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."
"This solution has a well-known procedure for troubleshooting and tuning the performance, providing for smooth operation."
"The product's microservice architecture is scalable."
"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."
"The live application feature is most valuable. The solution is stable. I rate it a seven out of ten."
"Oracle GoldenGate features work fine, which is what I like about it. I also like that it's scalable, easy to set up, and has good technical support."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate is its cost-effectiveness compared to other solutions like Oracle Data Guard, especially for Oracle-to-non-Oracle replication scenarios."
"There are many good features in this solution including the data fields, database integration, support for SQL views, and the lookups for matching information."
"I have used most of the standard SQL features, but the ones that stand out are the Data Flows and Bulk Import."
"The data reader is the most valuable feature."
"Like most Microsoft products, SSIS is user-friendly and easy to use."
"The setup was easy. All Microsoft products are easy to set up."
"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."
"Its compatibility with Microsoft products has been very valuable to our company. It fits well within the architecture."
"Overall, it's a good product."
"I find the user interface to be difficult for non-technical people."
"It would be great if Oracle added some enhanced features or more functionalities to Oracle GoldenGate."
"What needs improvement in Oracle GoldenGate is the support. Another feature that needs to be improved in the solution is its GUI. It would be useful for programmers or users to be able to work from the GUI, not just from the command line. Simplifying how Oracle GoldenGate is used would also make the solution better."
"I would like to see the interface more graphical and easier to use."
"Oracle GoldenGate can enhance its functionality by enabling the merging of multiple migrations into one."
"The solution's licensing price is very expensive and could be made more competitive."
"The solution needs to improve its latency, monitoring and support."
"A clean and user-friendly graphical interface based on common design principles would be beneficial."
"SSIS sometimes hangs, and there are some problems with servers going down after they've been patched."
"In terms of its performance, it could be better. That could be something that would be easy and welcomed as an upgrade."
"We'd like more integration capabilities."
"At one point, we did have to purchase an add-on."
"I would like to see more standard components out of the box, such as SFTP, and Data Compression components."
"I would also like to see full integration with our BI because then our full load of data will be available in our organization. They should incorporate an ATL process."
"The solution should work on the GPU, graphical processing unit. There should also be piping integration available."
"Microsoft should offer an on-premises support warranty for those using that deployment. They seem to be withdrawing from on-premises options."
Oracle GoldenGate is ranked 6th in Data Integration with 48 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 JumpMind SymmetricDS, whereas SSIS is most compared with Informatica PowerCenter, Talend Open Studio, IBM InfoSphere DataStage, Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) and Informatica Cloud Data Integration.

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?
