Title of the Course: Oracle Golden Gate
Brief Description: This course covers Oracle GoldenGate, a real-time replication and data integration solution. Learners will understand how to configure GoldenGate for unidirectional, bidirectional, and cascading replication across heterogeneous environments. The course focuses on data synchronization, high availability, zero-downtime migrations, and ensuring data consistency across distributed systems.

What will the learner be able to do after this course?
After completing the Oracle GG course, the learner will be able to configure and manage real-time data replication between Oracle and non-Oracle databases using GoldenGate. For example, in a banking environment where live reporting is needed without impacting the production database, the learner can set up unidirectional replication from the primary OLTP system to a reporting database. This ensures real-time analytics with minimal performance overhead on the source system.
