SQL Server 2008 isnt set to be released to manufacturing until the second quarter of next year. But Microsoft already is taking aim at Oracle with its

26.09.2008SQL Server Migration Assistant
(SSMA) for Oracle V2.0
Released
Once upon a time,
migrating from an Oracle
database to SQL Server was a
challenge for even the most
seasoned database
administrator. Now, the SSMA
offers a complete suite of
tools to help you automate all
phases of the migration
process. SSMA enables you to
migrate from Oracle to
Microsoft SQL Server quickly,
easily and
accurately.
As you probably know,
Microsoft recently launched a
tool called SQL Server
Migration Assistant (SSMA). It
allows an easy migration of
Oracle databases to SQL
Server, focusing on
automatically converting
PL/SQL to T-SQL. Hundreds of
companies around the world
have been successfully using
SSMA to get off Oracle. Among
those you'll find Motorola,
Sony Ericsson, Dow,
Simon&Schuster, Atento, Sonata
Software, and many others.
SSMA typically automates 80%
of the code conversion, which
greatly reduces the time and
the cost of the migration. And
what's really important -
SSMA is a free
download!
Using
SSMA, the time, cost, and risk
associated with migrating to
SQL Server are greatly
reduced, which increases the
likelihood of a successful
project. This enables your
team to take advantage of SQL
Server's superior developer
productivity, scalability, and
security, as well as the
industry's lowest total cost
of ownership (TCO)...
