4.0 out of 5 stars Combining Sql Server and Oracle together, March 7, 2001
This review is from: Oracle8i and Microsoft SQL Server Integration (With CD-ROM) (Paperback)
This book examines the most recent verions of Oracle 8i and sql server and compares one with the other in a non-biased way. Features of both are examined and explained. Microsoft has engineered Sql server with a particular strategy in mind argues the author. This strategy is integration with all the other Microsoft products. Oracle in contrast has the strategy of integrating everything into its core database product. The most useful information in this book are the descriptions of the integration tools to move database schema info and data between the two environments. Sql server has something called DTS, while Oracle has the Oracle migration workbench. However, there are several other tools some of which use OLE DB and ODBC which all support movement of data and sometimes schema information. The author doesn't try to judge which database is better or more open. The information about connectivity between these databases is presented objectively. Anybody that operates in an environment of sql server and Oracle will benefit from this face off between the latest versions of these databases.
