Oracle GoldenGate 12c Training: Fundamentals for Oracle

Our course focuses on Oracle-to-Oracle data replication and introduces the Oracle GoldenGate architecture as well as various product features. Students learn to install Oracle GoldenGate and prepare the source and target environment. The course teaches how to use the Oracle GoldenGate command line interface efficiently. Students configure Change Capture, Initial Load, and Change Delivery. They learn to extract trails and files, create parameter files, and to manage Oracle GoldenGate instances.

Learn To:

• Configure Change Delivery
• Install Oracle GoldenGate and prepare the environment
• Leverage the GGSCI commandline interface
• Configure Change Capture and configure Initial Load
• Extract trails and files
• Manage Oracle GoldenGate instances

Skills Gained:

• Use Oracle GoldenGate utilities
• Perform data transformation using Oracle GoldenGate
• Run and manage Oracle GoldenGate instances
• Describe Oracle GoldenGate solutions
• Describe Oracle GoldenGate architecture
• Install Oracle GoldenGate software on Linux
• Configure Oracle GoldenGate for Oracle-to-Oracle replication

Install GoldenGate Installation & Command Line

You'll learn to install Oracle GoldenGate and prepare the source and target environments. Enrolling in this course teaches you how to use the Oracle GoldenGate command line interface (GGSCI) efficiently.

Learn GoldenGate Configuration Processes

You'll also develop the knowledge and skills to configure Change Capture (Extract), Change Delivery (Replicat) and Initial Load. You'll learn how to extract trails and files using Data Pump, create parameter files and manage Oracle GoldenGate instances.

Uni- and Bi-Directional Replication

Capture of both DML and DDL will be configured for both uni- and bi-directional replication with collision detection.

Explore New Features in 12c

Features new to 12c, such as Integrated Apply and Wallet, are highlighted along the way. This course is based on Oracle GoldenGate version 12.1.2. Please note that the labs are done in Linux.
