER in MS SQL that connects to Oracle.
Then issue couple of SELECT * INTO <TARGET_TABLE> FROM <ORACLE LINKED SERVER>..<SRC SCHEMA>.<SRC TABLE>.
Install Oracle Client and OLE DB driver on SQL Server machine.
Also, Oracle is case sensitive by default. MS SQL is case insensitive by default. If there are primary/unique keys that have mixed case values in Oracle, then in MS SQL you need to set case sensitive collation for them.
PS. If you need not only migrate data one time, but also to have a real time replication during an application transition period, you can take a look on heterogeneous replication solutions like Golden Gates or DataCurrents.

Migration of Database from Oracle to SQL Server in Business Objects XI 3.1

Hi,
Currently, We are working on Business Objects XI 3.1 and Database is Oracle 11g. And now we have the requirement to migrate from Oracle 11g to SQL Server 2008 R2.
I would like to know what are the key points to be considered in business objects XI 3.1 when the database is migrated from oracle to SQL server.
If anyone can share the Impact analysis document for Business Objects, it would be great.
Thanks,
Lavanyaa TP

If you use business objects tools for such migration , the impact should be minimal.
CMSDBCopy mechanism from CCM should work fine for this purpose.

Error while converting schema from oracle to SQL server

Hello,
I am getting following error while converting schema from oracle to SQL server using SSMA.
I get Errors 1-3 while migrating procedures and error 4 while migrating a table.
1- O2SS0050: Conversion of identifier 'SYSDATE' is not supported.
2- O2SS0050: Conversion of identifier 'to_date(VARCHAR2, CHAR)' is not supported.
3- O2SS0050: Conversion of identifier 'regexp_replace(VARCHAR2, CHAR)' is not supported.
4- O2SS0486: <Primary key name> constraint is disabled in Oracle and cannot be converted because SQL Server does not support disabling of primary or unique constraint.
Please suggest.
Thanks.

The exact statement in oracle side which causing this error (O2SS0050:
Conversion of identifier 'to_date(VARCHAR2, CHAR)' is not supported.) is below:
dStartDate:= to_date(sStartDate,'MON-YYYY');
Statement causing error O2SS0050:
Conversion of identifier 'regexp_replace(VARCHAR2, CHAR)' is not supported is below.
nCount2:= length(regexp_replace(sDataRow,'[^,]'));
So there is no statement which is using to_date(VARCHAR2,
CHAR) and regexp_replace(VARCHAR2, CHAR) in as such. 'MON-YYYY' and '[^,]'
are CHAR values hence SSMA is unable to convert it from varchar2 to char.
Regarding SYSDATE issue, you mean to put below code in target(SQL) side in SSMA ?
dDate date := sysdate;
Thanks.

Hi ,
Thanks for your reply.
Contents of my initMYSQLSERVERDSN.ora file is
# This is a sample agent init file that contains the HS parameters that are
# needed for an ODBC Agent.
# HS init parameters
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = MYSQLSERVERDSN
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = 0
HS_FDS_TRACE_FILE_NAME = hsmsql.trc
# Environment variables required for the non-Oracle system
#set <envvar>=<value>
set ODBCINI=c:\WINDOWS\ODBC.INI
SALIHKM.DOMAIN.COM is my system in which Oracle Test DB is Installed.
SQL Server is in another location.
In Tnsnames i specified ip address.
One more doubt.
I am using 10g Release 2 demo version.
whether it will support Hetrogeneous Services?
How to know whether a database supports HS or not?
Thanks & Regards

Creating Database Link from Oracle to SQL Server

I am trying to create a database link from Oracle to SQL Server, and the documentation is about as clear as mud to me. Can anyone send me clear instructions on exactly what I need to do? What needs to be in tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files? Is there anything other than those two files that needs to be set up? Do I set up an ODBC connection? Anything else? I want to execute queries against a SQL Server database and load data into Oracle database.
Thanks so much,
Susan

These are the instructions from an old document I created. The steps are same for SQL Server and Sybase. Hope it helps.
The 9i Transparent Gateway Software is in Oracle Software CD -> oracle9i database -> Custom -> Oracle Transparent Gateways
The gateway can be installed on the same machine as the Oracle database or
on the Sybase server or on a third machine as a stand-alone.
We have installed the gateway software in one of oracle database
servers in a separate oracle home.
These are the steps involved in configuring a gateway to a Sybase database
1.     Install Sybase client and Gateway software on the Gateway Server
2.     Configure <initsidfile> in the Gateway Server's <gatewayhome>
     /u00/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/tg4sybs/admin/init<gatewaysid>.ora
Sybase server and database information is required for this step.
eg: HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO=USTRUD01.uwd
3.     Add an entry in listener.ora in <listnenerhome>
     (/u00/app/oracle/product/9.0.1/network/admin/listener.ora) for the <gatewaysid>
4.     Edit the tnsnames file (/u00/app/oracle/product/9.0.1/network/admin/tnsnames.ora)
to add an entry <tnsalias> for the <gatewaysid>
5.     Create a database link to the Sybase database in the oracle database.
The steps for creating the database link are
a. create a login oracle_tgw in the sybase server
b. add the user to the sybase database with the necessary privilege on the tables
c. create the database link in the required oracle database using the command
     "create public database link <dblinkname> connect to oracle_tgw identified by password using 'tnsalias'; "
6.     Restart the gateway listener.

DB Link from Oracle to SQL Server error

Dear buddies,
I need to perfome some select on the tables which reside in SQL Server 2005 from Oracle 10g.
I followed the steps given in :
http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_heterogeneous_database_connections_sql_server.htm
I could perform a TNS ping which is successful but only when I perform a select I receive this error.
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28545: error diagnosed by Net8 when connecting to an agent
Unable to retrieve text of NETWORK/NCR message 65535
ORA-02063: preceding 2 lines from SQLS
I have checked that my dsn name is in small caps all the way wherever it is used(Since its suggested in many sites).
Please guide me.
I am really looking ahead for a solution.
