Overview
What Is SQL Developer?
Oracle SQL Developer is a free graphical tool that enhances productivity and simplifies database development tasks. Using Oracle
SQL Developer, you can browse database objects, run SQL statements, edit and debug PL/SQL statements and run reports, whether
provided or created.
Microsoft SQL Server Migration Overview
Using Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench, you can quickly migrate your third-party database to Oracle.
There are four main steps in the database migration process:
Capture the Source The first step is to capture a "snapshot" of the Microsoft SQL Server database. This can be done
Database in two ways.
1. Online Capture: This requires creating a connection in SQL Developer to a live Microsoft
SQL Server database. Using JDBC, the Microsoft SQL Server database metadata can
be accessed and the Capture Model created.
2. Offline Capture: This involves BCP scripts generated by SQL Developer to extract the
Microsoft SQL Server database metadata to files. These files can then be "captured" by
SQL Developer to create the Captured Model.

The second method is what you will perform in this tutorial.
Using SQL Developers Offline Capture feature, the Microsoft SQL Server Northwind sample
database has been extracted into offline data files. The SQLServer2005.ocp file generated by
the Capture tool contains the database schema information for the Microsoft SQL Server
Northwind Traders database. Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench uses this file as the
basis for building a representation of the structure of the source Microsoft SQL Server database.
This structure is called the Captured Model.
Convert the Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench uses the Captured Model to convert the captured
Captured Database objects to Oracle-format objects, building up a representation of the structure of the destination
database. This structure is called the Converted Model.
Generate the Oracle Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench generates DDL statements to create the new
Database Oracle database, based upon the Converted Model objects. Running the DDL statements will
result in the creation of the objects in the Oracle database.
Migrate the Data The last step in the process is to migrate the data. You can do this in one of two ways.
1. Online Data Move: You can create a connection from within Oracle SQL Developer to
your Microsoft SQL Server source database and migrate the data.
2. Offline Data Move: You can export the data from Microsoft SQL Server. SQL
Developer</font> will create a series of BCP and sqlldr files that you can run from a
batch file.
The second method is what you will perform in this tutorial.
In this tutorial, the required scripts for the offline migration have already been generated and modified. If you do not have time to
perform this tutorial, you can also view the offline method, click here.

Analysis and Estimation
The migration from Microsoft SQL Server to an Oracle database can be straightforward. But it is worth noting that some objects and
syntax are not automatically migrated. Therefore manual intervention is required.
Analyzing the Capture Model, identifying the number, type and complexity of objects , can help calculate the estimated time required
for manual tasks.
The following Reports can be used with your own task and project estimation.
Migration Reports> Migration Summary

Migration Reports> Migration Details
Migration Reports> Automatic Name Changes
Estimate time to:
Resolve each object the failed to convert manually

Verify and test each object
Changes to the application due to name changes
