Handles migrations well and has reduced our downtime
For small databases that are less than a terabyte, GoldenGate handles the migration well. You don't need much input so long as the processes don't upend. As soon as there's a problem, then, obviously, you need to diagnose it. It all depends on the scenario, on the size of the databases, whether you're doing schema replication, or table replication. We normally do the whole database, taking everything across. Finally, because this is an Oracle product, there is support available 24/7.

A low-code/no-code platform with a user-friendly UI
We couldn't implement or use some of the latest functionalities, like Spark. Palantir Foundry is scalable, but it is costly compared to other cloud providers. The solution is more suitable for small and medium businesses. It might be difficult for large enterprises. I rate the solution’s scalability a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I like that the product transforms data and provides real-time applications."
"The CDC feature is interesting."
"GoldenGate can connect and collect data from multiple sources, such as SQL Server."
"It's very simple to configure, it's very simple to implement. In addition, the ability it has to capture data and transmit it with incredible speed is better than any of the product out there. It's extremely powerful."
"You can use Oracle GoldenGate as a DR for your system."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate is its ability to sync data in real-time, which is crucial for me."
"The platform's most helpful features are its speed and its guarantee of data replication from one database to another."
"Many of the features of Oracle GoldenGate are valuable. We use Oracle databases and this tool is from Oracle, making it have superior compatibility."
"The solution offers very good end-to-end capabilities."
"I like the data onboarding to Palantir Foundry and ETL creation."
"The solution provides an end-to-end integrated tech stack that takes care of all utility/infrastructure topics for you."
"The interface is really user-friendly."
"The AI engine that comes with Palantir Foundry is quite interesting."
"The data lineage is great."
"It is easy to map out a workflow and run trigger-based scripts without having to deploy to another server."
"Live video sessions enhance the available documentation and allow you to ask questions directly."
 

Cons

"Monitoring must be a bit more enhanced."
"You cannot put everything in Golden Gate for the license and large models."
"The main problem of Oracle GoldenGate is that sometimes, the processes get abended. Data consistency is also challenging."
"The product lacks some features and it's expensive."
"Lacks the ability to become a full-scale ETL tool."
"The front-end management isn't very good."
"The solution is quite costly, and if they could reduce their pricing, it would be more economical to implement."
"The process of transforming the data between two different databases is inefficient and needs to be improved."
"The data lineage was challenging. It's hard to track data from the sources as it moves through stages. Informatica EDC can easily capture and report it because it talks to the metadata. This is generated across those various staging points."
"The frontend capabilities of Palantir Foundry could be improved."
"If you want to create new models on specific data sets, computing that is quite costly."
"The solution's visualization and analysis could be improved."
"There is not a wide user base for the solution's online documentation so it is sometimes difficult to find answers."
"They do not have a data center in Europe, and we have lots of personally identifiable information in our dataset that needs to be hosted by a third-party data center like Amazon or Microsoft Azure."
"It would be helpful to build applications based on Azure functions or web apps in Palantir Foundry."
"The workflow could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Oracle GoldenGate's cost is high."
"The one feature that I think Oracle could perhaps consider is, at the moment, the Veridata option is an extra cost. Golden Gate is an expensive product. You pay a lot for the best. But not including the Veridata license to prove that everything is working correctly... The big improvement for me would be to have that license built in. That would take it to the next level. That would make it a much better product. You may want to look at buying term licenses if you've just got a single migration to do. In that situation, you might want a term license for perhaps a year to save a lot of money, rather than buying a perpetual license."
"Its price can be better. It is a bit crazy, and its licensing is very difficult to understand. I would rate it one out of five in terms of pricing. There don't seem to be any additional costs."
"Oracle GoldenGate's license can be expensive compared to other solutions like Qlik Replicate or SAP Replicate."
"We do like the price of this solution."
"The tool is a bit expensive."
"We have purchased corporate licensing to use Oracle GoldenGate."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"Palantir Foundry is an expensive solution."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
"Palantir Foundry has different pricing models that can be negotiated."
"It's expensive."
