Database Transformation Services (DTS) in SQL Server 200 was a breakthrough tool, really paving the way for a low-cost, easy to use, ETL tool.

SQL Server has drivers to read almost any data source, but they are not always the easiest to work with. New author Kevin Terry spent quite some time learning how he could pull data from Outlook using DTS and scripting. Most information on the internet requires Exchange to be on the same server as SQL Server to get the data, but this solution works with any configuration, and can pull any information, email address, contact information, etc. from Outlook.

Oracle is usually a dirty word in the SQL Server community, but like it or not, lots of data resides in Oracle databases. And SQL Server is often used to gather this data together in a warehouse of some sort for spinning cubes, generating reports, etc. Haidong Ji looks at the various methods that you can connect to an Oracle driver and compares the speed of each. If you need to get data from Oracle, or may need to, this is the place you want to start.
