GoldenGate Transactional Data Management Platform: Solution and Technology Overview

GoldenGate Software is the market leader in Transactional Data Management (TDM) solutions that provide key business applications with continuous availability and real-time information. TDM provides guaranteed capture, routing, transformation, delivery, and verification of data transactions across heterogeneous environments in real time.

Businesses increasingly must be able to access, analyze, act on, and verify data transactions faster than ever, often in real time - and without system interruption or downtime. That must account for three major components: First, the exponential growth in transactional data volumes; second, the need to store, manage, and account for such data; and third, the need to work within heterogeneous, cross-platform, and distributed environments.

ETL, EAI, EII, and traditional replication and synchronization solutions are most commonly evaluated to address those needs, but have many well-documented shortcomings in key areas. Offering a better alternative to those approaches is GoldenGate's TDM technology - which allows high volumes of transactional data to be moved across different platforms to target databases, even bi-directionally, with sub-second latency and with accuracy, reliability, and integrity.

GoldenGate TDM solutions are used by Fortune 500 and other large enterprises in more than 2000 implementations in 35 countries, to build competitive capabilities for High Availability/Disaster Tolerance and Real-Time Data Integration.

This paper provides a detailed overview of GoldenGate's TDM solutions and technology platform.
