Overview:
Oracle Golden Gate provides very fast replication of data by
reading transaction logs and writing the changes to one or more target
databases in a homogeneous and heterogeneous environment. It is useful for High
Availability Architectures and especially for Data Warehouse and Decision
Support Systems. Thus, the variety of techniques and methods spreads from
unidirectional environments for query offloading/reporting to bidirectional or
Peer-to-Peer architectures in an active-active fashion.
