Get up to speed with Oracle's Autonomous Databases and implementation strategies for any workload or use case, including transactional, data warehousing, and non-relational databasesKey FeaturesExplore ADB, its business benefits, and architectural considerationsMigrate the existing workload to ADB, explore high availability, and use cloud native methods for monitoring and event notificationsLeverage APEX, JSON, the REST API, and SQL Developer Web features for rapid developmentBook DescriptionOracle Autonomous Database (ADB) is built on the world's fastest Oracle Database Platform, Exadata, and is delivered on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), customer data center (ExaCC), and Oracle Dedicated Region Cloud. This book is a fast-paced, hands-on introduction to the most important aspects of OCI Autonomous Databases.You'll get to grips with concepts needed for designing disaster recovery using standby database deployment for Autonomous Databases. As you progress, you'll understand how you can take advantage of automatic backup and restore. The concluding chapters will cover topics such as the security aspects of databases to help you learn about managing Autonomous Databases, along with exploring the features of Autonomous Database security such as Data Safe and customer-managed keys for Vaults.By the end of this Oracle book, you'll be able to build and deploy an Autonomous Database in OCI, migrate databases to ADB, comfortably set up additional high-availability features such as Autonomous Data Guard, and understand end-to-end operations with ADBs.What you will learnExplore migration methods available for Autonomous Databases, using both online and offline methodsCreate standby databases, RTO and RPO objectives, and Autonomous Data Guard operationsBecome well-versed with automatic and manual backups available in ADBImplement best practices relating to network, security, and IAM policiesManage database performance and log management in ADBUnderstand how to perform data masking and manage encryption keys in OCI's Autonomous DatabasesWho this book is forThis book is for decision makers, enterprise cloud architects, solution consultants, cloud engineers, implementation partners, and technology students, as well as anyone who wants to learn about Oracle's Autonomous Databases delivered on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Beginner-level knowledge of Linux and OCI and networking concepts and databases, along with hands-on experience in OCI environments is required before getting started with this book.

Work with Oracle database’s high-availability and disaster-management technologies. This book covers all the Oracle high-availability technologies in one place and also discusses how you configure them in engineered systems and cloud services.You will see that when you say your database is healthy, it is not limited to whether the database is performing well on day-to-day operations; rather it should also be robust and free from disasters. As a result, your database will be capable of handling unforeseen incidents and recovering from disaster with very minimal or zero downtime. Oracle High Availability, Disaster Recovery, and Cloud Services explores all the high-availability features of Oracle database, how to configure them, and best practices.After you have read this book you will have mastered database high-availability concepts such as RAC, Data Guard, OEM 13c, and engineered systems (Oracle Exadata x6/x7 and Oracle Database Appliance). What You Will LearnMaster the best practices and features of Exadata and ODAImplement and monitor high availability with OEM 13cClone databases using various methods in Oracle 12c R2Work with the Oracle sharding features of Oracle 12c R2Who This Book Is ForOracle database administrators
