Hello All,

We have a requirement to migrate from Oracle(Multiple versions) - 11gR1,11gR2,12c to PostgreSQL 10 to private cloud of customer  in context to that -


1.       Please let me know the best practices for migrations- any documents ,links etc.

2.       Open source tools for migration.

3.       OS and kernel parameters as per PostgreSQL standards for DB instances.

4.       Design and planning for PostgreSQL configurations.

5.       If Ora2pg tool is enough for migration?


Thanks
Soumik

Hi,
It is very depends on the structure of your database. Before starting try
to know everything  about your database - schemas, object types and so on..
Ora2pg is a great tool but sometimes isnt enough for all migrations. Check
out oracle_fdw("dblink" to oracle database) and orafce (oracle internal
functions for postgresql).

Thanks Mariel.

Also if any help on moving the delta part post migration process , any tools which is intelligent enough to identify the delta part.

There will be a period of 3 days between Migration and Cutover(Delta)

Thanks
Soumik

Well like I said it depends on your oracle`s database structure(the logical
structure - tables,tablespace and so on..) and on the migration tool that
you will use. If the database are small maybe consider using oracle_fdw to
the oracle`s tables for the deltas. I didnt search online but maybe there
is a tool that can manage logical replication between oracle and postgresql
and that might help you.

Setting it up is a bit of a fit, but it may be a robust way to provide the logical replication you need for your database migration.  Talend has both community (Apache licensed) and commercial licensing options.  Most other quality CDC products I’ve used are commercial/proprietary (IBM Infosphere and Oracle GoldenGate), good products but heavyweight and expensive,

Hi All,

Few questions - Related to my previous thread about Oracle to Postgre migrations.

1. In the customer cloud environment we don't have any other access in CLI(Command Line) apart from psql, is this sufficient for migration from Oracle to Postgre?
   **pgadmin4 will be there along with psql.

2. The source(Oracle) is external to cloud environment and not in the same namespace. Oracle servers are hosted in on premise DC machines/VM's.


3. The Postgre is provisioned automatically based on Postgre Docker image and It does not include "EDB migration toolkit" which is trail/free version.
   **If we change the Docker image and include migration toolkit as part of in Stack Builder ?

Any other points/suggestions which you think is important for the migrations?

Thanks
Soumik
