San Francisco and Redwood City, CA, December 10, 2008 -- GoldenGate Software, Inc., a leading provider of high-availability and real-time data integration solutions, and Ingres Corporation, a leading provider of open source database software and support services, today announced that customers can take advantage of Ingres Database, the leading open source database, with the real-time capabilities of GoldenGate Software's solutions for managing the availability and accessibility of critical data. The recent release of GoldenGate ® v10.0 delivers greater support and flexibility for heterogeneous environments; including log-based capture from Ingres source systems to enable high availability and zero downtime upgrades and migrations.

Ingres Database offers high-volume transaction processing, high availability, multi-platform support, and security for business-critical application deployments. By deploying the GoldenGate high availability solution, Ingres users can now facilitate log-based, real-time change data capture allowing logical data replication with high performance, low overhead, ease of use, and flexibility.

The GoldenGate technology solution directly reads and captures changed data from the Ingres database transaction logs and delivers that data to a secondary Ingres database-in real-time and with minimal impact. This technology provides Ingres customers with high availability for business-critical applications minimizing or eliminating downtime during planned or unplanned outages, including upgrades and migrations. The GoldenGate solution can also feed the data in real-time from heterogeneous source databases to an Ingres database dedicated for reporting and analysis purposes, so users can benefit from real-time reporting for improved business intelligence.

"The GoldenGate solution's ability to capture and deliver to an Ingres database environment enhances the business capabilities for providing higher levels of availability during a time where service level agreements are becoming more stringent," said Fred Gallagher, vice president of business development at Ingres. "Our customers will benefit from a more flexible and affordable open-source database solution, without compromising high availability requirements for their mission-critical applications."

GoldenGate Software's customers have the ability to standardize on a single technology platform to distribute data across the enterprise and easily accommodate ever-changing IT infrastructures. The GoldenGate solution's real-time, log-based change data capture (CDC) capabilities enable real-time data integration solutions. With the CDC capabilities offered by GoldenGate, Ingres customers can keep their environments highly available during unplanned outages, as well as during critical migrations and upgrades, whilst leveraging Ingres as the platform for a dedicated real-time reporting and business intelligence system.

"GoldenGate v10.0 significantly extends our heterogeneous database support capabilities and Ingres is no exception," said Anthony Brooks Williams, Senior Director, Business Development for GoldenGate Software. "As the demand for real-time enterprise capabilities increases, the combined solution of Ingres with GoldenGate provides a flexible, open, and scalable solution for customers to achieve improved uptime and manageability."
