Connecting to Oracle database using powershell script. Error while connecting - sql

Question

I am trying to connect to a database using the Hostname and SID values through a powershell script.
My code:
$DataSource ='HOSTNAME:PORT/INSTANCE'
$Username='Username'
$Password='Password'
#List
$UserDataDT = New-Object System.Data.DataTable
$SQLConnection = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection
$SQLConnection.ConnectionString = "Data Source=$DataSource;User Id=$Username;Password=$Password;"
$SQLCmd= New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand
$SQLConnection.open();
$SQLCmd.Connection = $SQLConnection
$SqlCmd.CommandTimeout = 600
I am getting the following error:
catch Exception...
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establish
ing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is corre

Error Number:123,State:0,Class:20
I've also tried keeping the $DataSource value as:
$DataSource ='(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(Host=hostname)(Port=0000)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=abc)))'
Could anyone help me what is the issue with my scirpt.
Thanks in advance

Connected using the Oracle database. Made changes accordingly and it worked, Used Oracleclient entry instead of SQLClient.
$OracleConnection = New-Object System.Data.OracleClient.OracleConnection
