How It Works: Modular Architecture

TargetDatabase(s)

LAN / WAN / Internet(TCP/IP)

Route: Data is compressed, encrypted for routing to targets.

Capture: Committed changes are captured (and can be filtered) as they occur by reading the transaction logs.

Capture

Trail files: Stages and queues data for routing.

Source Trail

Delivery: Applies data with transaction integrity, transforming the data as required.

Common issues with data replication tools

• Long running jobs• Network outages• New tables• Validation of data • DDL• Logging

© DBAK 2010 10

Simple setup• Install software (download and unzip – done!)• Configure in the database – user to read/write data• Few system settings – typically no downtime

– alter database archivelog– alter database force logging– alter system set recyclebin=off scope=both– alter database add supplemental log data

• Create manager• Configure Extract/Replicat• Done!

How to start?

• RMAN backup/restore• Initial load (GG process)• Export/import

What do I get?

• Setup TNS to take advantage in case of failure• OS upgrade – no problem• DB upgrade – no problem• Platform switch – no problem• Auditing of data – no problem• DDL (create table) – no problem• Troubleshooting – very clear• Learning to ride a bike took some time with years of

pleasure – why not take the bridge!

What GoldenGate is not…

• A database backup (physical versus logical, i.e.; Veridata)

• Tied to the Oracle database• Tied to a specific OS• In need of much maintenance• Hard to control - operationally• Hard to master (tuning is much more difficult)• Overloaded with documentation (reminds me of

release 5 database days)

Can I?

• Use one database with many destinations?• Have one destination with from many sources?• Use one source for many purposes (i.e.

Failover/HA/Auditing)• Use a source database differently than I use the

target database?• Eliminate other tools (ETL – data guard – backups)?

What about the others?

• GoldenGate versus Streams• GoldenGate versus Data Guard• GoldenGate versus Shareplex®
