You can load an Oracle JDBC driver to the i and use that... either via Java
or via an an DRDA<-->JDBC Gateway...

The DRDA<-->JDBC gateway allows for the use of embedded SQL in RPG.

Dieter Bender (who's on these list) has an opensource project, ARDGATE part
of APPSERVER4RPG...
https://sourceforge.net/projects/appserver4rpg/


Oracle also offers a product, "Transparent Gateway", that will make the
Oracle DB look like a DRDA DB2 DB from the i and will make the i DB look
like an Orcale DB from the Oracle box. Expect to pay some big $$$.

Okay, to start with let me say I know nothing about AIX and Oracle. So
having said that, this morning I was asked how we can use an RPG program on
IBM i to access data on an AIX Oracle database.

A little background, we are in the process of removing the AIX systems at
one of our locations and as an interim step the programmers want to be able
to read and update files on the AIX system.

I found a listing for an old Oracle product call Access Manager for AS/400
(cringe!). I'm hoping there's another method like ODBC, JDBC, or NFS that
can be used.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
