Performing the initial load
Let's now step through the necessary tasks required to perform the initial load using the File to Replicat instantiation method. For small and simple data synchronization with no transformations, this is the preferred solution.
The example architecture
This example assumes that the target tables are truncated and are identical in structure to the source tables. The configuration includes the following tasks:
The Initial load: This specifies the Direct Load data synchronization
The one-way replication: Change data capture and delivery
The following system schematic diagram illustrates the architecture and naming convention used in this chapter's examples:
Direct Load instantiation
We will use the Direct Load instantiation method to perform our initial load from the Oracle 12c multitenant container database, starting with the initial data capture configuration.
Configuring initial data capture
The first step is to create the initial capture Extract parameter file for the...
