We performed a comparison between AWS Database Migration Service and Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We particularly like that this solution has the facility to integrate with all ETL tools."
"I am very impressed by the scalability of AWS Database Migration Service."
"The tools are very user-friendly."
"The product's initial setup phase was very easy."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"I like that I can focus on the logic and I don't have to worry about the administration stuff. AWS handles that for me."
"What I like about AWS Database Migration Service is that it's a good product that allows you to migrate terabytes of data. My team was able to migrate almost 16TB of data using AWS Database Migration Service. The solution works fine for my use case."
"Even if it does break down, it will automatically recover itself and resumes from where it stopped."
"GoldenGate's best features are the desktop security features."
"GoldenGate can aggregate various data types from different sources."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"This has significantly eased the process of migration from on-premise to cloud. Instead of configuring everything from the ground up, the Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service has made it seamless to build and render databases in cloud."
"Support could be more expedient. Right now I am waiting on support for an extension."
"The live duplication has a delay of two minutes, which can be an issue."
"What needs improvement in AWS Database Migration Service is that it lacks a log file validation feature. If the solution could provide more details about a particular transaction, that would be helpful. The stability of AWS Database Migration Service for online CDC records also needs to be improved."
"The server has limits on how many can connect to the database."
"As a solution, the better thing is if more platforms come with direct compatibility, like connecting to different data sources. The basic problem I faced the most was while transferring and reading data from Excel. So, one time, I found that all the components I had declared in my scripts were able to take it. And after some patching happens, it is not able to support that. Again, we need to update the version of Excel. So, it's not like a plug-in type place where you have done the solution and are confident that it will work. So, this is an area of improvement."
"This solution can offer more tweaks where the latency can be brought down to fifteen seconds."
"One area that AWS DMS can improve on is its conversion of data types. For example, in Oracle, you have a data type called RAW, but in PostgreSQL there is no such thing. Thus, AWS DMS doesn't know what type I want to use when migrating from Oracle to PostgreSQL, and when performing the migration, AWS DMS changed the RAW data type to the byte data type, which isn't what I wanted."
"There are a set of complexities and challenges when a user wants to integrate AWS products with Microsoft products."
"More technical documentation is needed, especially in terms of mapping and conversion of data, while integration would also be very helpful."
"Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service lacks AI. If AI gets introduced in Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service, it would be much easier to do analysis."
"The initial setup was a little complex, and we required support from Oracle to complete it."
"Oracle is always adding new features. I can't think of anything that's urgent currently."
