How to set up scheduled data extraction in Oracle?

In Oracle database, you can use the Oracle Job Scheduler to set up tasks for extracting data on a regular schedule. Here is an example of setting up a task for extracting data:
1. Create a stored procedure or function for extracting data. For example, create a stored procedure `extract_data` to extract data from the table `my_table`.

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE extract_data AS

BEGIN

  INSERT INTO target_table (col1, col2, col3)

  SELECT col1, col2, col3

  FROM my_table

  WHERE condition;

  COMMIT;

END;

Create a job for scheduling the execution of a data extraction stored procedure. For example, create a job named `extract_data_job` to run at 3 AM daily.

BEGIN

  DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB (

    job_name        => 'extract_data_job',

    job_type        => 'PLSQL_BLOCK',

    job_action      => 'BEGIN extract_data; END;',

    start_date      => SYSTIMESTAMP,

    repeat_interval => 'FREQ=DAILY; BYHOUR=3;',

    enabled         => TRUE);

END;

In the example above, `start_date` is set to the current time, `repeat_interval` is set to daily repetition, and `BYHOUR=3` means the job will execute every day at 3 a.m. Enable the job.

BEGIN

  DBMS_SCHEDULER.ENABLE('extract_data_job');

END;

After enabling a job, it will automatically execute at the set repeat interval. You can use the ‘DBA_SCHEDULER_JOBS’ view to see the created jobs and their status.

SELECT job_name, state

FROM dba_scheduler_jobs

WHERE owner = 'your_owner_name';

This is a simple example of setting up scheduled data extraction, which you can adjust according to your needs and business logic.
