About the Author

John P. Jeffries has lived in the southeast of England for most of his life. Although predominantly based in London, he has worked in many countries around the world. He enjoys travel and is the Director of his own consultancy business: www.spirotek.co.uk.

Originally from a development background, he has worked for a number of global software companies including Oracle Corporation and Siebel Systems. His time at Siebel was spent designing and developing ETL solutions for Data Warehouses, ultimately enhancing the eBilling and Billing Analytics products with an Oracle Warehouse Builder based API. He spent six years working in Oracle Consulting in EMEA and Oracle Advanced Customer Services in the UK as a Senior Principal Consultant, earning the internal title of "The UK's Data Replication Expert". Now a freelance consultant, the author can be found onsite in many of the world's most respected financial institutions in London, consulting on Oracle GoldenGate, Streams, and Active Data Guard. With over 15 years of Oracle experience, and an OCP since Oracle 8i, the author has extensive knowledge of Oracle databases, including Enterprise Linux and RAC, coupled with the ability to design and build high performance distributed database systems. He has trained internal and external clients in Data Warehousing and Data Replication techniques, and continues to share his knowledge and experience through his own website: www.oracle11ggotchas.com.

Thank you for purchasing my book, which would not have been possible without the help and support from a number of key individuals and organizations.

Firstly I wish to thank my wife, Wendy, for both her drive and encouragement. Also the sacrifice that she has endured, putting aside other commitments to support me in my accomplishment.

Secondly, I wish to thank my friend and colleague, Paul Vale for his depth of knowledge of Oracle Streams. I worked closely with Paul for two years on an extensive data replication project where our shared knowledge and experience inspired me to write a book on Oracle GoldenGate.

Finally, I wish to thank Packt Publishing for agreeing to work with me and publish this book. Even now, I am astounded by the lack of available technical material on GoldenGate; this being another reason for writing. I trust you will find this book both interesting and informative, helping you to successfully implement an Oracle 11g GoldenGate environment.
