We performed a comparison between Oracle GoldenGate and SSIS based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."For small databases, GoldenGate handles the migration well."
"You can use Oracle GoldenGate as a DR for your system."
"The most valuable feature is data replication capability."
"The solution is useful for data transformation."
"When we are replicating data between similar databases then it is straightforward."
"It's very simple to configure, it's very simple to implement. In addition, the ability it has to capture data and transmit it with incredible speed is better than any of the product out there. It's extremely powerful."
"The product is reliable for data integrity."
"Oracle GoldenGate helps to select and target specific tables for replication. Any changes or operations on those tables are immediately reflected in the source and target environments."
"In SSIS, the scope is not only to handle ETL challenges, but it will allow us to do so many other tasks, such as DBA activities, scripting, calling any .exe or scripts, etc."
"It's a competent product."
"SSIS is easy to use."
"It is easy to set up the solution."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is simple to use and it offers a flexible custom script task."
"We like that this solution includes a developer edition, free of charge, to allow for training."
"The most valuable feature of SSIS is that it can handle real complex transformations."
"The interface is very user-friendly."
"The main problem of Oracle GoldenGate is that sometimes, the processes get abended. Data consistency is also challenging."
"The product lacks some features and it's expensive."
"It would be better for Oracle Golden Gate Studio GUI to include other licensed products (i.e. Veridata or others)."
"The solution's performance needs improvement."
"Oracle GoldenGate can enhance its functionality by enabling the merging of multiple migrations into one."
"Microservices Architecture is not user-friendly."
"A clean and user-friendly graphical interface based on common design principles would be beneficial."
"There are a lot of bugs in the solution."
"This solution needs full support for real-time processing."
"Future releases should improve the data lineage, as it currently is not good."
"At one point, we did have to purchase an add-on."
"Improving the login procedure would make our reporting easier on monitoring our ETL processes."
"It would be nice if you could run SSIS on other environments besides Windows."
"I would like to see better integration with Power BI."
"The creation of the measure in the DAC's model could be improved."
"I have a tool called ZappySys. I need that tool to cut down on the complexity of SSIS. That tool really helps with a quick turnaround. I can do things quickly, and I can do things accurately. I can get better reporting on errors."
Oracle GoldenGate is ranked 6th in Data Integration with 47 reviews while SSIS is ranked 2nd in Data Integration with 69 reviews. Oracle GoldenGate is rated 8.2, while SSIS is rated 7.6. The top reviewer of Oracle GoldenGate writes "Performs real-time replication without data loss, but we cannot do much automation". On the other hand, the top reviewer of SSIS writes "Maintaining the solution and contacting its support team is easy". Oracle GoldenGate is most compared with AWS Database Migration Service, Qlik Replicate, Quest SharePlex, Azure Data Factory and AWS Glue, whereas SSIS is most compared with Informatica PowerCenter, Talend Open Studio, IBM InfoSphere DataStage, Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) and SnapLogic.

There are two products I know about
* TimeXtender : Microsoft based, Transformation logic is quiet good and can easily be extended with T-SQL , Has a semantic layer that generates metat data for cubes . price approx 40K$, works with tables
. Attunity (Bought by Qlik) : technology agnostic , nice web interface , expensive > 100K€. Works with transaction logs
There are many other pure ETL tools
* ERWIN has a nice one ,
Depends upon the technologies being used. If you're using Oracle for both OLTP and OLAP then you'll get a lot of value from an Oracle solution.
The other question is how up to date do you want your OLAP DB to be? Goldengate is a good answer if you're looking to minimize latency, but it can be expensive. ODI is less expensive but better suited to bulkier data sets. If an Oracle product wasn't the option I'd probably consider something like Informatica.

As someone mentioned, if you're purely Oracle shop and staying that way then there's value with prioritizing Oracle tools. However, let me contrast that with this caveat...
Consider expectations for tool and vendor longevity. Oracle has a long history of retiring and/or replacing tools leaving customers in the cold with prior versions/tools (I've been burned multiple times by Oracle product retirements or replacements including OWB, Oracle Designer2k, Oracle Express, Oracle OEDW, their purchase of Sagent ETL which as later abandoned).
But I would also consider these questions and relative prioritization:
What is your organization's plans for moving to other database technologies?
Where is your org going with on-prem versus cloud solutions? How important are PaaS versus IaaS solutions?
Where is your current staff's expertise?
Prioritize mature over immature tools.
How many sources do you have? What are their technologies and does the integration tool support them?
Is it just moving data from a single ERP such as Oracle EBS to Olap? When you say Olap what do you mean by that? Are you talking Oracle Olap product or something else? That makes a really big difference of course - if your ETL tool doesn't support your source(s) and target(s) then it shouldn't be considered.
Given the industry's trajectory, I myself would highly prioritize PaaS solutions over others.
What is the OLAP that you are using? Hosted in Cloud or on-premise?
The target DB should have its tool to extract data.
Pentaho is a really nice tool if opensource is the only option.
Please think about issues such as upgrade and disaster in the future. These operations are very easy in Pentaho.
I can only suggest one thing for replication and that is Qlik. (ex-Attunity).
Hi Karoly, Thanks for your input. community: forums.pentaho.com is not allowing new registrations for new users. I guess they accept queries from customers only and not from any one. Do you know any other forum, community, SMEs contacts who can help on queries?
