We are excited to announce that Oracle GoldenGate Stream Analytics 26ai is now available as part of the OCI GoldenGate managed cloud service, bringing powerful real-time analytics capabilities to a fully managed, cloud-native environment.
Earlier this year, the 26ai release became generally available for user-managed deployments, introducing a new generation of AI-driven streaming analytics innovations. Now, with its availability in OCI GoldenGate, organizations can take advantage of these advanced capabilities without the overhead of managing infrastructure, accelerating time to value while simplifying operations.
What’s New in GoldenGate Stream Analytics 26ai
GoldenGate Stream Analytics 26ai introduces a new generation of capabilities designed to make it easier and more intuitive to incorporate AI and machine learning into real-time streaming pipelines. Below is a summary of the key enhancements:
Native Data Streams Integration
Stream Analytics 26ai introduces direct integration with the GoldenGate 26ai Data Streams feature, an AsyncAPI-based interface for consuming change events. This allows pipelines to consume GoldenGate events directly, eliminating the need for a target-side GoldenGate deployment or intermediary messaging systems like Kafka.
Users can create new data streams directly within the Stream Analytics console or connect to existing ones. Pipelines now support both single-table and multi-table inputs, enabling the processing of diverse data shapes within a single pipeline. This flexibility simplifies the implementation of modern data fabric architectures.
Modernized User Interface
The user interface has been fully refreshed using Oracle’s Redwood design system, delivering a modern, intuitive, and visually consistent experience. Built on the latest UI frameworks, the enhanced low-code environment improves usability and streamlines pipeline development for both new and experienced users.
AI Agent Pattern with LLM Processing
A new AI Agent pattern enables no-code integration with the OCI Generative AI Agent service. These agents leverage large language models (LLMs), retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and custom tools to process streaming events using natural language prompts.
This allows pipelines to intelligently interpret and act on incoming data. For example, an AI agent can analyze event content, enrich it with contextual knowledge from documents or databases, and make real-time decisions based on that combined intelligence.
Vector Embeddings and Similarity Search
GoldenGate Stream Analytics 26ai introduces built-in support for creating and using vector embeddings within streaming pipelines. Pipelines can generate embeddings using ONNX models and store them in vector columns in Oracle AI Database 26ai.
This enables advanced AI use cases such as similarity search, where incoming events can be compared against existing data based on vector distance. For instance, organizations can match new support cases with similar historical issues to accelerate resolution and improve customer experience.
AutoML Integration with Oracle AI Database
Stream Analytics 26ai integrates with Oracle Machine Learning (OML) and AutoML capabilities in Oracle AI Database 26ai, enabling users to apply predictive models directly within streaming pipelines.
Even users without deep data science expertise can build, train, and deploy machine learning models using AutoML. These models can then be applied in real time for tasks such as fraud detection, predictive maintenance, and demand forecasting, bringing advanced analytics directly into the flow of streaming data.
Why Run Stream Analytics in OCI GoldenGate?
While the 26ai release brings powerful new capabilities, running it within OCI GoldenGate unlocks additional advantages that simplify operations and enhance reliability.
Fully Managed Service
OCI GoldenGate eliminates the need to provision, configure, and maintain infrastructure. Key benefits include:
- Automatic provisioning and scaling
- Built-in patching and upgrades
- Reduced operational overhead
Teams can focus on building streaming applications instead of managing systems.
Unified Data Integration Platform
OCI GoldenGate provides a single platform for:
- Real-time data ingestion and replication
- Stream processing and analytics
- End-to-end data pipeline orchestration
This tight integration reduces complexity and enables seamless data movement from source to insight.
Elastic Scalability
OCI GoldenGate dynamically scales to meet workload demands, ensuring consistent performance even as data volumes grow. This elasticity is especially valuable for:
- Bursty event streams
- Seasonal or unpredictable workloads
- Large-scale IoT and event-driven architectures
Enterprise-Grade Security and Reliability
Running within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provides:
- Built-in security controls and compliance
- High availability and fault tolerance
- Integration with OCI identity and access management
Organizations can confidently run mission-critical streaming workloads in production.
Faster Time to Value
By combining the advanced capabilities of GoldenGate Stream Analytics 26ai with the simplicity of a managed service, teams can:
- Deploy streaming applications faster
- Reduce setup and configuration time
- Accelerate innovation with real-time data
