GoldenGate Software Demonstrates Transactional Data Management Solutions With MySQL at LinuxWorld Expo

Posted on: Tuesday, 9 August 2005, 09:00 CDT

At this week's LinuxWorld event, GoldenGate Software Inc., the leading provider of transactional data management solutions, will demonstrate how enterprises such as Sabre Holdings are using GoldenGate solutions with MySQL, the world's most popular open source database, to achieve unparalleled scalability at a lower cost. GoldenGate will exhibit with MySQL AB in booth #810 at the LinuxWorld Conference & Expo in San Francisco's Moscone Center, taking place on August 9-11, 2005.

Zack Urlocker, MySQL AB vice president, said, "We value our partnership with GoldenGate Software and the company's longstanding commitment to MySQL users. GoldenGate's solutions let our customers move their mission-critical data from a diverse range of databases into MySQL and reap the cost and flexibility benefits of scaling-out with open source software."

As large enterprises increasingly adopt open source technologies as part of their IT strategy, GoldenGate provides the underlying technology -- Transactional Data Management -- that captures, routes, transforms, and delivers critical data transactions in real time across heterogeneous databases, including MySQL. GoldenGate allows enterprises to take advantage of open source innovation, economics and scalability, while leveraging existing database investments.

Sabre Holdings Benefits From GoldenGate/MySQL Partnership

Sabre Holdings, the travel commerce company that operates the world's leading global distribution system and online pioneer Travelocity, knows firsthand the value of GoldenGate and MySQL. Sabre uses GoldenGate and MySQL for the Air Travel Shopping Engine (ATSE), which is now used by all Sabre-connected travel agents in North America. GoldenGate helped Sabre migrate critical data from proprietary platforms to open systems and open source technology, enabling the company to gain cost efficiencies and support unprecedented transaction volumes. Today, GoldenGate captures critical information for Sabre, including schedules, pricing and availability, and delivers it in real time across heterogeneous database environments to enable high-speed online searches.

"Because GoldenGate can deliver very large volumes of data in real time, we can implement database tiering across our proprietary and open source databases quickly and flawlessly," said Alan Walker, vice president of technology for Sabre Holdings. "Going forward, by using GoldenGate and MySQL together, we also have the ability to scale to meet our changing needs."
