Re: How best can a synchronisation be done between Oracle and MySQL

Remi,
I'm doing something similar at my work. We solved this issue through the use of Perl. With Perl DBI (Database Interface), you can connect to virtually any data sources and it is super fast - at least it has been for the things were doing - and it's platform indepentant (for the most part, anyway).
To make a Perl DBI connection, you will need the client for the database you are connecting to installed and the Perl DBD (Database Driver) installed. These DBD's can be installed directly from CPAN (www.cpan.org) or from ActiveState (www.activestate.org) if you are using the Windows Perl interpreter.
We investigates using scripts and java for handling the data moving, but Perl proved to be the best option for us. Perl was relatively easy to learn and there is a ton of information on the web to help you develop your program.

Hope this helped.
Craig...
