SharePlex the ideal migration cum replication tool for Oracle
What do you like best about the product?
The SharePlex tool has been used for Oracle-Oracle Replication in our environment & we faced a lot of issues while stabilizing the system in Production but the support we received by the Technical team specially Berta Rae was immense & helped improved the performance to a great extent as required.
What do you dislike about the product?
The limitations experienced till now seems to revolve around setting up Bi-directional replication to achieve high availability for one of critical applications where the name of the primary database is stored in the memory & configuration of the fail-over script which would actually transfer the connections to the standby is the actual challenge faced from the application end as required.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SharePlex has allowed us to achieve live replication & setting up a reporting standalone node with required horsepower giving freedom to reduce a node from the source OLTP Real Application cluster cluster as required.Also we have configured JMS (Java Messaging Services) which allows the data to be processed in XML format as a source to UM(Universal Messaging).Also we have done on-premise migration to AWS (Relational Database Service like Oracle & PostgreSQL) using SharePlex tool & transferring the data through the network using database-link as required.Also we have configured the SharePlex grid using Fog-light utility as required.Worked with Berta Rae (Enterprise Support Tech Adviser) in various critical issues in Production Environment & gained immense knowledge in the process as required.Have gained enough expertise in performance tuning of various parameters for slow post queues issues as required.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Effective implementation of Bidirectional replication to achieve fail-over to secondary in minimum time.

Shareplex for Oracle is solid
What do you like best about the product?
Easily configured.
Allows non-disruptive adding/removing of tables to the replication stream.
Includes monitoring/alerting services.
Includes data verification and repair utilities.
Low server overhead.
The most complete solution is in Oracle to Oracle instances. But they are developing and improving capabilities for transferring data to other DB platforms.
It is robust. It recovers well when there are network or other system or service outages.
Their technical support teams are terrific.
It is half the price of other popular solutions and it works!

What do you dislike about the product?
It has been very Oracle oriented. We could really use the same functionality with other DB platforms. They are working on it but it just isn't there yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
sharing DB tables between DB instances at near real-time speeds,
