We performed a comparison between Oracle GoldenGate and Talend Data Management Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is useful for data transformation."
"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."
"You can use Oracle GoldenGate as a DR for your system."
"The most valuable feature is data replication capability."
"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."
"When we are replicating data between similar databases then it is straightforward."
"The most valuable features of Oracle GoldenGate are the schema application and performance."
"I like that the product transforms data and provides real-time applications."
"The solution can run on any machine and that is a big advantage."
"The most valuable features of the Talend Data Management Platform are the components."
"We can develop our own code if we do not see the functionality we need."
"I like the way that you can use the context variables, and how you can work those context variables to give you values and settings for every development environment, such as PROD, TEST, and DEV."
"The availability of connectors is great."
"The basic tools are easy to pick up and understand."
"The most valuable feature is integration."
"I think Talend is one of the easiest tools for faster implementation compared to other tools."
"Additional performance metrics should be added and visible in a dashboard, displayed in a detailed manner."
"The front-end management isn't very good."
"The product lacks some features and it's expensive."
"It would be better for Oracle Golden Gate Studio GUI to include other licensed products (i.e. Veridata or others)."
"The problem with GoldenGate is it is very complex to use. You need heavyweight skills to use it."
"It's stable but you have to know how to maintain it. That's why it's not 10 out of 10 for me. There are some bugs, there are some issues here and there. All of a sudden your process is not working and you have to figure out why, and sometimes it's not so clear."
"I would like to see the interface more graphical and easier to use."
"The GoldenGate license is very costly."
"The solution's memory sometimes bottlenecks and that can be challenging."
"We'd like to see more connectors it the future."
"The sales and market department could improve the Talend Data Management Platform."
"The documentation from version to version could be more accurate."
"They lack in memory capacity."
"Once you get past the basic tools, it gets pretty complicated."
"Including either XML or JSON in the next release would definitely be a good transformation. I'm not sure if Talend has that feature, but it's one of those requirements that we are working around and have to do some parsing of XML so this could make it easier."
"The product must enhance the data quality."

There are two products I know about
* TimeXtender : Microsoft based, Transformation logic is quiet good and can easily be extended with T-SQL , Has a semantic layer that generates metat data for cubes . price approx 40K$, works with tables
. Attunity (Bought by Qlik) : technology agnostic , nice web interface , expensive > 100K€. Works with transaction logs
There are many other pure ETL tools
* ERWIN has a nice one ,
Depends upon the technologies being used. If you're using Oracle for both OLTP and OLAP then you'll get a lot of value from an Oracle solution.
The other question is how up to date do you want your OLAP DB to be? Goldengate is a good answer if you're looking to minimize latency, but it can be expensive. ODI is less expensive but better suited to bulkier data sets. If an Oracle product wasn't the option I'd probably consider something like Informatica.

As someone mentioned, if you're purely Oracle shop and staying that way then there's value with prioritizing Oracle tools. However, let me contrast that with this caveat...
Consider expectations for tool and vendor longevity. Oracle has a long history of retiring and/or replacing tools leaving customers in the cold with prior versions/tools (I've been burned multiple times by Oracle product retirements or replacements including OWB, Oracle Designer2k, Oracle Express, Oracle OEDW, their purchase of Sagent ETL which as later abandoned).
But I would also consider these questions and relative prioritization:
What is your organization's plans for moving to other database technologies?
Where is your org going with on-prem versus cloud solutions? How important are PaaS versus IaaS solutions?
Where is your current staff's expertise?
Prioritize mature over immature tools.
How many sources do you have? What are their technologies and does the integration tool support them?
Is it just moving data from a single ERP such as Oracle EBS to Olap? When you say Olap what do you mean by that? Are you talking Oracle Olap product or something else? That makes a really big difference of course - if your ETL tool doesn't support your source(s) and target(s) then it shouldn't be considered.
Given the industry's trajectory, I myself would highly prioritize PaaS solutions over others.
What is the OLAP that you are using? Hosted in Cloud or on-premise?
The target DB should have its tool to extract data.
Pentaho is a really nice tool if opensource is the only option.
Please think about issues such as upgrade and disaster in the future. These operations are very easy in Pentaho.
I can only suggest one thing for replication and that is Qlik. (ex-Attunity).
Hi Karoly, Thanks for your input. community: forums.pentaho.com is not allowing new registrations for new users. I guess they accept queries from customers only and not from any one. Do you know any other forum, community, SMEs contacts who can help on queries?
