Take a look at Oracle Gateway or the Equivalent of it in DB2. AFAIK, online replication
across Databases of diff.vendors is still not avbl. though it seems you can do DMLs
from Oracle to other databases (viz, SQL Server, Sybase, DB2) in 10G. Don't know about the reverse.

Or you may considering any of the following: 1. Dump the DB2 data onto flat file and load using sqlldr / External Tables.
2. Generate SQL insert statements using the equivalent of triggers
(capturing

the DMLs in the same sequence) and run it in Oracle.

In either of the above cases , how are you going to handle DDLs if any that are
being done in DB2. The same need to be propogated to Oracle too and the subsequent data inserted correctly.

Hi,

Do any of you have any recommendation about any tools / software which replicate data between DB2 and Oracle ? Are there any good products out in
the market ? I would really appreciate if you could suggest something.

I am looking to replicate around couple of hundred thousand rows a day. The
replication can be every couple of hours. Our main concern is performance on
the transactional system ( source system running db2) should not have significant performance impact.

Thanks.

Thanks
