How It Works: Modular Architecture

SourceDatabase(s)

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.

Why GoldenGate?

• Fast• Efficient• Easy to troubleshoot• Easy to implement• Truly the best in the business

© DBAK 2010 9

Common Issues

• 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 – no downtime – typically

• 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

© DBAK 2010 12

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) (Veridata)

• Tied to Oracle• Tied to a specific OS• In need of much maintenance• Hard to operationally control• Hard to master (tuning is much more difficult)• Documentation overloaded (reminds me of release 5

database days)

© DBAK 2010 14

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 differently than the target?• Eliminate other tools (ETL – data guard – backups)?

What about the others?

• GoldenGate versus Streams• GoldenGate versus Data Guard• GoldenGate versus SharePlex

© DBAK 2010 16

Is Oracle Committed?• Best-in-class leader in real-time data solutions• Complements existing Oracle products

– Continuous Availability for heterogeneous systems– Real-time data access for Reporting– Real-time data for BI, EPM, Exadata– Zero-downtime migrations / upgrades to Oracle Database and

Applications

• Over 400 customers with 4,000+ implementations across Fortune 500 companies: Financial Services, Communications, Healthcare, Public Sector, Retail & Utilities industries– Top 3 of 5 largest commercial banks – Top 3 of 3 busiest ATM networks– Top 7 of 10 financial data services companies– Top 4 of 5 telecommunications providers– Top 3 of 5 largest food & drug stores

Where to use?

• Low RTO/RPO• Want to maximize usage of D/R• Need to offload without complexity• Have a need for the MAA• Want to try new performance techniques without a

solid commitment• Want to try upgrades to see what occurs

© DBAK 2010 18

What is so different?

• Non-intrusive• Low impact• Sub-second latency• Open/Heterogeneous• Modular access• Maintains transactional integrity• Not HA – not DR – not CA – it is all three

© DBAK 2010 19

Am I on an Island?

• Often used with Standby• Often used with Other ETL tools• Often used with RMAN/Tape backups• Often used with storage solutions• The nice kid that places well with others• If it is an island – then – it is one with a big bridge –

as – it closes the gaps that used to separate all
