01 - Installing Dbvisit Replicate

Ok, so you have your RepAttack machines up and running and ready to start replicating data. Only one thing missing. Dbvisit Replicate!

What is Dbvisit Replicate?

Dbvisit Replicate is a logical replication product, it has the ability to capture changes made to data in one repository (Oracle Database) and re-apply those changes to another data repository.

It does this in an efficient, consistent manner with the ability to handle potential data conflicts that are inherent in the data replication process.

It has the ability to perform this replication in a heterogeneous environment including:

  • Across different versions of the same database platform.
  • Across different database platforms.
  • Across different operating systems and machine architectures.

In this first exercise for Part 3 - Using RepAttack, you will be installing Dbvisit Replicate on both of your source and target RepAttack machines, just follow the instructions in the child pages below.
