Explore the OCI GoldenGate deployment console

The deployment console is the interface you use to create, manage, and monitor GoldenGate processes. If you're new to GoldenGate, familiarize yourself with the OCI GoldenGate 21c or 23ai deployment consoles before diving in to data replication.

You can launch the OCI GoldenGate deployment console from a deployment's Actions (ellipsis icon) menu on the Deployments page, or from the deployment's details page. Log in with the GoldenGate username and password that you specified when you created the deployment.

The 21c deployment console

After you log in successfully, you're brought to the OCI GoldenGate deployment console Administration Service Overview page.

WARNING:

You must only create and edit connections in the Oracle Cloud console. Refrain from creating or editing connections in the Credentials screen of the deployment console. Updates are automatically synced to the deployment from the Oracle Cloud console.
