Performs real-time replication without data loss, but we cannot do much automation
The setup with the classic GoldenGate architecture was easy. Oracle has now moved to Microservices Architecture. It is a real pain. There are a lot of new things we have to learn. I rate the ease of setup of the classic architecture a seven out of ten. For Microservices, I rate the ease of setup a three out of ten. The deployment takes a couple of hours. We need one system administrator to deploy the tool. We need to maintain the tool. We are a team of four people. We need at least three people for maintenance. The time taken for maintenance depends on how big the environment is. We spend a lot of time on maintenance because our environment is big.

A cost-effective and easy-to-use tool that needs to introduce AI features
Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service is easy to use, and currently, it has become more easy to understand compared to its previous version. Opting for an on-premises tool is something for which we have to spend money, but Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service offers services in a very cost-effective manner. Features like getting the backup of a system or making any updates are areas that are much easier to handle. It is a tool that you can directly move from production to UAT, after which you can make your changes and move it back to production if everything is fine, and that too without any downtime.

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."
"Since the world is going towards open source, the solution's heterogeneous data migration feature is very useful."
"The most valuable features of Oracle GoldenGate are the schema application and performance."
"I am impressed with the tool's possibility of integrating different systems in a unified place."
"Data migration is the most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate."
"It is quite scalable."
"The CDC feature is interesting."
"It moves the data as you set it up, and it works. I am also very impressed with its stability and scalability. It is not super feature-rich, but the new releases have more functionality. It recently had more native integrations with Oracle Database. If you are using it against an Oracle database, it has a lot more functionality."
"We are heavily involved with GitHub for managing repositories, automatic deployments, and inner source projects."
"GoldenGate can aggregate various data types from different sources."
"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's best features are the desktop security features."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"The tool's connections are disconnected at times. The tool needs to integrate other databases."
"You cannot put everything in Golden Gate for the license and large models."
"The solution needs to improve its latency, monitoring and support."
"Lacks the ability to become a full-scale ETL tool."
"A clean and user-friendly graphical interface based on common design principles would be beneficial."
"Microservices Architecture is not user-friendly."
"Regarding improvements, the focus should be on addressing data quality issues and minimizing delays, particularly in Oracle databases. The technical support should be improved as well. Additionally, in terms of features, it would be great if the solution could support APIs. The support is not friendly. They don’t respond on time."
"GoldenGate is expensive. It's costly because this solution is unique in our market. The GoldenGate Cloud Service is cheaper than the on-premise solution."
"Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service lacks AI. If AI gets introduced in Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service, it would be much easier to do analysis."
"More technical documentation is needed, especially in terms of mapping and conversion of data, while integration would also be very helpful."
"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."
"Support could be improved. They lack knowledge."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is expensive."
"We have an enterprise license for it. It might be for three years or so. I'm not aware of any additional costs to the standard licensing fee."
"The tool needs to improve its pricing."
"The licensing model should be improved to be more cost-effective for the end users."
"We have purchased corporate licensing to use Oracle GoldenGate."
"The price of this solution is good."
"Oracle GoldenGate's cost is high."
"We pay a yearly licensing fee for Oracle GoldenGate, which is very expensive."
"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
