The software we are using supplies pretty good accesibilty to DBs, but the problem is that in the beginning we will need to get great portions of the data down to a laptop and apply our alogrythems. This is necessary as the alogrythems are a bit experimental and will therefore need excessive testing and we do not have 24/7 access to the data by now. Now the problem is choosing the right local DB and a way to get the data "unharmed" there. The main DB will be an oracle, but the local DB should be something less expensive as it will only be for testing purposes.

thx in advance
