How can I configure the symmetric db engine to replicate a SpatiaLite database ?
If there are no way what's the steps to add a new platform to symmetric db?
No, there’s no support
Fork the source code from developer’s repository, find a support, try to replicate it and after testing submit a patch back
Have tried using the SQL Lite dialect? It appears the SpatiaLite database is just an extension to SQL Lite for spatial data. SymmetricDS works with Oracle and Postgres spatial data out of the box. So treating it as a SQL Lite node may be sufficient. If there are additional libraries that need added you can put them in the lib folder of SymmetricDS and restart.

I'm developing an app with one of my friends and it'll use an Oracle database. We can sync the code with github but what about the database? Is it possible to somehow use git for that as well?
I assume the recommended approach would be to use a central online database somehow. Where do I start with that? Docker? We are both inexperienced in web development. We also have no requirement to make the database online(it's a university course project) so I do not want to go through that hassle if possible.
You can store your SQL scripts (like your DDL commands to create your tables, etc.) in GitHub, just like any other code, but your Oracle database won't interface with it directly. You can use Oracle's SQL Developer as an IDE to interface with GitHub.

Traditional Oracle is free for academic and training purposes, and there is also a free cloud offering now as well. You can run it from a laptop, a VM using VirtualBox, or from the Oracle Cloud. Unless you need a specific option with Enterprise Edition, your best (least complicated) bet, is probably to go with the Oracle 18c XE version, available here: https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/xe-downloads.html
We built a commerical tool that helps database developers use Git with the Oracle Database. It tracks the changes in database objects and helps you to commit them to Git. It might be worth takinga look: https: www.gitora.com
First of all, I am sorry because it might be a stupid question but after a day research I am confused and I have a very less time to decide.
We are using TFS as a CI tool and as an SCM. And Postgresql for DB.
Planning to Automate DB with Postgresql and TFS.
Please suggest a tool for this that I can go forward with running my SQL files on specific DB as I want.
Can anyone please tell me if I use DbUp Migration Extension of TFS is it supporting Postgresql? As this link shows it only works with Microsoft SQL Server or Microsoft SQL Azure and then another Document says DbUp supports a number of different databases including Postgresql.
also, Does Flyway have support for c# and TFS ?
Most popular tools to do what you want is Liquibase and Flyway.
As I know there is only one significant difference: Flyway - plain SQL based, Liquibase - provides abstraction level based on XML, JSON or YAML as well as plain SQL. You can use abstractions (provided by Liquibase) to increase portability of your scripts.
how to create a synonym for a table of a schema in postgresql database on a server into a schema of oracle database on another server?
I have a schema on oracle database on a server and want to create a synonym a table present in a schema of postgresql database on another server.
To create the synonym, we need to have database remote link between these two databases present on two different servers.
How can we do this? Please provide me one solution.
Just to clarify, I believe the question is trying to figure out how to get PostgreSQL data to appear as a table inside of Oracle. (The existing comments seem to be reading it the other way around, in which case, yes, an FDW would be the solution, but in this case that will not work).
In the past (on older versions of Oracle) when we needed this we were forced to build custom replication scripts to transfer data from Postgres into Oracle systems. For a single table, it is pretty straightforward to do with something like Perl & DBI... feel free to substitute that with your favorite scripting language.
On newer Oracle systems, I believe you can use Oracle Database Gateway to accomplish this. I am not sure if they support Postgres directly, but they do support ODBC (and I think JDBC) which should work. Here is an example blog post setting this up with MSSQL (http://oracle-help.com/oracle-database/installation-oracle-database-gateway/), the process should be similar for Postgres.
Hope this helps!
I have a .GDB database (old one) and the data in it is very important
I need to convert that .gdb database to a SQL Server database - can anyone help me...
Create connections to both source GDB and Destination SQL Server in ArcCatalog. Copy everything from source and paste it into the destination. You won't be able to do it with SQL tools alone.
Lacking ESRI software, for simple cases, my workflow is to use the GDAL C++ API to read the GDB. This requires the GDAL File GDB driver. Then I will use Microsoft.SqlServer.Types to transfer to SQL Server. This involves low-level APIs and you need to understand the spatial types in the respective libraries. It gets complex if you have polygons with rings, for example.
I'm not aware of a tool that will automatically convert between these database types. You'll need to use an application that can read the old database type (Firebase), learn the table design, create a similar table design in SQL Server, and use the application to load the data from Firebase to SQL Server.
Typically, this kind of work is called ETL (Extract/Transform/Load) and is done with migration tools like SQL Server Integration Service (SSIS). SSIS is free with SQL Server, and there are a lot of books available on how to use it - but like learning to develop software, this isn't a small task.
The easiest way to export Esri File Geodatabase FGDB (.gdb) data to MS SQL Server is with ArcGIS for Desktop at the Standard or Advanced level.
You may also want to try exporting to shapefile (SHP) format (an open transitional format) then import to your MS SQL Server. I've seen a tool online that has worked for me called Shape2SQL.
Esri also has an open File Geodatabase API that you can use to write your own too.
I highly recommend FME Workbench for GIS data conversion. It's like SQL Server Integration Services (ETL) but for GIS. Graphical interface, connect data readers with data writes, insert transforms, run them, etc.
Has anyone been successful using Amazon Redshift as a source or destination ODBC component in SQL Server Data Tools 2012?
I've installed the PostgreSQL drivers provided by Amazon and have successfully tested a connection in the Windows ODBC driver administrator but keep running into arcane error messages when I choose my saved DSN and try to pull a table listing.
Redshift is based on quite an old version of Postgres (8.0). Postgres has changed quite a bit since then and the Postgres tools have changed with it. When downloading any tools to use with Redshift you will probably need to use previous versions from several years ago.
The table listing problem is particularly annoying but I have yet to find a version of psql that can properly list Redshift tables. As an alternative you can use the INFORMATION_SCHEMA tables to find this kind of info, and in my opinion this is what SSIS/SSDT should be doing by default.
I would not expect SSIS to be able to load data into Redshift reliably, i.e. create a Redshift destination. This is because Redshift does not really support INSERT INTO as a way to load data. If you use INSERT INTO you will only be able to load ~10 rows per second. Redshift can only load data quickly from S3 or DynamoDB using the COPY command.
It's a similar story for all other ETL tools I've tried, notably the open source tools Pentaho PDI (aka Kettle) and Talend Open Studio. This is particularly annoying in Talend's case as they have Redshift components but they actually try to use INSERT INTO for loading. Even Amazon's own ETL tool Data Pipeline does not yet have support for Redshift as 'node'.
I have been successful. Try installing both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the PostgreSQL ODBC drivers.
Also, in your Project Properties under 'Configuration Properties' > 'Debugging', set 'Run64BitRuntime' to False.
You can also try specifying the connection string in Connection Manager. For example:
Driver={PostgreSQL ANSI};
server=redshiftdb.d113klxjd4ac.us-west-2.redshift.amazonaws.com;uid=;database=;port=5432
