Replicate data from Autonomous AI Transaction Processing to Azure Data Lake Storage Gen 2

This quickstart demonstrates how to replicate data from Autonomous AI Transaction Processing to Azure Data Lake Storage Gen 2 using OCI GoldenGate.

Before you begin

To successfully complete this quickstart, you must have the following:

• A source Autonomous AI Transaction Processing instance

• An Azure Storage Account

• A container in the Azure Storage Account

Environment set up: Autonomous AI Transaction Processing

If you don’t already have a source database set up for replication, you can follow these steps to load a sample schema to use for this quickstart. This quickstart uses Autonomous AI Transaction Processing for the source database.

To set up the source Autonomous AI Transaction Processing:

1. Download and unzip the sample database schema.

2. In the Oracle Cloud console, select your Autonomous AI Transaction Processing (ATP) instance from the Autonomous AI Databases page to view its details and access Database Actions.

3. Unlock the GGADMIN user:

   1. Select Database actions, then select Database Users.

   2. Locate GGADMIN and then select its ellipsis menu (three dots) and select Edit.

   3. In the Edit User panel, enter the GGADMIN password, confirm the password, and then deselect Account is Locked.

   4. Select Apply Changes.

4. Load the source sample schema and data:

   1. From the Database actions menu, under Development, select SQL.

   2. Copy and paste the script from OCIGGLL_OCIGGS_SETUP_USERS_ATP.sql into the SQL worksheet.

   3. Select Run Script. The Script Output tab displays confirmation messages.

   4. Clear the SQL worksheet and then copy and paste the SQL script from OCIGGLL_OCIGGS_SRC_USER_SEED_DATA.sql.

      Tip: You may need to run each statement separately for the SQL tool to execute the scripts successfully.

   5. To verify that the tables were created successfully, close the SQL window and reopen it again. In the Navigator tab, look for the SRC_OCIGGLL schema and then select tables from their respective dropdowns.

5. Enable supplemental logging:

   1. Clear the SQL Worksheet.

   2. Enter the following statement, and then select Run Statement:

      ALTER PLUGGABLE DATABASE ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG DATA;

Task 1: Create the OCI GoldenGate resources

This quickstart example requires deployments and connections for both the source and target.

1. Create an Oracle deployment for the source Autonomous AI Transaction Processing instance.

2. Create a Big Data deployment for the target Azure Data Lake Storage.

3. Create a connection for the source Autonomous AI Transaction Processing instance.

4. Create connection for Azure Data Lake Storage.

5. Create a connection to GoldenGate, and then assign this connection to the source Oracle deployment.

6. Assign the Autonomous AI Transaction Processing connection to the source Oracle deployment.

7. Assign Azure Data Lake Storage connection to the target Big Data deployment.

Task 2: Add the Extract

1. On the Deployments page, select the source Autonomous AI Transaction Processing deployment.

2. On the deployment details page, select Launch Console.

3. Log in with the source deployment's administrator username and password.

4. Add an Extract.

Task 3: Add and run the Distribution Path

1. If using GoldenGate credential store, create a user for the Distribution Path in the target Big Data deployment, otherwise skip to Step 3.

2. In the source GoldenGate deployment console, add a Path Connection for the user created in Step 1.

   1. In the source GoldenGate deployment console, select Path Connections in the left navigation.

   2. Select Add Path Connection (plus icon), and then complete the following:

      1. For Credential Alias, enter GGSNetwork.

      2. For User ID, enter the name of the user created in Step 1.

      3. Enter the user's password twice for verification.

   3. Select Submit.

      The path connection appears in the Path Connections list.

3. In the source deployment console, add a Distribution Path with the following values:

   1. On the Source Options page:

      • For Source Extract, select the Extract created in Task 2.

      • For Trail Name, enter a two-character name, such as E1.

   2. On the Target Options page:

      • For Target Host, enter the host domain of the target deployment.

      • For Port Number, enter 443.

      • For Trail Name, enter a two-character name, such as E1.

      • For Alias, enter the Credential Alias created in Step 2.

4. In the target Big Data deployment console, review the Receiver Path created as a result of the Distribution Path.

   1. In the target Big Data deployment console, select Receiver Service.

   2. Review the path details. This path was created as a result of the Distribution Path created in the previous step.

Task 4: Add and run the Replicat

1. In the target Big Data deployment console navigation menu, select Replicats.

2. Add a Replicat with the following values:

   1. On the Replicat Information page, under Replicat type, select Classic Replicat, enter a Process Name, and then select Next.

   2. On the Replication Options page:

      • For Name, enter the name of the Trail from Task 2.

      • For Domain, select a domain.

      • For Alias, select the Azure Data Lake Storage connection created in Task 1.

      • For Checkpoint Table, select the checkpoint table you created for the target deployment.

   3. On the Replicat Parameters page, replace MAP *.*, TARGET *.*; with:

      MAP SRC_OCIGGLL.*, TARGET *.*;

   4. On the Properties page, configure Azure Data Lake Storage properties.

      • (Required) gg.eventhandler.abs.bucketMappingTemplate: Name of the Azure Data Lake Storage Container. If container is pre-configured, a static container name can be provided. If Azure authentication method permissions are provided, Template Keywords can be used for auto container creation by OCI GoldenGate.

      • (Optional) gg.handler.abs.format: Select how to format the output. JSON is the default setting. Available options include:

        • delimitedtext

        • json

        • json_row
