Overall Satisfaction with Astera Centerprise
We leverage the tool to perform ETL (Extraction, Transforming and Loading) of new customer data into our application's database. The problem it solved is providing the visibility to issues with moving the data from a legacy system database into our system. Plus, we can reuse the projects when implementing future customers from the same legacy system. Having this feature tremendously reduces the time and technical skills required to move the data.
Pros
- Option to copy an entire project to reuse it for similar but new situations
- Option to "write SQL" when it really is simply easier
- Ability to Preview the data before actually pushing it
- Ability to implement rules or honor database-level rules
- Ability to quickly get exports of data snippets for 3rd party review of the data
Cons
- The ability to use AI to "connect" the data through
- The ability to have teams working on the same project at the same time
- Having more "undo" options
- Visual flows
- Option to work in SQL
- Preview before pushing the Go button
- We needed to invest a lot of time upfront to create the first several projects plus the learning curve.
- Once we were able to reuse a previously created project, we were able to complete a data conversion in 5 to 30% of the original time before using Centerprise.
- Onboarding a new data specialist with pre-existing projects went tremendously better than simply teaching them "manual" methods of data transfer
GoldenGate is not really designed for "interactive reusasbility" situations. Centerprise is perfect for the concept of reusing previous work for new projects! Plus, the cost difference is so huge!
