I have some people who are asking about 3'rd party data extraction tools to pull data from Oracle into text files for loading a data warehouse. I am not sure what the size of the project is but I think it is pretty big. The DW is Terradata. Anyway, they are stating Oracle tools are too slow. They do not define slow so it is hard to argue with them. My opinion is that it is very dependent on hardware (CPU/Disk) in most cases.
What are your opinions on the matter, do you need 3'rd party? What tools are you using (I am aware of Informatica and such but I think they are looking for something a little cheaper)?
