Preface

In recent years, data replication has been an important part of many database systems. The growing trend for data integration is due to today's demand for real-time access and real-time information. GoldenGate is Oracle's strategic data synchronization solution that has become integrated with many sister products to address the most demanding business requirements. Until now, very little has been written about the end-to-end implementation of GoldenGate in a production enterprise-wide environment, irrespective of whether it is the traditional point-to-point replication or on-premise to cloud, performance, scalability, data integrity, and security, which is always paramount.

Welcome to Oracle GoldenGate 12c Implementer's Guide, a comprehensive book that delivers a practical approach in a clear and concise style. Whether you are new to GoldenGate or an advanced user, this book helps you get up to speed quickly. Based on the author's own experience, this long-awaited second edition book has all the information that is required to install, design, configure, and tune data integration solutions suited to every environment. Expert users can dive into key topic areas, such as performance tuning or troubleshooting, and seek desired solutions from the numerous tips and tricks, whereas novice users can go through the early installation and configuration chapters, later progressing to the advanced chapters.

This book helps you master data integration techniques to empower your organizations' readiness to migrate to cloud technologies quickly and easily. Covering both noncontainer and multitenant container database architecture, the book will appeal to the Oracle 11g and 12c database administrator, implementing GoldenGate for the most demanding business requirements.

This book is more than an implementation guide. It offers detailed real-life examples, encouraging additional thought and discussion that goes beyond the manual.
