I have an Oracle view containing very large amount of data in it and I want to migrate this data in a table in Greenplum database. Is there any way I can write any query in Postgresql to fetch that Oracle view's data?
If not possible by query in Postgresql, kindly suggest me some way to access Oracle view from Linux server, so that I can create data file from that Oracle view to my Linux server and load that file via gpfdist to a Greenplum table.
NOTE: an Oracle view is from third party, I only have an access to view that data (I have all the connection info) I can access that view via SQL Developer
NOTE: Exporting data from SQL Developer to my local machine is not feasible here as the data is very large
Thanks,
Sunny
The last time I used Greenplum (3 years ago) I don't think there were any untrusted languages like plperlu, so fetching directly from Oracle from within Greenplum might not be possible. If the data has a primary key, are you able to fetch in batches, compress it, then ship it to Greenplum?
Do you have a Greenplum support contract? If so, you could also try them if you haven't already: https://sso.emc.com/sso/login.htm
I recall that gpfdist can be configured to fetch from remote servers with a bit of fiddling, so if you are able to copy out the Oracle data to disk, you could fetch it using gpfdist without any intermediary steps.

I have to pull some data from oracle and update the data in snowflake. And ofcourse the size of the data is 5gb.
Is there any procedure to connect to oracle database from snowflake? OR
Do I need to connect them using a programming language as python?
You'll need to unload the data from Oracle and load into Snowflake, as there are no "direct connect" options I've ever heard about.
I'd use SQL*Loader to unload, push the files to AWS S3 (or your cloud vendor's storage), and issue Snowflake COPY INTO TABLE commands, it should be fairly straightforward.
There is no equivalent to Oracle database links in Snowflake. You would need an external process to move the data from Oracle to S3. Then you can configure a Snowpipe task to load from S3 into Snowflake. See Loading Continuously Using Snowpipe for more information.
I would suggest to use python programming to extract and load data from oracle to snowflake. Since your oracle table is being updated daily write python program to generate merge statement dynamically to load your incremental data from oracle to snowflake.
Snowflake supports Java script based stored procedure so you can use stored procedure to generate merge statement dynamically by passing table name as parameter and you can call it via python.
Initial load from oracle to snowflake may take time as you have 5GB data from your source system.
I've been task with figuring out a way to get data from Oracle and store it in a SQLite database. The back story is we currently use SQLite for our local storage on a mobile application and we currently populate that data via a file download, because the data is a large amount it could take up to 5 minutes to populate the database. An easy solution for us would be to build the table on the server and download it via http. The data is currently stored in a Oracle database on the server. My question is is it possible to create a DBLink from Oracle to SQLite to insert the data into the SQLite database on the server? If this is not possible are there any other solutions that would achieve this?
Thanks
We have two divisions in our company, one uses E1 on Oracle 11g the other uses SAP on Oracle 11g.
We also have a SQL Server system we use to data warehouse information once a night from both system to run our report server against.
The question I have is for pooled tables in SAP, such as A016, how would I get that information out of SAP?
Currently we have SSIS's setup with a linked server to the two Oracle servers which pull the data we need I just don't have the knowledge of SAP to find the Pooled tables.
if I can't pull the pooled tables because they don't physically exist is there a tool I can use in SAP to find out what tables the pooled table is getting it's information from? This way I can rebuild that table in SQL using a open query and some fun Joins.
Thanks
You have to access those tables using the application server. They can't be accessed directly from the database.
You'll probably want to write an ABAP program to extract the data you need go from there.
I have a PostgreSql database and I need to connect it to read data from oracle view and store that data in custom table
The PostgreSql database will connect to oracle everyday automatically to read the latest updates from oracle view
How to create it?
It sounds like you probably want a SQL/MED foreign data wrapper. Check out oracle_fdw. You could also use the generic odbc_fdw or jdbc_fdw wrappers via Oracle's ODBC or JDBC drivers.
Another option is DBI-Link.
Combine these with a cron job if you want to copy to a local view.
I have a Oracle server which is very highly loaded. I want to Select big table with several millions rows of data and download the data using SQL Developer. How I can do this with little performance impact of the production database?
use oracle's export tool for most efficient dump of data from a table.
example
exp user/password tables=mytable query="optional where clause here"
Note you have to have oracle client installed to use it.
