I'm new in "databaase administration"
the problem I am facing is that I want to have an exact copy of a table, from MySQL
database (website database) to oracle
database (a local one).
What I've done till now
Searched for two days.
I installed MySQL connector/odbc
on the 'oracle machine' and successfully connected to the remote MySQL database
Also I can execute queries from the oracle machine like:
select * from remote_table;
and it shows the expected results,
The problem here is:
Is there a way to sync these two databases (mySQL to oracle), or at least update the local one every midnight..
About the two machines
Both machines are running Windows OS
local one :
Running Windows XP
Oracle 8i
remote one :
Running Windows 8.1
MySql 5.6.17
Best Answer
well i created a small program using java packages :
mysql-connector-java-5.1.18-bin.jar
and aoracle jdbc driver :
classes12.zip (this version for oracle 8i)
with mysql connector i can run a "select" statements an read from mysql databse, and then i build an "insert" statement to instert them in the oracle database.
this was the best solution i found
