Looking for an Open source alternative to GoldenGate that will stream all the DML operation in the source Oracle to a compacted kafka topic. My employer acknowledge that Larry doesn't possibly need another island. So licensing Oracle GoldenGate is not an option.
Looked at https://gitter.im/linkedin/brooklin, https://github.com/linkedin/databus , https://github.com/debezium/debezium so far. I couldn't find any documentation that states how to do Oracle CDC using these. Any pointer will be greatly appreciated. I am not asking any opinions or recommendations, I am seeking viable alternatives of GoldenGate.
I got this from Debezium gitter/slack channel, https://debezium.io/docs/connectors/oracle/. But this still needs GoldenGate license.
Here are all your options: https://rmoff.net/2018/12/12/streaming-data-from-oracle-into-kafka-december-2018/
It's worth noting there are cheaper commercial alternatives to GoldenGate, so your choice is not purely between open source and GoldenGate only.
