SharePlex for Oracle

Simple, Affordable, ZeroIMPACT Oracle Data Replication

If you’ve tested Oracle GoldenGate and found it too complex and expensive, tried Streams only to discover it’s slow and nearing its EOL, or need more availability than Data Guard can provide, it’s time to check out a better solution.

SharePlex® for Oracle is a mature, high-performance, high-availability technology that offers a low-cost alternative to other Oracle replication tools. Unlike other solutions, SharePlex provides data compare and repair, in-flight data integrity, plus monitoring and alerting functionalities – all in one package.

This Oracle replication solution ensures business continuity while meeting your database operational goals. It provides a real-time copy of production data – without impacting your OLTP system’s performance and availability. 

Features

  • Ease of Use – Installs quickly and easily, so you can use everything required for data replication within 15 minutes – without ever requiring any add-ons or management packs. Provides educational resources in our online community to further optimize replication.
  • Data Accuracy and Integrity – Ensures target instances are accurate representations of the source database. Provides peer-to-peer monitoring and conflict detection and resolution (predefined and user defined). Uses compare-and-repair to reveal anomalies between source and target for rapid delta resolution – it’s the only tool on the market that fixes data anomalies (repair).
  • Improved Performance – Offloads process-intensive reports outside the main production database server. Replicates large volumes of changes without spikes in network activity. 
  • Migration Failback – Reverts quickly to the original system should something go wrong on the post-migration system.
  • Supports Oracle Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition – Supports mixed environments with differing source and target operating systems, database editions, and database versions, including 8i through 11g, clustered environments, and ASM, RAC, and Exadata (2).
  • Flexible Datatype Support – Supports LOBs, including SecureFile LOBs, UDTs, LONG, Varray, Oracle Advanced Compression, and Oracle Table Encryption.
  • Unrivaled Affordability – Offers all the functionality of GoldenGate – in one complete package – at a fraction of the price.
