Security and Other Considerations

Oracle GoldenGate fully supports virtual machine environments created with any virtualization software on any platform unless otherwise noted. When installing Oracle GoldenGate into a virtual machine environment, select a build that matches the database and the operating system of the virtual machine, not the host system.

Note:

Oracle customers with an active support contract and running supported versions of Oracle products (including Oracle GoldenGate) receive assistance from Oracle when running those products on VMware virtualized environments.

If Oracle identifies the underlying issue is not caused by Oracle’s products or is being run in a computing environment not supported by Oracle, Oracle will refer customers to VMware for further assistance and Oracle will provide assistance to VMware as applicable in resolving the issue.

This support policy does not affect Oracle or VMware licensing policies.
