Search tool for database migration (freeware)

Question

I am looking for a database dump tool, including DDL and content, like plain SQL-Script so that it can be archived in text format. I know for example. Oracle dump tools or MySQL dump, but is there a tool that can connect to various data sources and do the work? The GUI would be great.

Answer 1

Check out http://squirrel-sql.sourceforge.net/ . Gui is cross-platform and supports any database with jdbc driver.

Answer 2

Look at the set of free SSMA Microsft tools (Oracle, Sybase, MySQL ..) http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2005/en/us/Migration-oracle.aspx
