This is a software tool that can help migration of data from DB2 databases to Oracle databases.
DB2ToOracle is a data conversion tool that helps DBA and database programmers to convert DB2 data to Oracle database. Quite often such data transfers are daily routines for the IT department and it will help if the migration can be done automatically and at given times so that no baby-sitting becomes necessary. This tool has those features. Transfers could be scheduled. You could specify the complete transfers via the command line interface. The GUI is also easy to use. You can define source and destination tables and the fields. Multiple such tables could be transferred at any time. The data to be transferred could be harvested through query too. If there is a resource crunch in the IT department, this tool can help you out with routine transfers in a day.
The tool allows saving and loading of session parameters so that tasks that are repeated can be done easily by re-using the parameters. This has a simple interface and is quite intuitive. Most users would be able to get productive very quickly. The controls are also well laid out. Setting up a session is through an interface wizard. Preview is available and lets you see data as soon as they are transferred. The progress bar ensures that if there is a problem, you get to know immediately. This is a good product and has many useful features. If you have a need, here is a good candidate for trying out.
