Key Factors for a
Successful Database Deployment - Caleb Small
This presentation
summarizes the key success factors derived from a real-world
deployment of two pairs of Oracle Database Applicances in
primary/standby database configurations. It includes best
practices for planning, initial deployment, production database
migration, RMAN backup, and DataGuard physical standby
configuration. It also touches on operational topics including log
rotation, alert log scanning and notification, and automatic
DataGuard health checks and notifications. While some points
are unique to the ODA and RAC, the factors presented here are
applicable to any production database deployment.
About Caleb
Caleb is a senior
consulting Oracle DBA with decades of experience in IT, and
specifically with Oracle high availability installations since
version 7. He has deployed dozens of production systems on
both scratch built and engineered systems including the the Oracle
Database Appliance. This, in combination with his experience
as a professional instructor, and featured speaker for user groups
around North America makes his presentations both informative and
entertaining.
