I wrote a method that gathers data from an Oracle server, formats and encrypts the data then inserts it into a MS SQL server. The method moves about 60000 records and takes a bit long and is a little sloppy. Can anyone see places to clean it up and make it faster?
2 of the areas that I see might need improvements are when the result set is being added the the List. And when the List is being inserted 1000 rows at a time into the MS SQL table.
Here is the code:
public static void get_random_selection(Connection ora_conn, Connection sql_conn) throws Exception, SQLException{
Statement sql_stmt = sql_conn.createStatement();
Statement ora_stmt = ora_conn.createStatement();
ResultSet sql_rs = null;
ResultSet ora_rs = null;
//Select the max QUARTER from RANDOM_SELECTION in MS SQL
sql_rs = sql_stmt.executeQuery("SELECT MAX(QUARTER) FROM RANDOM_SELECTION");
sql_rs.next();
int max_from_mssql = sql_rs.getInt(1);
ora_rs = ora_stmt.executeQuery("SELECT MAX(QUARTER) FROM RANDOM_SELECTION");
ora_rs.next();
int max_from_oracle = ora_rs.getInt(1);
//If the max_from_oracle is larger than max_from_mssql than the AL's and RL's in Oracle
//are fresher and need to be moved to MS SQL
//if (max_from_oracle > max_from_mssql){
if(1==1){
System.out.println("The RANDOM_SELECTION table in Oracle is more up to date than the RANDOM_SELECTION table in MS SQL.");
System.out.println("Retrieving RANDOM_SELECTION data from Oracle.");
//select items from RANDOM_SELECTION and DROPPER_CITY_BRK_2 that need to be moved
ora_rs = ora_stmt.executeQuery("select distinct(random_selection.randnum), "
+ "random_selection.quarter, "
+ "random_selection.ozip3, "
+ "random_selection.boxid, "
+ "random_selection.boxaddr, "
+ "random_selection.locdesc, "

+ "and dropper_city_brk_2.dropper_id <> 10002 "
+ "and random_selection.quarter = " + max_from_oracle + " "
+ "and random_selection.dropper_id is null");
System.out.println("Retrieved RANDOM_SELECTION data from Oracle.");
List<String[]> random_selection = new ArrayList<String[]>();
System.out.println("Assigning ResultSet to List.");
while (ora_rs.next()){
random_selection.add(new String[]{
ora_rs.getString("RANDNUM"),
ora_rs.getString("QUARTER"),
ora_rs.getString("OZIP3"),

The client wants to refrain from any open connections between the 2 servers.
The problem with this is likely with the large number of inserts being done on the MS SQL server. It’s not very efficient to do that.
The correct way to transfer data between two databases (without linking) is to bcp rows in and out.
First, keep in mind that I don’t have any experience with BCP outside of sybase.
Figure out how to get your data into MS bcp format. There are a few ways this could be done. I would try to create a view with all required in the oracle db and bcp out from there, but that may not be possible with the encrypt() stuff.
bcp in.
