Real-time data streaming has simplified transformations and kept enterprise databases synchronized
Oracle GoldenGate is good, but I would like to improve it. There is a need for whoever installs and configures Oracle GoldenGate to set the correct parameters for the use cases we need to use. In some cases, we had performance problems related to the streaming because there was a lot of information to stream concurrently. However, you can tune Oracle GoldenGate to use more RAM on the source side or more processes. I think that sometimes what is missing is knowledge about the tool from the person responsible for configuration. At this moment, Oracle GoldenGate is a very good tool, and I do not know in which area we can improve it. Perhaps the debug part of the tool could be improved. In some cases, I use the utility for how Oracle GoldenGate generates messages about the statements that it streams because of bugs, and in some cases, it is not very user-friendly. It may be possible to improve the API or the path related to debugging, but not the tool itself. The tool itself is good. I remember that in some configurations, we had problems with the streaming of DDL, which are changes to Oracle object structures such as tables and procedures. A new feature could be to perform streaming for operational objects such as procedures, functions, packages, or grants. This would synchronize source and target for these aspects, not only for data or the main types of structures, but also for others. I remember that there was some configuration in which you performed the streaming of the entire schema, or if you performed streaming for only tables, then you were unable to stream grants and other Oracle objects. I think it is important to introduce that capability.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product's microservice architecture is scalable."
"Oracle GoldenGate features work fine, which is what I like about it. I also like that it's scalable, easy to set up, and has good technical support."
"We can replicate data across different data centers and different technologies."
"The product's initial setup phase was very simple."
"The CDC feature is interesting."
"The solution, especially the last version, is very stable; even with 3000 data sources and a complex framework, we are finding the solution to be very reliable."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It doesn't take too much time or effort to implement the solution."
"GoldenGate enables us to merge and transform data from various sources in real time. It's a powerful tool that can read and load most data sources."
"Using Precisely improves data quality, which can lead to a 30% increase in revenue and boost net income by 20% to 25% if implemented correctly."
"Precisely has the AI Act already implemented into the data catalog, which allows the integration of the European Artificial Intelligence Act into our processes."
 

Cons

"What needs improvement in Oracle GoldenGate is the support."
"The solution is quite costly, and if they could reduce their pricing, it would be more economical to implement."
"The solution costs a lot."
"The front-end management isn't very good."
"Scalability is a challenge. I believe this area also needs more effort."
"IBM CDC has one central control while Oracle GoldenGate has two controls. In IBM CDC we can do all things in frontend. The solution needs to incorporate a feature where we can connect it to a standby database."
"There are some DDLs that have problems with GoldenGate. These issues detract from stability and it is something that should be improved."
"The solution needs to improve its latency, monitoring and support."
"Precisely works with a tool called Analyze, which has a steep learning curve due to its use of Jython, a combination of Java and Python. This could be improved to make the tool more user-friendly."

"We do like the price of this solution."
"It is an expensive product."
"The tool needs to improve its pricing."
"Oracle GoldenGate's cost is high."
"The solution is highly-priced."
