Hello. &nbsp;Question for those familiar with running linked servers between Oracle to SQL Server. &nbsp;How reliable and or efficient is the Oracle to SQL Server linked server connection using the &quot;Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle&quot; data source? &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I ask because I'm not familiar with Oracle but have a project that will require connecting SQL Server to an Oracle db. &nbsp;I've worked with numerous ODBC drivers via linked servers for other non-Oracle databases and have experienced very mixed results, particularly where queries become complex. &nbsp;Anyone with experience on this please chime in.<br />

Thanks.
