Currently, we use the PL SQL to connect and query the Oracle database. Software is built on .NET platform (VB, ASP). We have a implementation project in which we need to host our data set in the SQL server database too. May be completely or partially for some specific modules. Some modules might have to use data from both Oracle and SQL Server Databases.<br />
<br />
My Question is : Please suggest a memory and cost efficient process to be able to do this. My idea about it is that we just &nbsp;need to declare respective connection strings in global.asax file and use them appropriately when needed. Right ? Or is there any catch to it ?

Using SQL Server and Oracle Database in one project

Microsoft SQL Server is a suite of relational database management system (RDBMS) products providing multi-user database access functionality.SQL Server is available in multiple versions, typically identified by release year, and versions are subdivided into editions to distinguish between product functionality. Component services include integration (SSIS), reporting (SSRS), analysis (SSAS), data quality, master data, T-SQL and performance tuning.

Oracle is an object-relational database management system. It supports a large number of languages and application development frameworks. Its primary languages are SQL, PL/SQL and Java, but it also includes support for C and C++. Oracle also has its own enterprise modules and application server software.

Oracle Database

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,
