Hi, We have a customer who is using an Oracle database under Digital Unix for data entry, and a SQL Server database for analysis. They manually (via flat files) transfer the Oracle data to the SQL Server database. Is this transfer process something that DBI could automate? Thanks for any ideas, Glenn

Hi Glenn, It depends what you mean by automate. You could use the Gateway to PC Data and the Gateway to Oracle and do a insert into (select from ...) kind of deal. If this needs to be a UNIX solution then you can't use Data Distributor, which could automate the copy process (you schedule it, tell it what to do, and it runs). If you want to skip the flat file creation then the gateways will help. Hope this helps, Dan | |||||

Hi Dan, I think the idea is to have the Unix/Oracle data changes reflected in the NT/SQL Server database, either on a nightly basis, or perhaps as soon as the changes are made, using a direct Oracle to SQL Server transfer. I have yet to talk to the customer directly, and will let you know as soon as I understand the exact requirements. Thanks Glenn |
