The benefits of migrating databases from Oracle to SQL Server:

SQL Server can handle massive volumes of data

SQL Server is more cost-effective than Oracle database 

SQL Server offers exclusive reporting systems

Oracle has been the mainstay among database management systems for organizations around the world for decades. However, the current data-driven business environment requires databases to provide unlimited storage capacities and high computing power while being affordable. All these combined can only be possible on a cloud-based platform, one of the reasons why migrating databases from Oracle to SQL Server is so popular today.

How to migrate databases from Oracle to SQL Server.

Follow the steps given below to migrate databases from Oracle to SQL server.

After a new SSMA project is created, project conversion, type mapping, and migration options have to be implemented.

The Oracle database server and an instance of the SQL Server have to be connected.

The Oracle database schemas are required to be mapped to SQL Server database schemas.

Next, the Oracle database schemas have to be converted into SQL Server schemas.

The converted database objects are to be loaded into SQL Server either by saving a script and running it in SQL Server or by synchronizing the database objects.

Finally, migrate data Oracle to SQL Server and update all database applications.

There are two migration methods that may be followed:

One-shot method: The entire Oracle to SQL Server database migration is completed in one shot. The entire system must be shut down so that any incremental data after the final backup is not left out.

Phased migration: Here the first method is first completed and then, migration is carried out in phases at certain intervals to include the movement of new data.
