Transactions Between two Databases

  • I wonder if anyone can help me with this problem:

    I have a sql server database and a oracle database. I need to perform a stored procedure that fires on a table in sql server and then fires on a table in oracle.

    I first need to join the tables from each database first, then perform a transaction on the joined database, then have the databases essentially "break" with the new update info and each table return to their respective databases. I want the transaction to be "all or nothing", so that if something fails, neither the Oracle table or the Sql table will be affected.

    I also may need to join these two tables again to perform a SELECT statement to get the new results.

    Is this possible? Or is there a more simpler way?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks a lot!
