Announcing Oracle GoldenGate Veridata 23c general availability. This release is available now for download.  

Oracle GoldenGate Veridata is a real-time, high-speed, data-comparison and repair solution that can run alongside online production databases and identify data and schema discrepancies for Oracle and non-Oracle databases.  It is an essential tool that ensures alignment across distributed operational databases, long running database migrations, and after planned and unplanned downtime. Veridata ensures business and administrative best practices.  It enables confidence and trust, reduces downtime, and enhances overall productivity.

It is also worth pointing out that Oracle GoldenGate Veridata has no dependency on Oracle GoldenGate. It can be used with or without GoldenGate.

This blog will highlight many of the new features compared to Veridata 12c.

                            New_Features

For our existing customers, Oracle GoldenGate Veridata 23c includes dozens of new features, but most striking will be a new and improved user interface, supported with streamlined workflows, new developer APIs, and a microservices architecture that is more performant and scalable.

Veridata 23c Highlights

  • New user experience
  • Removed dependency on Fusion Middleware
  • Embedded MySQL repository database
  • Simplified Installation
  • Enhanced Export/Import utility
  • REST APIs
  • Enhanced user management
  • Enhanced reporting

New User Experience

Veridata 23c streamlines setup and administration with improved user experiences for workflows, configuration, and management.

Removed dependency on Fusion Middleware (WebLogic)

In Veridata 23c, WebLogic has been replaced by an embedded lightweight Helidon application server. As a result, starting with Veridata 23c, there is no longer a dependency on Fusion Middleware (WebLogic), and the platform will be referred to as Veridata Server, rather than Veridata Web Server.

Cloud Ready

Embedded MySQL Repository Database

Veridata 23c introduces an embedded MySQL repository database, reducing the need for customers to maintain an additional repository database. Customers have the option to use the embedded MySQL database or any existing MySQL database as the Veridata 23c repository.  Oracle and SQL Server databases are no longer supported as repository options.

Embedded MySQL Database

Simplified Installation

In Veridata 23c, apart from configuring the Agent, the process is now reduced to just two steps: install GoldenGate Veridata and run VDTCA.sh to configure it.

Classic Installation

This is a significant simplification from Veridata 12c.

Enhanced Export/Import Utility

In Veridata 23c, Export and Import utilities are now integrated directly into the Veridata menu.

Export Import

REST APIs

Veridata 23c supports REST APIs for a variety of administrative and DevOp functions, including starting and stopping jobs, monitoring and managing job status, applying generated repair SQL, and other administrative tasks.  Users can administer Veridata 23c in a graphical user interface and developers can access in the Veridata command line interface (Vericom) using the new REST APIs. 

Enhanced User Management

In Veridata 23c, new roles have been added to enhance User Management. These roles can be combined into "User Groups" where authorization to services can be specified.

To streamline this process, starting with Veridata 23c, user management has been fully integrated into the Veridata UI, allowing customers to manage users directly within the Veridata interface.

Enhanced Reporting

In Veridata 23c, the enhanced reporting feature provides a more user-friendly report presentation within the UI, making it easier for users to understand.
