XStream mode

XStream provides a framework for sharing real-time data changes with outstanding performance and usability between Oracle databases and other systems such as non-Oracle databases and third party software applications. XStream consists of two major features: XStream Out and XStream In.

XStream Out provides Oracle Database components and application programming interfaces that enable you to share data changes made to an Oracle database with other systems. It also provides a transaction-based interface for streaming the changes captured from the redo log of the Oracle database to client applications with an outbound server. An outbound server is an optional Oracle background process that sends data changes to a client application.

XStream In provides Oracle Database components and application programming interfaces that enable you to share data changes made to other systems with an Oracle database. It also provides a transaction-based interface for sending information to an Oracle database from client applications with an inbound server. An inbound server is an optional Oracle background process that receives data changes from a client application.

The XStream mode is only available for Oracle v12 with OCI in Talend Studio. For more information about the XStream mode, see Oracle documentation.
