CDC source and relational destination

Oracle with SQL Flow

This page describes Oracle's continuous-data role in SQL Flow. It is separate from Omni Loader's one-time bulk-migration support and focuses on capture, delivery, and recovery behavior.

Supported direction

Where Oracle fits in the continuous path

CDC source

Capture committed Oracle changes

Validate the available capture mode, privileges, logging settings, retention, and restart position before promising a continuous stream.

Compare source modes →

CDC destination

Keep Oracle current

Confirm stable keys, compatible types, schema ownership, apply concurrency, retry policy, and the lag target that operations will measure.

Review destination behavior →

Deployment checks

Test the contract around the real Oracle environment

Access

Can SQL Flow reach the Oracle interfaces and metadata required for its supported direction?

Record meaning

Do keys, before-images, large values, schema changes, and transaction boundaries match the downstream contract?

Recovery

Can checkpoints, retained history, retries, and target state survive the outage scenarios you expect?

Validate the Oracle CDC path before production.

Bring the engine version, hosting model, permissions, keys, workload, and recovery goals. We will identify the checks that matter for this direction.

SQL Flow handles automatically

The software does the migration work.

  • SQL Flow selects provider-aware capture, type handling, and apply behavior.
  • Supported capabilities and prerequisites are matched to the chosen database.
  • Database-specific differences are applied without rebuilding the migration.

You choose

Keep control of the decisions that matter.

  • Choose the source and target database.
  • Select among the available CDC modes.
  • Choose type mappings and target-apply policy.
