When I tested HS (Oracle to DB2), we needed good drivers. In stepped Data Direct, which proved to be a not so insignificant extra cost item for what we wanted to get out of it.

Of course - the heterogenous services is even simpler to set up than the Gateway for ODBC. You just need to find ODBC Drivers for your platform.

I used the Transparent Gateway for ODBC recently because the client didn't want to install any extra software to a database server (db servers are for DBs only, right) so we used a gateway on an app server for that.

AFAIK it is free.

HS has always been free in the past. Gateway Service is different and is not free.

All this fun talk about ORA<->SS -- anyone have links pointing to licensing requirements for HS?

The closest I can find is mention of "Generic Connectivity" in the Oracle Database 10g Product Family white paper.

Thanks!
