Quest Software, a global systems management, data protection and security software provider, has announced the general availability of SharePlex version 10.1.1, a database management and replication solution enabling customers to move their Oracle data into Microsoft Azure cloud services.
With SharePlex 10.1.1, Oracle data can be continuously replicated to Microsoft Azure to support numerous IT resiliency use cases such as maintaining high availability Oracle instances in Azure VM, active replication between on-premise Oracle Database to Oracle on Azure VM, and multi-cloud support with replication from AWS (EC2 or RDS) to Azure.
In addition, says Quest, as the demand for greater insights into business data increases, companies are looking to leverage high-speed data streaming within their analytics platforms to provide faster, more informed data decisions. SharePlex 10.1.1 facilitates continuous high-speed replication of Oracle data to Azure Event Hubs.
And, as more companies look to diversify their database estate, they are considering other platforms for offload reporting and business intelligence. By leveraging change data capture in SharePlex, Oracle data can be moved to a reporting database or business intelligence tools in Azure SQL Database or SQL Server in real-time, ensuring that report consumers have up-to-date information.
Among other key benefits and enhancements, SharePlex 10.1.1 now offers:
- Oracle Replication to Microsoft Azure Event Hubs: Empowering customers to take advantage of Microsoft Azure services like Synapse, by streaming Oracle data into Microsoft Azure Event Hubs as a gateway into the Azure ecosystem.
- Oracle Replication to Microsoft Azure SQL Database: Enabling continuous replication of Oracle data into Azure SQL Database for lower-cost offload reporting and other use cases.
- Multi-cloud support: Through continuous replication of Oracle data from Amazon AWS (EC2 or RDS) to Oracle Database on Azure VM.
