9 Replicate Data

Oracle GoldenGate for Distributed Applications and Analytics (GG for DAA) supports specific configurations - the handlers (which are compatible with clearly defined software versions) for replicating data.

Handlers in GG for DAA are components that manage the data flow between various sources and targets. They are responsible for reading data from sources such as databases, log files, or message queues, and writing the data to a wide range of target systems. GG for DAA uses handlers to perform various tasks, such as data ingestion, data transformation, and data integration. Handlers are essential for enabling real-time data movement and data replication across technologies.

Note:

GG for DAA includes utility scripts called dependency downloader. The dependency downloader helps you to download required client libraries. The depedendency downloader is located at GG_HOME/opt/DependencyDownloader.

To be able to use dependency downloader, please install JDK in your instance and set the following environment variables:
echo $JAVA_HOME should point to GG_Home/jdk
echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH should point GG_HOME/jdk/lib/server
echo $PATH should include GG_HOME/jdk/bin
