The Oracle Database 19c: RAC Administration Workshop offers specialized training for managing RAC databases for optimal performance and reliability.
Target Audience for the Oracle Database 19c: RAC Administration Workshop:
Gain in-depth knowledge of Oracle RAC, Grid Infrastructure, and their administration to ensure high availability and scalability of Oracle databases in a clustered environment.
Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) is a technology that allows multiple computers to run an Oracle database application while accessing a single database at the same time. This setup enhances the availability and scalability of applications, as the system can still function if one or more servers fail. RAC is particularly useful for business-critical applications that require continuous uptime and high performance. It distributes the load among multiple servers, ensuring stability and faster processing, which is especially effective in handling large volumes of data and concurrent user sessions.
Grid infrastructure is a crucial component in managing data across multiple systems and ensuring continuous access and high availability. It refers to the foundation for an enterprise-level, scalable system that supports Oracle databases, including features like cluster management, storage and network management. These systems often work seamlessly with Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) to enhance database performance and ensure reliability. Grid Infrastructure simplifies operations by providing a robust architecture for planned maintenance without downtime, effectively supporting complex configurations like Oracle Database 19c. This infrastructure is critical for administrators aiming for efficient management and optimal operational continuity.
Clusterware architecture is a technology framework that enables multiple servers to operate as a single system. Its primary role is to manage the high availability and scalability of software applications and database services, like those in Oracle Database 19c RAC (Real Application Clusters). Clusterware handles the coordination and operation of all servers in the cluster, ensuring that if one server fails, another can immediately take over its tasks without losing data or service continuity, thereby providing continuous availability and service. This architecture is crucial for businesses requiring round-the-clock access to critical data and applications.
Grid Naming Service (GNS) in Oracle Database environments, particularly in Real Application Clusters (RAC), simplifies the management of network configuration. It provides a unified network naming solution for all cluster nodes, automating the association of network addresses to node names in a cluster system. This is crucial in environments where scalability and quick access to database resources are priorities, ensuring seamless communication and effective load balancing across multiple servers in the cluster. GNS thus enhances both configuration simplicity and operational efficiency, key to maintaining smooth and responsive database systems.
High availability is a system design approach and associated service implementation that ensures a certain level of operational performance, usually uptime, for a higher-than-normal period. This means that the system or component is continuously operational for a desirably long length of time. High availability systems include redundancy and failover capabilities to ensure that if one component fails, another can immediately take its place without loss of service. This is crucial in environments where system downtime can lead to significant losses or where continuous operation is critical, such as in database management and online transaction processing.
Multitenant architecture is a feature in modern databases that allows a single instance of a database to host multiple separate databases. This setup helps organizations efficiently manage and scale multiple databases as distinct environments, called tenants, within the same infrastructure. The architecture increases resource utilization, streamlines database maintenance, upgrades, and operations while providing strong isolation for security. This model is especially useful in cloud computing, as it allows for hosting multiple customers (tenants) on the same hardware while keeping their data separate and secure.
Upgrading and patching Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) involves updating the software to newer versions and applying fixes to address vulnerabilities or bugs. This process ensures that the database environment, like the Oracle Database 19c RAC, remains stable, secure, and compatible with other technologies. Regular patching minimizes downtime, enhances performance, and aligns the system with the latest technological standards. Careful planning and testing are crucial before implementing upgrades to prevent interruptions to service and data integrity issues. Additionally, these upgrades can involve training to familiarize administrators with new features and best practices.
Managing backup and recovery involves creating and storing copies of data to protect organizations from data loss. This process ensures that if the original data is lost due to hardware failure, software malfunction, or a cyberattack, it can be restored from the backup copies to minimize disruption and maintain business continuity. Regularly testing recovery procedures is crucial to ensure that data can be quickly and accurately restored when needed, thereby safeguarding against data loss and ensuring operational efficiency.
