DB migration method other than the standard heterogeneous copy

[Former Member]

We know that we can use heterogeneous copy to migrate Oracle to SQLserver.

Are there any other way to migrate DB Oracle to SQLserver?

We have the plan to do the migration for our SAP systems in order to reduce the cost.

Thanks!

According to my knowledge there is no other way to migrate from Oracle to MS SQL which is supported/recommended by SAP. You will have to follow heterogenous system copy procedure which has to be done by certified SAP Migration consultant.

How much is the cost to get the certificate?

Thanks!

Hi Christy,

how much does it cost? It depends of the coures you need.... at least you need two certificates.. one as a technology consultant and one as a OS/DB migrator. This should be done in nearly 6 weeks of education ... but the certificate does not mean, that you got (understand) the knowledge you need for a hererogenous system copy. Not only the certificate is necessary, if you want to copy a productive system, a systemcopy project must be placed at SAP and a OSDB-Migration check must be ordered:

Please have a look at the following pages:
