Hi all,
  any pointers about articles that I should read to
facilitate a migration from oracle to postgresl?
Actually, it's not gonna be a full migration, but
rather to have an automated task (possibly via cron
everyday at midnite) to get data from several database
on oracle (which reside on a sun server) to a dual-x86
based system.

TIA.

regards,
Faizol

Worth checking out the "converting" section of http://techdocs.postgresql.org/
