## Accessing remote Oracle servers from BigAnimal

BigAnimal supports the [edb_dblink_oci](/epas/latest/epas_compat_sql/21_create_public_database_link/#setting-up-an-oracle-instant-client-for-oci-database-link) extension and a set of [dblink_ora](/epas/latest/epas_compat_ora_dev_guide/06_dblink_ora/) functions, which you can use to create Oracle syntax-compatible database links and include calls to functions that are only available in Oracle, respectively.

## Migrating from Postgres

Several options are available for migrating EDB Postgres Advanced Server and PostgreSQL databases to BigAnimal. One option is to use the Migration Toolkit. Another simple option for many use cases is to import an existing PostgreSQL or EDB Postgres Advanced Server database to BigAnimal. See [Importing an existing Postgres database](cold_migration).
