Oracle external procedures, accessing PostgreSQL would do the trick
without flat files.

Anyone have experience doing this? I would like to hear your tips and

Here's our situation. We have an Oracle DB on Sun Solaris 8 and a
PostgreSQL
DB on Linux (RH 7.3) that we need to share data between, specifically
from
PostgreSQL to Oracle. I want to experiment with Oracle's Generic
Connectivity via ODBC connection. The advantage here seems to be
DB-to-DB
connection, ability to use Oracle SQL and tools, etc. Limitations
might be
network performance.
An alternative is to produce flat files from PostgreSQL, FTP them to
Oracle
server, and SQL*Load them into Oracle. Not a real-time solution, but
load
performance is usually very good with SQL*Loader.

Thoughts?
