OraDump-to-MSSQL is a program to migrate data from Oracle dump files to Microsoft SQL database. The program does direct reading from the dump, so Oracle installation is not required. Command line support allows to script, automate and schedule the conversion process.

Features All versions of Oracle EXP and EXPDP (datapump) formats are supported Parallel export Oracle dump files are supported Encrypted dump files are supported All versions of SQL Server are supported including Azure SQL Oracle installation IS NOT required Indexes and foreign keys are converted Option to customize types mapping, select certain columns to convert Option to convert individual tables Option to export data into T-SQL script file Option to merge Oracle data into an existing MS SQL database Option to synchronize MS SQL database with Oracle data  Conversion settings are stored into profile to reuse in next runs Command line version of the tool allows to script and automate the conversion Quick Launch Easy-to-use wizard-style interface Full install/uninstall support The product can be customized according to customer requirements Unlimited 24/7 support service 1-year subscription for updates Limitations Does not support compressed dump files Does not convert views, stored procedures and triggers Does not convert columns having user-defined types Demo version converts only 50 records per table

Requirements

• Supported OS: Windows XP(SP2 or SP3)/Vista/7/8/10, Server 2003/2008/2012/2016, Linux with WINE
• MS SQL environment (server or client components of MS SQL must be installed on the same machine where you run OraDump-to-MSSQL from)
• Necessary privileges to write into the destination database

Export into T-SQL script file

It is not always possible to have direct access to Microsoft SQL server. For this cases OraDump-to-MSSQL converter allows users to do indirect conversion and get more control over the process. Following this way, the program exports Oracle dump data into a local T-SQL script file instead of moving it to MS SQL server directly. This file contains SQL statements to create all tables and to fill them with the data. Click here to learn how to import T-SQL script file into MS SQL server.

Quick Launch

Once you stored conversion settings into profile you can run the program in Quick Launch mode. Just launch Windows Explorer and double-click on the profile description file (.od2m) with left mouse button. This will cause OraDump-to-MSSQL launch conversion loading the necessary settings from the specified profile. Then you will be taken right to the screen with progress of conversion without entering all conversion settings.

Synchronization

OraDump-to-MSSQL implements synchronization as combination of insert Oracle records that are missing in MS SQL table and update existing MS SQL records with Oracle data. For synchronization purpose source and destination tables must have identical structures and primary key or unique index defined.

How to process parallel export Oracle dump files

To speed up exporting data into dump Oracle allows export operation to be executed by multiple threads that are working at the same time. Each thread generates output in its own file, so the result of the parallel export job is a set of files. OraDump-to-MSSQL can extract data from the first file of that set only. To read the entire data it is necessary to merge all files of parallel export into the single one with ormerge.exe tool that can be found in the installation folder. It is a console utility that accepts the following arguments:

ordmerge.exe <dumpfile#1> <dumpfile#2> ... <dumpfile#N> <resulting file>

Then OraDump-to-MSSQL should be run against the resulting file.

Customize table structure

Manual table structure customization can be accessed by double click on the corresponding table name in "Selected tables" list of "Step 4 of 5" wizard page.

This will cause the following dialog box to appear:

To customize type mapping select the appropriate item in the listview on the left and specify new name, type and default value for the field using "Field info" group of controls. Please note that listview on the left contains column attributes of the original types mapping, new custom types and attributes will be displayed in "Field info" controls when the corresponding item is highlighted in the listview.
