Move multi-terabyte Oracle databases to the cloud or new infrastructure with under 5 minutes of actual downtime.
Standard Data Pump exports leave you with hours of missing data that cause massive business downtime. The SCN-Bridge syncs your missing data in real-time, bridging the gap between your export and your go-live.

You shouldn't have to choose between data integrity and business continuity.
Real-time log-based replication — zero impact on production, zero transactions dropped.
A 5TB database means 20+ hours offline with standard expdp/impdp. To avoid this, Oracle pushes you toward GoldenGate — which can cost upwards of $200,000 in licenses and months of configuration.
Powered by a custom implementation of Apache Flink and Debezium, we deliver enterprise-grade real-time replication without the enterprise price tag.
If you need permanent, bi-directional multi-master replication for 5 years, buy GoldenGate. If you want to migrate 5TB this weekend with zero downtime and save $150k+ in licensing, use the SCN-Bridge.
A mission-critical enterprise Oracle migration — completed in hours, not weekends.
A large enterprise needed to migrate a 4TB Oracle 12c production database to 19c. Business requirements dictated a maximum offline window of 15 minutes. A standard migration estimated 20+ hours of downtime.
While the 4TB import ran on the target server, the SCN-Bridge connected to the source. Starting from the exact SCN of the snapshot, it processed over 1.2 million intermediate transactions in the background.
The SCN-Bridge achieved <1-second lag within 4 hours. The final application switch and cutover took 4 minutes and 12 seconds.
Minimal disruption. Maximum confidence.
We analyze your log retention and supplemental logging remotely. No installations required.
Your team takes a standard Data Pump export at a specific SCN. The application stays online.
We deploy the SCN-Bridge. It reads everything that changed since the snapshot and applies it to the new database.
Once 100% in sync, you pause the application, switch the connection string, and go live. Typically under 5 minutes.
Real bugs we've found and fixed in CDC pipelines — the kind of issues that silently corrupt your data.
SQL cache keyed only by table name. When Debezium omitted NULL columns, the cached SQL had wrong placeholders — silently swallowed errors. No logs. No warnings. Just a hung job.
Debezium encodes NUMBER(10,2) as base64 without scale metadata. A value of 5000.00 was decoded as 500000 — violating CHECK constraints and silently corrupting financial data.
SQL builders sorted UPPERCASED names, but parameter binding sorted original-case JSON keys. Java's case-sensitive sort caused wrong values in wrong columns — silent data corruption.
All tables shared one JDBC connection and transaction. One bad row in CUSTOMERS rolled back valid ADDRESSES rows. Multiple tables appeared hung together.
FK retry queue created new entries with retryCount=0 on each failure. The original count was discarded. Max retries were never reached — eventual OutOfMemoryError.
Every deployment includes our production diagnostic script that captures Flink job status, CDC source progress, sink metrics, and full stack traces in one command.
I'm a senior Oracle DBA with deep expertise in database internals — LogMiner, supplemental logging, SCN mechanics, and Data Guard. I also build the Java/Flink pipelines that make zero-downtime migration possible.
That combination — understanding both the Oracle side and the streaming data engineering side — is what makes the SCN-Bridge reliable where other CDC solutions silently fail. Every bug fix in this tool came from a real production issue I diagnosed and resolved.
I built SCN-Bridge because I was tired of watching teams spend $200K on GoldenGate licenses for a one-time migration, or lose a weekend to Data Pump downtime. There's a better way.
Not every Oracle database is configured to allow log-based CDC. Before we even discuss a project, I want to ensure your system is compatible.
