How to migrate Oracle to MySQL
It may sound unbelievable but I have found nothing when googling for some good !owTo regarding
the migration from Oracle to "yS#$. %ortunately based on various tips spread across numerous sites I
have finally succeeded after almost & days thanks to the SQLyog software. 'hy not to share this
experience then( The following are the components that were used by me in the migration process)
* CentOS 5.4 server with Oracle 11.1.0.6.0 + source
* Ubuntu 12.04.2 server with MySQL 5.5.29 + destination
* indo!s Ser"er 200# $2 acting as an agent
%irst of all as I was using the 'indows server as an agent I had to configure both Oracle and "yS#$
,-"S that they.re accessible via network. To accomplish that follow these steps)
/0 Oracle)
1ccording to some tips that I found on the Oracle endpoint the only thing you need to do is to check if
the Oracle listener is running. If so you should be able to connect remotely)
lsnrctl status
Indeed I was able to connect. Then you can create a dedicated user that will be used in the migration
process and grant him proper privileges)
SQL> create user migration identified by 'migration';
User created.
SQL> grant all privileges to migration;
Grant succeeeded.
&0 "yS#$)
* In %etc%&ys'l%&y.cn( file change the value of bind)address attribute from 12*.0.0.1 to I2
address of the 3IC
* 4rant proper privileges to the user that will be used in the migration process based on the
I2 address of the agent. In my case I also created an empty database for that purpose)
mysql> C!"#! $"#"%"S! db;
Query &'( ) ro* affected +,.,- sec.
mysql> G"/# "LL &/ db.0 #& migration1').2.3.4' 5$!/#565!$ %7 'migration';
Query &'( , ro*s affected +,.28 sec.
That.s all we need to do on the source and destination sides. The rest of work is done by the agent. On
a dedicated 'indows box follow this steps then)
/0 Install S#$yog "yS#$ 45I software. There is a 67 days trial version available to download for
everyone. 8ou don.t need to register to download it. The only thing that you need to do is to provide a
valid email address that a link and installation instructions are sent to you. The installation process is
self explainary.

Great information and clear instruction. BTW, does this migration also migrate data into each table or just
the schema?
Thanks.
