Re: Database Upgrade

I concur. The latest version of GG is extremely easy to set up. Creating tables for DDL replication is no longer required. Ignoring truncates or deletes is a breeze. Since the advent of the integrated extract and replicat processes, GG setup is extremely easy. The only problem with GG is the price. Quest is much more flexible with the SharePlex and will even rent a license when doing an upgrade or move to another platform. SharePlex is a proven product, long time in the market and with a rock solid reputation, so the risk is minimal.  It will take some more effort than GG to setup SharePlex, but the end result is fast and reliable replication. That can be used to migrate between versions and between platforms.
