Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) vs Oracle Golden Gate

We are about to start a new data warehouse project, which will require a data integration product and have the following questions:
- ODI provides near real-time data warehousing support: - What is the difference between ODI's near-realtime data warehousing features and Oracle Golden Gate's real-time data integration?
- How does Oracle Golden Gate achieve Real-time Data Integration? (What kind of non-invasive techniquire/procedures/processes does it use to achieve Real-time Data Integration?
- Obviously with Oracle Golden Gate being the superior Data Integration product, what is the future of ODI?
- Is there any product convergence planned for ODI and Oracle Golden Gate by Oracle corp. in the near/far future?
- Most importantly, what product should we use to implement the new project: ODI or Oracle Golden Gate?
- What is the easier product to learn/implement: ODI or Oracle Golden Gate?
Others, please feel free to add to the above questions/concerns.
Thanks for all your help.

Hi,
I tried to install the essbase driver adapter on ODI, but I can't connect to Essbase using topology manager. Anyone know about essbase drivers for ODI. I used ODI 10.1.3.4.
Thanks all.

Contacting OTN admins to get an older release of Oracle Data Integrator

Hello everyone,
We developed a product using Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) 10.1.3.3.1 but the current release is 10.1.3.4 and the older release cannot be found anywhere (OTN /SAC). So, i am trying to reach out to OTN admins to get access of ODI 10.1.3.3.1 so that we could ship that to customers. Does someone know how can i reach them or better yet if an OTN admin reads this thread, could you please respond?
Thanks,
Srini.

You would need to contact the product manager about that.

ODI-1241: Oracle Data Integrator tool execution fails.

Hi
I'm getting the following error while running the OdiOSCommand command. I'm running dos2unix command to convert text files from dos to unix format.
Application tier is on a different host to the ODI setup. Getting the following error. Please help resolve this issue.
Error : ODI-1226: Step OdiOSCommand fails after 1 attempt(s).

Oracle Data Integrator 11.1.1.5 Work Schema - List of Privileges

Hi All,
Oracle Data Integrator 11.1.1.5.
Extracting data from Oracle DB for Oracle EBS 12.1.3.
Customer created read-only schema (XXAPPS) to extract the data from EBS.
For ODI Work schema we now created one schema 'XBOL_ODI_TEMP' on the source DB. We are now looking for appropriate privileges that needs to be granted to XXAPPS and 'XBOL_ODI_TEMP' so that we won’t face the any error messageS related to permissions when we run ODI scenario?
We are now facing the error message : ODI-1227: Task SrcSet0 (Loading) fails on the source ORACLE connection VTB_ORACLE_EBS_1213.
Caused By: java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist.
Similar previliges can be granted to the work schema on target.
Venkat

i think it would be fine with only one schema(user) created at the source system which has got read access on the tables of the EBS DB. Now to resolve this error, assuming XXAPPS user is the one used,
in the topology --> data server(for EBS) --> physical schema the EBS schema name could be selected for Schema and XXAPPS as the work schema(for all ODI work related objects e.g. CDC)
Also, in the Data server the user XXAPPS needs to be used which has read access to EBS tables.
Now everytime ODI generates a query it will access a table lets say DUMMY as ,<EBS Schema>.DUMMY thus the reference is made.
Alternatively, you can create synonyms for EBS tables in XXAPPS schema.

Problem in Scheduling a Package/Interface in Oracle data Integrator.

Hi all,
I have a problem in scheduling in odi.
I have followed the steps:-

"Oracle Data Integrator" with "Total Recall"

Hi all,
We are planning to use Oracle Data Integrator 11g for performing ELT in Oracle 11g database. We are also planning to enable the "total recall" (flashback) technology and house all our tables on it.
Question I have in my mind right now is, will ODI and Total Recall work well together?
Background
Say we have an interface defined with the target data store defined on a tablespace with flashback enabled. Say there are 100 rows in the source, of which 10 rows violated the check constraint . The "bad" data, violating the constraint, will be moved to the E$ table while the rest of the 90 rows are loaded into the target.
Questions*
1) If our business rule dictates zero tolerance for errors and a ROLLBACK is issued, what will happen to the data in the E$ table?
2) Say we have committed* the 90 rows and want to use a flashback transaction query to undo the changes, how will it affect the E$ table?
3) Will the rows be deleted from the E$ table also along with rolling back of the changes in the target?
4) If the errors in E$ are recycled and this interface is restarted after the rollback is performed, will the I$ table contain 110 rows i.e. source data + data from E$?
5) How does ODI handle recycling / reprocessing of the violations in E$ table?
Please advice.
Thank you.
CC

1.) The data in E$ will remain there
2.) The data in E$ will remain there
3.) The data in E$ will remain there
4.) 90 rows. The recycled will still error out
5.) To me the recycling feature is pretty lame. You need to fix the errors in the E$ table and then recycle will load the data.

How to set Oracle Data Integrator Timeout paramter value as unlimited

Hi
Can any one help me how to set Oracle Data Integrator Timeout (ODI menu>User Paramter>Oracle Data Integrator Timeout > paramter value as unlimited.
By default it is 30 and i want to change it as unlimited.
I am connecting linux box through windows using citrix and opened ODI and start the scenario execution (my scenario execution in loop and it will execute continuesly) after execution starts I an logout from citrix (I am not closing ODI) and after some time like 50 min my odi execution is stoped due to timeout.
my ODI execution should continue in my absence that to unlimited.
Please help me it is urgent
Regards,
Phanikanth

Thanks Bhabani
Is it work for unlimited in linux box because I have given operator dispplay limit(0=no limit) as 1000000 and I am unable to see the execution session details on Operator>session list
later i have changed to 10000 and click on ok and just refreshed and it is working fine
If I give mensioned below it will not impact on ODI ?
windows it is working but I have doubt on linux version
Please help me

** Regarding Oracle Data Integrator Companion 11gR1(11.1.1.7.0)

Hi Experts,
I would like to Know regarding..
Oracle Data Integrator Companion 11gR1 (11.1.1.7.0)
Includes: Oracle Data Integrator Application Adapters for Hadoop, Oracle Applications, SAP ERP and BW (Hadoop is Newly added when compared with the older versions)
Which i found in the oracle downloads link and so i want to know the below points
1) What is the use of Oracle Data Integrator Companion 11gR1 (11.1.1.7.0)
2) if it is something like an additional adapter tool to be installed to access, where and how we need to install.
I would like to get the complete details and usage of this particular Oracle Data Integrator Companion 11gR1 (11.1.1.7.0).
Request you to kindly guide me..
Awaiting your inputs.
Many Thanks,
Pavan Kumar

Hi Pavan,
Oracle Data Integrator Companion 11gR1 (11.1.1.7.0) contains additional adapters for use with Hadoop, SAP etc which does not come with normal installation. However, you will need license for industry use of these adapters. This is especially good for a developer. However for server installs you must use one of the normal installers which additionally comes with Java EE agent capabilities which may not be the case with Companion.
Speaking of Installation procedure, this works with a simple extraction of the zip file and does not come with an installer.
Additionally, it comes with ODI Demo Environment with a local HSQL repository which can be used for training and learning purposes.
Functionally, for a developer there is no difference between normal and companion install.

Rickson Lewis

Oracle Data Integrator - Real Time Integration

Hi,
I want to know that, is there any possibility of integrating data in real-time using Oracle Data Integrator?
If yes, does it affect the OLTP system performance? (Could it read from db logs,etc..)
Thanks..

Using ODI with Logminer-based CDC will affect performance on the source system more than using Oracle Goldengate, let me explain why:
When using the ODI Logminer-based Journalisation the Logminer functionality will move the primary-key of the affected row into the journal table. When you are then ready to move the changed data, running an interface to move the data reads the Journal-view, which joins the journal table (primary keys) to the source data (and dealing with deleted rows), optimising out duplicate rows in order to bring across the then-current state of the data, which can then be loaded into the target system, on completion, the moved rows can be removed from the journal table. The data will appear in the journal table as soon as Logminer puts it there, which may be a lag of up to two minutes using asynchronous setting, whereas Synchronous Logminer applies "system triggers to the table, with the consequent overhead.
With Oracle Goldengate, the comitted transactions are read from the log as soon as the log-writer puts the commit into the log. All the data is picked up from the log, at that point. It is then written to the trail-file system of Oracle Goldengate which can be propogated to multiple other systems potentially with sub-second latency, and minimal impact on the source system due to the efficient reading and writing mechanisms. One other consequence of using Oracle Goldengate is that you get every change of the data, not the optimised then-current state of the data when moved.
Hope this explanation helps.

Oracle Data Integrator does not start

Hi,
I just installed ODI 11g (11.1.1.7.0), and successfully created repositories with rcu.
But I have problems startgin the application itself. The environment may be the issue :
OS - Debian Wheezy 64bits
java - version "1.6.0_27"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.12.4) (6b27-1.12.4-1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode)

ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1 -> oracle database home
ODI installed in /opt/ODI, and altered with CHMOD -R 775 /opt/ODI ('oracle' user, used for installation, is the owner)
(May not be secure, but is for evaluation only.)
I try to run ODI :

Oracle Data Services Integrator Vs Oracle Data Integrator

Hi All,
I have an ODSI Project in ODSI 10g R3. I want to migrate it to 11G as we are migrating from 10G to 11G in all other components.
Is there any upgrade version of ODSI available? Or
What is ODI(Oracle Data Integrator)? Can I use this?
Please help me.
Regards.
Nataraj R.

Hi,
ODSI will only work on WLS 10.3.0, not the latest release WLS 10.3.6 (also known as 11gR1 PS5). This is usually not an issue as ODSI typically is not collocated with other WLS applications on the same machine; you can view an ODSI+WLS cluster as a black box.
We are working on a new ODSI release, but we have not published a release date or the version it will be.
ODI is significantly different architecturally than ODSI; ODI moves data to a consolidated target database, while ODSI federates access to distributed sources without an additional database. You can search online for federation vs. consolidation to get a comparison of these two techniques. Depending on your use case and requirements ODI might be an option for you.

Alex

Any help in this regard is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Abhishek

Hi Abhishek,
I think it's linked to your OS, ODI is not ceritified on Windows 7.
You should try a manual installation without the Oracle Installer, you can refer to the documentation for this (Manual Installation of Oracle Data Integrator).
A manual installation should work if you have a JVM installed in your environment.
Thanks,
Julien
