We performed a comparison between AWS Glue and Oracle GoldenGate based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution's technical support is good. Whenever we raise a use case where we face an issue in our company, we get a response from the solution's technical team."
"The solution is serverless so it allows us to transform data while optimizing the cost and performance of Spark jobs."
"The most valuable feature for me is the visual interface of AWS Glue."
"It is AWS-integrated. There is end-to-end integration with the other AWS services. It is also user-friendly."
"The product has a valuable feature for data catalog."
"The facility to integrate with S3 and the possibility to use Jupyter Notebook inside the pipeline are the most valuable features."
"AWS Glue's best features are scalability and cloud-based features."
"The solution is highly user-friendly, and its features are easy to use. The new addition of AWS Glue Data Catalog is also very beneficial, making the tool even more helpful for its users."
"Since the world is going towards open source, the solution's heterogeneous data migration feature is very useful."
"Ease of installation, maintenance and powerful outputs and supporting Big Data and Cloud environment as well as OGGCS (Oracle Golden Gate Cloud Service)."
"Many of the features of Oracle GoldenGate are valuable. We use Oracle databases and this tool is from Oracle, making it have superior compatibility."
"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."
"This is a powerful solution provided by one of the most respected companies in the computer industry."
"Data migration is the most valuable feature of Oracle GoldenGate."
"You can use Oracle GoldenGate as a DR for your system."
"CDC is the most valuable feature."
"It fails to handle massive databases acquired from various sources."
"I would like to see stable libraries at the moment they are not there."
"The monitoring is not that good."
"There is a learning curve to this tool."
"I have encountered challenges with multi-region support."
"Currently, it supports only two languages in the background: Python and Scala. From our customization point of view, it would be helpful if it can also support Java in the background."
"The solution's visual ETL tool is of no use for actual implementation."
"The product is expensive for data streaming. This area needs improvement."
"The main problem of Oracle GoldenGate is that sometimes, the processes get abended. Data consistency is also challenging."
"Technical support for Oracle products needs to be more efficient (at least locally in Egypt)."
"The tool's connections are disconnected at times. The tool needs to integrate other databases."
"IBM CDC has one central control while Oracle GoldenGate has two controls. In IBM CDC we can do all things in frontend. The solution needs to incorporate a feature where we can connect it to a standby database."
"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."
"Regarding improvements, the focus should be on addressing data quality issues and minimizing delays, particularly in Oracle databases. The technical support should be improved as well. Additionally, in terms of features, it would be great if the solution could support APIs. The support is not friendly. They don’t respond on time."
"You cannot put everything in Golden Gate for the license and large models."
"There are a lot of bugs in the solution."
