Oracle 10g Enterprise Edition Backup to .sql file - oracle10g

I have oracle 10g enterprise edition. I want to perform table backup and full database backup to .sql files to be able to move to another server/PC ...
If possible, image explanation ...

If you want to move to a different Oracle server, you should use:
expdp
To export your data. And:
impdp
To import it on the other database. Here's a WIKI entry that might help you. It's the easy way of moving data around Oracle servers.
On the other hand, ff you want to move your data to a different DATABASE SERVER (not Oracle branded) you would need some sort of translator in the way.

How do i dump data from an Oracle Database without access to the database's file system

I am trying to dump the schema and data from an existing Oracle DB and import it into another Oracle DB.
I have tried using the "Export Wizard" provided by sqldeveloper.
I found answers using Oracle Data Pump, however i do not have access to the filesystem of the DB server.
I expect to get a file that i can copy and import into another DB
Without Data Pump, you have to make some concessions.
The biggest concession is you're going to ask a Client application, running somewhere on your network, to deal with a potentially HUGE amount of data/IO.
Withing reasonable limits, you can use the Tools > Database Export wizard to build a series of SQLPlus style scripts, both DDL (CREATEs) and DATA (INSERTs).
Once you have those scripts, you can use SQLPlus, SQLcl, or SQL Developer to run them on your new/target database.

postgreSQL backup restoration using bkp.tar.gz file

I am an Oracle DBA and I got a bkp.tar.tgz PostgreSQL backup file to restore on server. Vendor provided backup file before closing contract. I don't have any information for backup file.
I have below questions.
PostgreSQL backup can be restored on cross platform OS? If no, then how can I know what is source OS.
PostgreSQL db version needs to be same? Or doesn't matter? How to find db version from bkp file? They said it's PostgreSQL 9.4.5
Is there any other way I can access data from backup file?

How to migrate a db2 database

I have a db2 database on a device which does not have internect connectivity and would like to move this database to another place. I have taken a backup from my database, can I use the 'restore' command to create a clone of this database?
To move a Db2 database from on-premise to Db2 Warehouse on Cloud, one option is to use IBM Lift CLI. https://www.lift-cli.cloud.ibm.com/
You will need to have internet connectivity from the place your data resides on-premise - either a Db2 database, or failing that CSV files.
If all you have is a Db2 backup image, you would need to restore that into a local database, or use the (chargeable) utility High Performance Unload to extract table data as CSV files from the backup image. IBM Lift CLI does not support Db2 backup images as a source for migration to the cloud.
Note that if you use CSV files, you will need to extract the DDL from the source database and create the empty tables on the target.

I am in need of connecting to DB2 AS/400 database from Oracle Apex.

Is there any feasibility from Oracle to have a connection established to DB2 database so that I can query on DB2 database and generate reports from Oracle Apex?
OR
Is it possible to create a View in Oracle from a remote DB2 database?
OR
What options do i have in order to develop reports in Oracle Apex from the data i have in DB2 database?
(I know, this is an old question and you've already found a workaround. Anyway,) the keyword you might be interested in is gateway. This is Oracle 10g Database Gateway for DB2/400 Installation and User's Guide. I don't know which database you use, but - if 10g is not the one, I hope you'll manage to find the right documentation.
Shortly: after installing the gateway between Oracle and DB2, you'd create a database link. Then, in your Oracle schema, create a view that selects data over that database link from DB2 database. Finally, fetch data in Apex from the view.
As i didn't find a way to directly connect to DB2 from Oracle PL/SQL, i used a work-around. As this is a reporting tool, we are ok to have this tool running with the data which is 1 day off, we did the following:
1) Extract the data required from DB2 database to CSV files. We used a DB2 command which can be run at command line to extract the data into a CSV
2) Then we imported the data into Oracle tables using sqlldr

How to Restore data from MS SQL 2012 to MS SQL 2008 using .bak file. Is this Possible?

I have a requirement that am facing difficulty i.e. restoring a data from MS SQL 2012 to MS SQL 2008 using .bak file. when am trying to restore , am getting an error. is this possibility to restore this to downgrade.
can any one help me how to restore ?
Unfortunately SQL Server will not go backwards. The only way you can do this is Using SSIS to transfer the data or you can use the import/export utility.
On your 2012 Server Right click on the DB you want to export data from and scroll down to tasks and then choose export data it will have you then insert all of the information for both the source and destination servers then on the summary page click mappings and make sure they are correct for what you need and the DB it is going to is correct. Then follow the screens until you can click finish. YOu may have too play with it for a little bit to get it to behave nicely but this should work for you.
If all you have is a BAK file you may have to resotre it to a dummy DB on the 2012 server first.
