Attunity driver Usage

  • There was a nice blog post over on http://blogs.msdn.com/sqlperf/archive/2009/08/14/using-ssis-to-get-data-out-of-oracle-a-big-surprise.aspx that was mentioned in the Database Weekly email for this week?

    I posted there as well, but I figured I would post here as well as I'm not sure how much visibility that post will get.

    One drawback I saw with this is that you can not use an expression for the SQL command on the object.

    I have a package that I dynamically build a SQL statement to only pull in rows with certain criteria. I suppose I could pull in the entire table and use some of the filtering data flow objects to only take the records i need, but that would somewhat defeat the purpose of limiting the selected rows.

    Anyone have the same experience with this tool?

    Hopefully it can be built into a newer version, because I would love to use it.

    That's a good idea, I would write a nice letter to Attunity - I don't think they are monitoring this forum to put together a wish list 🙂

  • Are you performing DB to DB transfer? Would the gain be cancelled out by bring over additional data and having to filter it out?

    I'm in the same situation where trying to use sql command variable but Attunity is coming up short.
