4.6.2.1 Starting a GoldenGate Change Stream

    Starting GG Change Data

  3. On the warning dialog box, click OK.

Note:

When you start a GG Change Data replicat process, it creates kafka topics, and starts pushing changed data to the new topics. For example, if there are 10 tables in the extract process that you chose while creating the GG Change Data, 10 new topics will be created.

The names of the topics created are in the following format: 
GGChangeDataName_fullyQualifiedTableName

You can use these topics to create a new stream (with Goldengate as stream type), and in pipelines, similar to using a Kafka stream.
