An Overview of Goldengate Replication: Muhammad Qasim

The document provides an overview of GoldenGate replication. It discusses the key components of GoldenGate - extract, replicat, and data pump utilities which access trail files containing database change information. The extract process mines database redo logs and writes changes to trail files. The replicat process reads from trail files and applies changes to target databases. A demo environment with sources and target databases on different operating systems is described and two replication scenarios are outlined - a one-to-one configuration using direct load and another using file-to-replicate.

INTRODUCTION

GoldenGate Introduction

The GoldenGate replication utility provides flexible and


powerful framework, for automatic propagation of data
changes

This presentation will provide an overview of GoldenGate


replication; and it will display some examples of actually
using GoldenGate.

In order to provide examples of using GoldenGate, a


DEMO environment, which uses GoldenGate, has been
set up.

Overview of GoldenGate Replication


GoldenGate replication consists of three basic utilities:
extract,replicat and data pump. In addition all three of these
utilities access trail files, which are flat files that contain formatted
GoldenGate data.
An extract group mines a databases redo logs; and writes
information about the changes it find into trail files. Extract is
functionally similar to the Streams capture process.
A replicat group reads information from trail files; and then writes
those changes into database tables. Replicat is functionally similar to
the Streams apply process.
A data pump group copies information between trail files. Data is
functionally similar to Streams propagate process.

Overview of the DEMO


We have two 11g databases deployed in different environments.

Source:
Target:

Windows XP 32bit 11g release 2


Linux x86
32bit 11g release 2

We will demonstrate two scenarios where data will be replicated from source to
target.

Demonstration Scenarios

Scenario 1: One-to-One Configuration using Direct Load Method

In this configuration, one Extract group sends captured data over


TCP/IP to a trail on the target system, where it is stored until
processed by one Replicat group.

Scenario 2: One-to-One Configuration using File to Replicate

This method uses an Extract process to extract source data into


flat files or trails on the target system.

The initial load Replicat task then moves the data from
the intermediate file to the target database.
