Migrating To SQL Server From Oracle, Part 1

If you're an Oracle professional and need to either work with SQL Server 2005 or are preparing to migrate data from an Oracle database to SQL Server 2005, read Microsoft's white paper, "SQL Server 2005 for Oracle Professionals," to help you better understand the key differences between the two. The two database engines have many similar concepts because both are relational databases, but implementation of these concepts can use different methodologies. Sometimes they both use the same name for different concepts, so don't let yourself get confused when jumping from one platform to the other.

This white paper is a 488 KB PDF file, so it's a quick download. If you don't have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed, Microsoft offers a link.
