I have two databases:
I need to get some information from the MSSQL DB, however the result (Select) would be limited according to a parameter (date) coming from the MySQL one. The DBs are located in different servers.
Do I have to perform two queries for this or is possible to do it just in one ?
Thanks!
It would be possible to have the MySQL server defined as a linked server object in MS SQL, and therefore possible to query only the MS SQL server, calling the MySQL linked server in the query. This adds administrative overhead though and you might lose good error checking on the MySQL host if it was down.
It makes much more sense to me to just setup two connection resources and query them individually.
