Connect to Oracle DB as SQL DB - sql

I have a software which works with SQL DB as its local DB; we have ORACLE DB installed and we need to use it instead of SQL, what libraries or adaptors which I can use so the software will see the Oracle DB as SQL DB.

How to set up SSIS to extract data from Postgres Database

I have a database PostGres database in the AWS Cloud. I would like to use SSIS to extract tables and move them over to a local SQL Server.
Has anyone attempted to do this? Is it possible?
Ultimately I would like to move over tables from the PostGres to a SQL server, without having to purchase a tool.
As per the documentation, you would need to follow these steps to connect SSIS to a Postgres database:
get the PostgreSQL ODBC driver, either with Stack Builder or using ODBC
connect to PostgreSQL with the PostgreSQL ODBC driver (psqlODBC), using the proper connection string, typically Driver={PostgreSQL ODBC Driver(UNICODE)};Server=<server>;Port=<port>;Database=<database>;UID=<user id>;PWD=<password>
You can use the Postgres OLE DB Provider to connect to Postgres using OLE DB Source. The following link contains a step by step guide to import data from Postgres into SQL Server:

Azure SQL Data Migration Assistant (DMA) Error - Three or Four Part Names

I'm using the MS Data Migration Assistant tool to move a SQL Server 2016 DB to Azure. I'm getting the following error on 80+ stored procedures:
Queries or references using three- or four-part names not supported in Azure SQL Database. Three-part name format, [database_name].[schema_name].[object_name], is supported only when the database_name is the current database or the database_name is tempdb and the object_name starts with #.
All of these stored procedures are using the current database and referencing the current database name. For example, this instruction is causing the error:
DELETE FROM [STDR].[dbo].[report] WHERE [report_id] = #xid
and when I run the command:
SELECT DB_NAME();
I get:
STDR
Could this be an error in the DMA tool? It's preventing me from executing the migration. I'd rather not have to modify all of these procedures. Thanks.
1.Queries or references using three- or four-part names not supported in Azure SQL Database.
It's not the error in the DMA tool. Cross database queries using three or four part names is not supported in Azure SQL Server.
You can read more in the official documentation:Resolving Transact-SQL differences during migration to SQL Database。
2.Three-part name format, [database_name].[schema_name].[object_name], is supported only when the database_name is the current database or the database_name is tempdb and the object_name starts with #.
About this question, I have an idea and I think you can try it. You can specify target Azure Database instance which has the same database name and the same schema objects with your on-premises SQL Server. Otherwise, when your SQL Server 2016 DB is migrated to Azure, the current database is not [STDR] and cause the error.
Reference: Migrate on-premises SQL Server or SQL Server on Azure VMs to Azure SQL Database using the Data Migration Assistant.
Hope this helps.
It's just the four-part name or three-part name that is not compatible with Azure SQL Database. You can script all your programing objects and then change the three part name format to two-part name format (dbo.[NameOfTheObjet]) on the script using Find and Replace on a text editor like Notepad++, then run that script on your Azure SQL Database to migrate your programming objects.
After that you can use DMA only to migrate the schema and data of your tables.

How to export database from mysqlworkbench to sql server

Oracle SQL Developer syntax 'use database' like as MSSQL

How can I use in query SQL file from Oracle SQL Developer, syntax like as MSSQL "USE DATABSE GO" for direct connect to an Oracle database.
Thanks!
Oracle introduced the multitenant Database in version 12c. It's structured similar to a MSSQL instance. If you are in that version, you can switch between pluggable databases with the following:
ALTER SESSION SET container = pdb1;
If you are on 11g or previous or on a non-cbo 12c Database, I don't see the way to switch to another instance.

Generate an "INSERT INTO" script from SQL Server to Postgres

I need to generate a script with the data from one db in sql server to postgres. It seems the "Generate Script" in SQL Management doesn't do ANSI format like INSERT INTO that I need.
How can I do it?
I suggest.
Fire up an instance of Postgres on an accessible device.
Set up a linked server from Microsoft SQL Server to access the postgresql server using the postgres 64 bit odbc driver.
Start writing TSQL to transfer the data.
