We have excellent Oracle Data Integrator and Oracle Golden Gate skills and ourhighly-experienced professionals are certified in these technologies.

Database & Technology

In addition, since 2008 we have been performing OWB to ODI migrations, having designed and developed a semi-automated tool that allows any company to

migrate to ODI,saving them a great deal of time and money compared to a manual migration.

For having developed this migration tool, we have been referenced by Oracle Corporation itself.

We are also offering our experience in migrating from OWB to ODI using the tool recently developed by Oracle regarding migrations from the

latest release of OWB11g to the latest release of ODI12c.


FromOracle Data IntegrationStatement of Direction:

So if client has to migrate or wants to migrate from OWB to ODI, a transfer ofthe OWB components to equivalent ODI components needs to be planned

OWB2ODI Converter is a semi-automatic tool developed by D&T to assist the migration of OWB projects into ODI projects

OWB2ODI Converter can speed up the migration process significantly

The conversion can be done either at the customer or in outsourcing, starting from export of the OWB project

About the Converter

OWB2ODI Converter acquires OWB repository’s metadata and it generates the corresponding ODI repository.

Algorithms in OWB are transferred in ODI and OWB operators are transformed in corresponding ODI operators.

Product overview

Supported versions

OWB v. 9.2 or higherODI v. 10g or higher

After initial assessment phase with the client, a specific Converter component extracts metadata from the OWB .mdl file.

In their own laboratories, D&T uses the OWB2ODI Converter to automatically generate the corresponding ODI project from the original OWB one.

The generated ODI project is sent to the client for the acceptance test.

General architecture

How Converter Migrates OWB Metadata

OWB2ODI Converter can migrate:

OWB Project ODI Project

OWB Location ODI Topology Logical Schema

OWB Module ODI Folder

OWB Mapping

ODI 11g: ODI Packages ODI Interfaces ODI Temporary Interfaces

ODI 12c: ODI PackageODI Mapping

Migration to ODI 11g

Complex Mappings need to be split into several interfaces to generate the same SQL Code


Migration to ODI 12c

Many similarities between ODI 12c and OWB mapping. Little rework for particular combination of operators
