Hi,
Ora2Pg supports database migration from Oracle, MySQL, SQL Server and coming soon Informix using the corresponding DBI Perl drivers. Ingres is not supported yet and unfortunately this is not just a question of changing the Perl DBD module. There is lot of adaptation to write, if your company need it you can sponsor this development.
Regards,
Hi Gilles Darold, thank you for your reply and yes, I can imagine that it needs a lot of customizing for each database type. Regards
I successfully migrated Oracle databases to PostgreSQL by using ora2pg, a great tool! I also have Ingres databases to migrate and I wonder if it's possible to use DBD::Ingres for this. How is the metadata (table, field etc. information) read out from the source database? If this is done by using higher level functions (not RDBMS/Oracle specific), it should possible to use ora2pg for different RDBMS types, isn't it? If someone ever tried this, a short feedback would be great!
