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."GoldenGate enables us to merge and transform data from various sources in real time. It's a powerful tool that can read and load most data sources."
"With Oracle GoldenGate, you can easily sync the tables and put them into the ODS database."
"One feature that stands out for me is the data center capability."
"Data migration is the most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate."
"They've recently improved the ease of implementation."
"The live application feature is most valuable. The solution is stable. I rate it a seven out of ten."
"It scales well. You can either have it working in with the databases, or you can move it outside. It's got the ability to parallelize up, so you can certainly extract and replay the data from your databases in parallel. So it does have horizontal scalability. That is probably one of its stronger features, the ability just to automatically parallelize the replay and playing of data to allow to scale to large volumes."
"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 debugging capabilities are great, particularly during data flow execution. You can look into the data and see what's going on in the pipeline."
"The scalability of SSIS is good."
"Like most Microsoft products, SSIS is user-friendly and easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of SSIS is that you can take data from other servers which are not MS SQL Server or Oracle."
"SSIS is an easy way to do data integration from various data sources. It doesn't matter whether it's a database, flat files, XML, or Web API. It can talk to the and join them all together."
"It's already very user-friendly and has a good dashboard."
"The simplicity of the solution is great. The solution also offers excellent integration."
"The technical support is very good."
"It would be great if Oracle added some enhanced features or more functionalities to Oracle GoldenGate."
"The solution needs to improve its latency, monitoring and support."
"The GoldenGate license is very costly."
"Lacks the ability to become a full-scale ETL tool."
"In the future, I would appreciate a more user-friendly monitoring interface for easier management and troubleshooting."
"We struggle with memory. It's limited. However, it may be because of our unique business case and how we use it that it's limiting for us."
"A clean and user-friendly graphical interface based on common design principles would be beneficial."
"GoldenGate is expensive. It's costly because this solution is unique in our market. The GoldenGate Cloud Service is cheaper than the on-premise solution."
"We would like the solution to be expanded so that it is available for other platforms than just Microsoft."
"SSIS sometimes hangs, and there are some problems with servers going down after they've been patched."
"We'd like more integration capabilities."
"Performance could be better."
"The solution should work on the GPU, graphical processing unit. There should also be piping integration available."
"Improving the login procedure would make our reporting easier on monitoring our ETL processes."
"It's a legacy tool, that is nearing the end of its useful life."
"SSIS should be made a little bit more intuitive and user-friendly because it needs an expert-level person to work on it."
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?
