We performed a comparison between Azure Data Factory and Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."I think it makes it very easy to understand what data flow is and so on. You can leverage the user interface to do the different data flows, and it's great. I like it a lot."
"Data Factory's best features are simplicity and flexibility."
"I like that it's a monolithic data platform. This is why we propose these solutions."
"I enjoy the ease of use for the backend JSON generator, the deployment solution, and the template management."
"Data Flow and Databricks are going to be extremely valuable services, allowing data solutions to scale as the business grows and new data sources are added."
"It is very modular. It works well. We've used Data Factory and then made calls to libraries outside of Data Factory to do things that it wasn't optimized to do, and it worked really well. It is obviously proprietary in regards to Microsoft created it, but it is pretty easy and direct to bring in outside capabilities into Data Factory."
"I can do everything I want with SSIS and Azure Data Factory."
"Data Factory itself is great. It's pretty straightforward. You can easily add sources, join and lookup information, etc. The ease of use is pretty good."
"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."
"GoldenGate can aggregate various data types from different sources."
"GoldenGate's best features are the desktop security features."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"There aren't many third-party extensions or plugins available in the solution."
"They require more detailed error reporting, data normalization tools, easier connectivity to other services, more data services, and greater compatibility with other commonly used schemas."
"The setup and configuration process could be simplified."
"Some of the optimization techniques are not scalable."
"Azure Data Factory should be cheaper to move data to a data center abroad for calamities in case of disasters."
"The solution can be improved by decreasing the warmup time which currently can take up to five minutes."
"Data Factory could be improved by eliminating the need for a physical data area. We have to extract data using Data Factory, then create a staging database for it with Azure SQL, which is very, very expensive. Another improvement would be lowering the licensing cost."
"For some of the data, there were some issues with data mapping. Some of the error messages were a little bit foggy. There could be more of a quick start guide or some inline examples. The documentation could be better."
"The initial setup was a little complex, and we required support from Oracle to complete it."
"Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service lacks AI. If AI gets introduced in Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service, it would be much easier to do analysis."
"Oracle is always adding new features. I can't think of anything that's urgent currently."
"More technical documentation is needed, especially in terms of mapping and conversion of data, while integration would also be very helpful."
