Syncs data in real-time while managing transaction volumes
The most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate is its ability to sync data in real-time, which is crucial for me. I set it to a master-master pluggable database that serves as a container used from clones to provide test environments for various teams. This makes it very effective in managing high-volume transactions. The ability to sync data in real time is a key feature I rely on.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"CDC is the most valuable feature."
"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."
"For small databases, GoldenGate handles the migration well."
"This is a powerful solution provided by one of the most respected companies in the computer industry."
"The live application feature is most valuable. The solution is stable. I rate it a seven out of ten."
"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."
"The product is reliable for data integrity."
"With Oracle GoldenGate, you can easily sync the tables and put them into the ODS database."
"Precisely has the AI Act already implemented into the data catalog, which allows the integration of the European Artificial Intelligence Act into our processes."
"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."
 

Cons

"The solution needs to improve its latency, monitoring and support."
"Additional performance metrics should be added and visible in a dashboard, displayed in a detailed manner."
"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."
"For Oracle GoldenGate, customers face challenges with patching, the latest updates, and encountering bugs."
"I would like to see the interface more graphical and easier to use."
"Oracle GoldenGate's installation is not user-friendly, we had to read a lot of documentation for the setup and configuration."
"In the future, I would appreciate a more user-friendly monitoring interface for easier management and troubleshooting."
"Troubleshooting issues is not always the easiest. It should be easier to troubleshoot. Their support can also be improved. They don't read your problem statement and waste a lot of time. GoldenGate for big data is actually a separate license. It is sort of a separate product, but it might fall underneath your GoldenGate category. If we're talking about big data, its interaction with big data sources is poorly documented."
"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."
