Oracle Database Views and Tables for Oracle GoldenGate

Oracle GoldenGate for Oracle over the last few releases have been moving towards an integrated architecture.  This means that there is more views and tables within the Oracle Database that support Oracle GoldenGate.  You can quickly find these views and tables by using a where clause with a filter for GoldenGate:

select * from all_views where view_name like ‘%GOLDENGATE%’;

select * from all_tables where table_name like ‘%GOLDENGATE%’;

When looking at the views, you can tell that there are views that allow you to look at container rules, inbound processing, privileges, rules, support_mode, messagetracking, and other interesting items.  There are 29 views in all that can be referenced during processing and provide insight into what could be going on within a GoldenGate environment.

VIEW_NAME

When you take a look at the tables, you will see that there are only two tables.  These tables provide details on the rules applied to the container and the privileges assigned to the GoldenGate user.

TABLE_NAME                                                             
--------------------------------------------------------
GOLDENGATE$_CONTAINER_RULES
GOLDENGATE$_PRIVILEGES

In all, as of Oracle Database 19c, there are 31 table and views that can be used within the Oracle Database to help you administer Oracle GoldenGate.

I’ll get around to writing something up on individual views and/or tables, but for the moment this should provide a great starting point for you to gain an understanding of what is happening with a GoldenGate environment from within the database.

Enjoy!!!
