We are excited to announce the availability of Oracle GoldenGate Veridata 26c as a container image on the Oracle Container Registry (OCR).

This release brings a faster, more flexible way to deploy enterprise-grade data validation, making it easier than ever to ensure data consistency across heterogeneous environments. Whether running on premises, in the cloud, or on Kubernetes, Veridata 26c enables teams to validate data with confidence while embracing modern, cloud-native architectures.

What is GoldenGate Veridata?

Oracle GoldenGate Veridata is a high-performance data validation solution designed to ensure consistency between heterogeneous databases.

It plays a critical role in data integration architectures by:

  • Comparing source and target datasets with minimal impact on production systems
  • Performing parallel, high-speed data validation
  • Providing detailed discrepancy reporting
  • Enabling audit-ready verification of data movement

Why Containers?

With the introduction of the Veridata 26c container image, teams can:

  • Deploy Veridata quickly and consistently
  • Integrate with CI/CD pipelines
  • Run in cloud-native environments such as Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Kubernetes
  • Simplify testing and evaluation setups
  • Train team members quickly and isolated

The Oracle GoldenGate Veridata 26c container image is designed for modern deployment environments and can be run using container runtimes such as Podman. It is also fully compatible with Kubernetes, enabling scalable and orchestrated deployments in cloud-native architectures.

Where Veridata Adds Value

Oracle GoldenGate Veridata delivers value across key stages of data integration and replication by ensuring accuracy, reliability, and trust in your data.

  • Ensuring accuracy during initial data loads

  • Supporting audit and compliance requirements with verifiable results

Getting Started

Pull the latest image:

podman pull container-registry.oracle.com/goldengate/goldengate-veridata:latest

Run the container:

podman run -p 8831:8831 \
 --env-file vdt.env \
 container-registry.oracle.com/goldengate/goldengate-veridata:latest

Once the container is running, access the Veridata web interface at:

https://localhost:8831

Example of the vdt.env file:
