Distribution Path Streaming Protocols

You will need to configure a protocol for the Distribution Path to transfer trail files over the network. This configuration is done when you create a Distribution Path in the Distribution Service.

For details about selecting the streaming protocol, see Add a Distribution Path.

While setting up the Distribution Path, if you select USERIDALIAS as the target authentication method, then you can select from one of the following protocols that would be used for streaming trail data over the network:

• Secure Web Socket (wss): Secure and recommended protocol.

• Web Sockets (ws): Unsecure deployments.

• Oracle GoldenGate protocol (ogg): Provides interoperability with a non-microservices deployment.

• The following matrix provides the combinations of streaming protocols used with Oracle GoldenGate Microservices:

  Source/Target	MA Non-Secure	MA Non-Secure with NGINX	MA Secure	Classic Architecture
  MA Non-secure	Distribution path with ws protocol	Distribution path with wss protocol	Distribution path with wss protocol	Distribution Path with ogg protocol
  MA Non-secure with NGINX	Distribution path with ws protocol	Distribution path with wss protocol	Distribution path with wss protocol	Distribution Path with ogg protocol
  MA Secure	Distribution path with ws protocol	Distribution path with wss protocol	Distribution path with wss protocol	Distribution Path with ogg protocol
  Classic Architecture	Oracle GoldenGate pump Extract, connect to the Receiver Service port	Need expose target Receiver Service port, then use Oracle GoldenGate pump Extract to connect to the Receiver port. directly	NA	Regular Oracle GoldenGate pump Extract
