Features: Oracle GoldenGate is renowned for real-time data integration, high availability, and robust data replication. Talend Data Fabric shines with its comprehensive tools for data integration, quality management, and a user-friendly big data environment. Both products offer significant capabilities, but Talend’s varied tools give it an edge in complex data handling scenarios.

Room for Improvement: Oracle GoldenGate can improve in its user interface simplicity and simplify some advanced configurations, which can be cumbersome for less experienced users. It also could benefit from more seamless integration with non-Oracle environments. Talend Data Fabric could enhance their comprehensive features by improving scalability in massive data environments.

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.

Data governance has improved and complex integrations are handled with flexible customization

Regarding Talend Data Fabric, the ease of use and the customization options that are available are particularly valuable. There are a lot of built-in components and features that we can modify in any way we want to transform the data and make it analytics ready. Talend Data Catalog is another product that, when combined with Talend Data Fabric, can be used for the data governance. The stewardship, ownership, and curation happen mainly from the Data Catalog side. Within Talend Data Fabric, the role-based access control is used for user segregations such as security, infrastructure-related or integration-related activities. It bifurcates the roles and responsibilities. From the data standpoint, the RBAC functions with the help of Data Catalog.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It scales well. You can either have it working in with the databases, or you can move it outside. It's got the ability to parallelize up, so you can certainly extract and replay the data from your databases in parallel. So it does have horizontal scalability. That is probably one of its stronger features, the ability just to automatically parallelize the replay and playing of data to allow to scale to large volumes."

"This solution is priced well, is fast, and doesn't have any impact on our production database."

"The most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate is its cost-effectiveness compared to other solutions like Oracle Data Guard, especially for Oracle-to-non-Oracle replication scenarios."

"The real-time replication feature of the product is particularly beneficial."

"Oracle GoldenGate helps to select and target specific tables for replication. Any changes or operations on those tables are immediately reflected in the source and target environments."

"I recommend buying the product."

"My advice to others is Oracle GoldenGate is one of the best solutions."

"Data replication is seamless, once it is set up on a database."

More Oracle GoldenGate pros

"The Talend data integration has been one of the most valuable features."

"Everything in Talend Data Fabric is GUI-based, making it very user-friendly and easy to learn quickly."

"We've had no issues with the stability so far."

"From my experience around Business Intelligence for data and analytics for around twenty-something years, I can say that what I appreciate about Talend Data Fabric is that we can connect sources to everything and be able to customize everything."

"It is a smart tool for us to design data pipelines. It lets us populate our three data lake instances. We like this solution for its connection capabilities, since it is very important to be able to use many different types of software. We tested a lot of SAP sources successfully, including cloud sources with SAP. It is also very easy to anonymize data with TIBCO, as well as populating HDFS files, packet files, and raw files. It is very easy to do that with Talend Data Fabric."

"There are a lot of built-in components and features that we can modify in any way we want to transform the data and make it analytics ready."

"What I find most valuable about this solution is the 900 connectors because it allows me to integrate any tool and any cloud system I need to integrate and they have a connector out of the box."

"The initial setup is very easy."

More Talend Data Fabric pros

Cons

"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."

"We struggle with memory. It's limited. However, it may be because of our unique business case and how we use it that it's limiting for us."

"Amount of min. supplemental logging or storage needed is unknown and has to be figured out, so increases time to value."

"I would like to see the interface more graphical and easier to use."

"While we like the CDC feature, it has some limitations in terms of what we can do and how to configure what we need to do."

"The solution, in general, should be easier to use, with less need to perform workarounds within the system."

"In the future, I would appreciate a more user-friendly monitoring interface for easier management and troubleshooting."

"The support from Oracle could be improved; it is sometimes a challenge."

More Oracle GoldenGate cons

"The support is not very good. The team is not well-trained, and resolving a ticket can require several discussions."

"Deployment can be difficult, but I didn't test the latest version yet."

"Deployment can be difficult, but I didn't test the latest version yet. With Talend products, every release brings a lot of new features and functionalities. This is never a small adaptation, because the tool is maturing, but we need to test the latest version and to check its deployment capabilities."

"We are currently using version 7.3.1, but preferred the version before. The problem that we currently have is that Talend are releasing patches for Talend Studio every quarter. Our technical team has to be on top of these patches and constantly ensure everything is updated."

"Talend's architecture is complex to configure, especially due to the various components involved. It requires a more intricate setup."

"I would like to see better integration with other tools because every tool waiting for approval in terms of leveraging machine learning takes a long time."

"Support is something that drives me crazy these days."

"We encounter issues getting email notifications. They should provide enough information about the configuration process for email components."

More Talend Data Fabric cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing model should be improved to be more cost-effective for the end users."

"Oracle GoldenGate's cost is high."

"We have purchased corporate licensing to use Oracle GoldenGate."

"It is an expensive product."

"We pay a yearly licensing fee for Oracle GoldenGate, which is very expensive."

"The price of this solution is good."

"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."

"The return on investment would make it a worthwhile deal."

More Oracle GoldenGate pricing and cost advice

"There are no additional licensing fees when you scale"

"There are multiple subscriptions available with Talend, each with its own scope. Subscriptions depend on the number of users you have and how many remote engines you want to install."
