replace UTL_FILE with other utility
Hi All,
We are in the process of a database consolidation project, we want all the apps and users to access our db server via database connections ONLY.
We have some java apps calling some PL/SQL stored procedures which use UTL_FILE to read and write files to our database server file system.
We need to replace the UTL_FILE usage with other programs to eliminate db server file system access.
Could you point out what other utilities or even java stored procedures to replace UTL_FILE and allow use to continue to write out files to network share drive?
Thanks,
Jane

Re: replace UTL_FILE with other utility
hi Jane,
It is more a database level question and has nothing to do with the underlying operating system. Which version Oracle are you using?
Technologies coming to my mind right now are: External Tables and WEBDAV.
kind regards

Re: replace UTL_FILE with other utility
As he said, this is a question of design and database system.
If you absolutely have to remove file-system access you have to move the files into the database. Store them as BLOB/CLOB/XML documents. Chosen design is depending on what kinda files and the use of them.
If this is Oracle9 or newer you should atleast remove UTL_FILE and start using DIRECTORY. UTL_FILE is not recommended due to security issues. With DIRECTORY you can give separate oracle-users different rights on the directories(READ/WRITE).

Nobody told me it couldn't be done
