It achieves this by keeping your data synchronized between on-premises and cloud environments throughout the migration process.

This means you can switch providers with minimal or no downtime.

As a result, business continuity is ensured, and customer impact is minimized.

This helps businesses to collect and centralize data for reporting and analysis. Although not a complete ETL tool, GoldenGate provides some essential data transformation and filtering capabilities.

If you require more complex transformations, you may need to integrate GoldenGate with other ETL tools or scripts.
