Snowflake FAQ

Should I load information directly to Snowflake from Oracle or load via remote storage?

For testing purposes, loading directly into Snowflake is the fastest way to get started and check you are achieving the desired results. However, we don’t recommend choosing this approach for a particularly large dataset or once you move to a production environment. At this stage, it is recommended to sync the data from your source to a CSV or JSON file in a remote storage environment such as S3 or Google Cloud Storage and then running a Snowflake cron job or using SnowPipe to load that information into a Snowflake stage.

You can choose between basic authentication using a username and password or use a private and public key pair to authenticate with Snowflake. If you choose to use a private key, you can either place this inline in the specification or reference a separate file where the private key is stored.

Oracle FAQ

How do I authenticate with Oracle to set up my sync?

CloudQuery relies on a configuration file in order to authenticate with Oracle and supports the same authentication methods as the Oracle Go SDK. Full information on creating and maintaining an authentication file can be found in the Oracle documentation hub.

CloudQuery can read information about your Oracle database setup, how it is being used, the resources that it is relying on, your security and backup settings and much more. A full list of the tables that can be synced from Oracle to Snowflake can be found in our tables documentation.
