I think it's a great product. We apply Oracle GoldenGate to several use cases in our organization. 1. Business Continuity Planning, 2. Query Offloading through data replication to a reporting instance of our data, 3. looking into data transformations to help support various queries for different teams within the business.

GoldenGate - Ideal Synchronization for Low/Moderate Data Complexity

Oracle [GoldenGate] is well suited for data replication where real-time results are important, such as data reporting. There is potential to have the users query the replicated database, which can have separate resources set up to be compressed or using lower performing or cheaper resources.

As mentioned, columns with LOBs can become a headache, as they will need to be synchronized in their own group many times. Tables containing data in CHAR, VARCHAR, NUMBER, DATE, or other non-LOB columns, however, are able to be replicated quite seamlessly.

[Oracle GoldenGate] does provide a way to review errors that are encountered, so that is a positive if their is scrutiny around data integrity.

Oracle GoldenGate is very handy to deal with Data Center to Data Center DB copy (near real time), uni-directional or bi-directional, it is also suitable to copy the data from production environment to the testing/dev environments. If you also have to deal with the problem of decoupling the reporting purposed read from the busy transaction-intensive operational DB instance, OGG will be also a good candidate. However Oracle GoldenGate is like the other Oracle products, quite expensive, so the small/medium company may not be able to afford the cost.

GoldenGate helps us to keep a replica of the database consistent, in real time, which is used for reportage in read only mode, In this way we manage to reduce the load of the production database, redirecting all the generation of reports to the contingency site, leaving all the processing capacity available for the provision of services of the productive applications. We are also replicating data from a source database to a target database. GoldenGate works well for that purpose.

An OK tool for data replication--not great but not completely terrible

Oracle database data replication is very straightforward but still a bit too complicated to configure (versus an out-of-the-box, easy-to-configure data replication tool). Oracle GoldenGate is advertised as being able to replicate data between different database products (vendors) as well as different versions of the space database product (so Oracle 11g replicated to Oracle 12c). Given that it's complicated to configure for Oracle database to Oracle database (same version), I'm sure any of the other advertised configurations are more complicated. These complexities make Oracle GoldenGate a difficult sell internally. It needs to be more straightforward and out of the box to configure and utilize.

Oracle GoldenGate is well-suited for Enterprise-level companies which require mission-critical security and performance along with their real-time data replication needs. Oracle GoldenGate integrates well with other Oracle products as well such as: Oracle Fusion Middleware, Oracle Veridata, Oracle XStream, and Oracle Active Guard. If you plan to use Oracle's products with your data replication workflow, Oracle GoldenGate is the way to go.

The product works well in normal circumstances but fails to deliver when some flexablity is required. For example when syncing source to target it works really well, but when you reverse the process the system can be a bit buggy.

Oracle GoldenGate - The best logical replication tool in the market.

Oracle GoldenGate is extremely useful for heterogenous replication and active-active replications.
I have been able to replicate data between Oracle and targets such as TeraData, JMS queue, TIBCO EMS, Kafka, Hbase and Cassandra very easily. GoldenGate is one of the best logical replication product available in the market today, and with the latest innovations, it is only getting better.

Though we were able to set it up, when the source is a DataWarehouse with a lot of large transactions and heavy redo generation in a short amount of time, GoldenGate is not the best product of choice.

Very well suited for Oracle database bi-directional replications. Excellent tool for dumping Oracle data to other sources like NoSQL, XML, HDFs etc. Setting up replication is easy and quick. Within no time we can start dumping data to other sources. Also CDR rules are easy to configure in active-active replication. It is very useful in case of zero downtime migration where DB size is huge, also we can utilize it in database upgrades.

GoldenGate is easy to integrate and manage with a low learning curve and administrative efforts. We had a platform requirement where we had to basically decide to go with an application that is supporting bidirectional replication or we do go through available tools in the market. Since we had some other available vendor who supports this feature we found the data quality validation a unique feature and went with this tool.
