Generaly it's not possible to "replicate" between oracle and mysql
as they both contain features that don't exist on the other system,
sequences and enums being obvious examples.
The same is true between sqlserver and mysql, oracle and sqlserver
and so on.
So, the obvious question is, why do you need both systems?
Can you get rid of one?
Lots of Greetings!
