Let me explain my point here a bit better. (I don't know the size of your
data of course)
You can do your datapump using parallel and if you have GoldenGate you use
GoldenGate to keep the new data in sync for the tables you've identified.
My whole point was about using datapump + Golden Gate. Then when you're
ready to cutover to the new database the data will be there and doesn't
have to be done on your go-live weekend or whatever. (since you mentioned
that Golden Gate might be an option).
