Oracle DB to MySQL migration
MySQL and Oracle Database are complementary databases and are well-equipped for different scenarios. Vast Edge uses SQL Developer which is a fully compatible platform with both of the technologies and provides tools and utilities for hassle-free migration. Vast Edge configures top-notch benefits into enterprises architecture including:

* Reduce Costs
* Hardware and Software Consolidation
* Improve Reliability, Scalability, and Performance
* Migrations Repository for metadata storage

To configure the third-party database connection, you first need to download the JDBC driver. Other important steps are

1. Capturing Source Database
This step is used to capture a snapshot of the current state of your database and provides a "point in time" view of your database. Afterwards, the Migration wizard works on the meta-data stored in a repository for capturing live databases.
2. Convert Captured Model to Oracle
In this step, the captured model of the database is mapped to an Oracle-specific model. It contains data types, naming schemes etc. defined by your database vendor. Once the migration has completed, you can return the Captured Database Objects node and rerun the wizard from this point.
3. Translate Third Party SQL Objects to Oracle
Here, the T-SQL objects including constraints, functions, procedures, triggers, and views are translated to Oracle SQL objects. Afterward, you can return the Converted Database Objects node to translate objects again.
4. Generating Scripts to Create Target Database
In this step, the SQL scripts for the creation of the new Oracle Database schema(s) are generated and scripts are run.
5. Move Data from Third Party Database to Oracle
This is the last step of the Migration Wizard. Here, the data is copied from the third-party database to the new tables in the Oracle database. The running of script and coping occurred using the same connection.

Oracle APEX to MySQL DB Integration (Using DB link)
For integrating APEX to MySQL DB, you need to download MySQL ODBC driver.
It works like a charm as long as there is no network bottleneck. Here is a stepwise description of how to add APEX to MySQL DB:

Step:1
Add a new file:
\hs\admin\initMYSQL_DB.ora

Step:2
Update your Listener.ora
...
(SID_DESC=
(SID_NAME=MYSQL_DB)
(ORACLE_HOME=F:\oracle\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server)
(PROGRAM=hsodbc)
)...

Step:3
Update your TNSNAMES.ora and restart your Listener:
...
MYSQL_DB =
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=192.168.0.1)(PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=MYSQL_dB))
(HS=OK)
)...
Step:4
Create a database link inside your database:
create database link MYSQL_DB
connect to "test_db" identified by "test_db"
using 'MYSQL_DB';
)...

Step 5 : SQL> select * from test_table@MYSQL_DB;
