This is a driver that allows Drupal to use an Oracle Database as the primary backend.
To create drupal nodes in a MySQL backend from Oracle tables you should use something like migrate project, which is a robust data migration solution.
Eventually, you can even store your site "files" directory inside Oracle with oranfs module (let's say to have Oracle RMAN backup all your user data or to search on it with the Oracle Text engine) or even use storage_api to implement an Oracle backend for file storage.
