• Create a Database in Minutes with

• Automate & Track Your Patch Process
• Find Out Regressed SQL from Millions
of Statements to Ensure Database

• Keep with Standard and Security Best
Practices

Scenarios & Problems to Solve
• 12 TB database in production for an internal
application
• The production DB is running on Exadata, while a
standby database is running on ZFSSA
• Agile development is used for the internal app
with 7 sprints running in parallel
• Each sprint requires a clone of the production DB
• Each sprint lasts for a month, and clones need to
be refreshed monthly as well
Case 1: Telecom Industry
Storage requirements
using traditional cloning
 Prod DB = 12 TB
 Standby DB = 12 TB
 7 Clones (7 * 12 TB)
= 84 TB
------------------
 Total 108 TB
 Time = days/weeks

• 5 production databases total 30 TB of storage
• All 5 production DBs have a standby
• Clones of the production database are required for
data analysis and reporting
• 6 total clones across different teams every quarter
• For security reasons, sensitive data has to be
masked prior to cloning
Case 1: Banking Industry
Storage requirements
using traditional cloning
 5 Prod DB = 30 TB
 5 Standby DB = 30 TB
 5 Masked DB = 30 TB
 6 Clones (6 * 30 TB)
= 180 TB
------------------
 Total 270 TB
 Time = days/weeks

Database-Aware Snap Clone
• Leverage storage level snap clone feature
• Out-of-box self service portal
• Resource quota based on role
• Integrated monitoring, snapshot/rollback, etc

Continuous Replication using:
Golden Gate or Dataguard
Standby Database
[on ZFS Storage Appliance]
Production Database
[Exadata or any commodity hardware]
Snap Clones using Standby
Private backups
(snapshots) for SSA user
Scenario 1: SnapClone Using Standby
DR Database

Discrete Replication using: RMAN
backups, Netapp SnapMirror, etc
Test MasterProduction Database
Masking and Subsetting using EM
Snap Clones using Test Master
Private backups
(snapshots) for SSA user
Benefit:
Massage data before
cloning
Scenario 2: SnapClone Using Test Master
DR Database

Customer Scenarios with Snap Clone
Customer Scenario 1
[Telecom Industry]
 Prod DB = 12 TB
 Standby DB = 12 TB
 7 Clones (7 * 2 GB of writable space)
= 84TB 14 GB
-------------------
 Total 108 ~24 TB
 Time = days/weeks minutes
Customer Scenario 2
[Banking Industry]
 5 Prod DB = 30 TB
 5 Standby DB = 30 TB
 5 Masked DB = 30 TB
 6 Clones (6 * 5 * 2 GB of writable space)
= 180TB 60 GB
---------------------
 Total 270 ~90 TB
 Time = days/weeks minutes

Automating DB Infrastructure Patching
Fully Integrated with My Oracle Support
• Proactive advisories, recommendations, and analysis
– One-off patches, patch set updates, and critical patch updates
• Zero downtime for patching
• Integrated patch management & deployment automation
• Patch intelligence and community
• Streamlined conflicts and merge patch process
• Cell patching done through “patchmgr”
Analyze TestPatch ReportProvisionStage

With KM, Bugs Fixed, Trends of Downloads
1) Proactively Recommend Patches

With Multiple Patches to Multiple Targets
2) Mass Deploy to Avoid Time Constraints

By Out of Place Patching
3) Allow Switchback & Reduce Downtime

With Comprehensive Pre-flight Checks
4) Automatically Detect Patch Conflicts

5) Automatically Rollout & Track Patch

Performance
Practices

• Concern on performance
degrading (i.e. SQL regression)
after database changes, i.e.
– DB upgrades
– Database structure changes
– Optimizer statistics refresh
– Patching
• Problems
– Partial workload
– Large workloads (100Ks SQL
statements are common)
– Non-production optimizer context
– Manual and time consuming
regression testing
– SQL performance regression after
production

• Test and predict impact of system changes on SQL query performance
• Analyze performance changes for improvements or regression
• Comprehensive performance analysis and reporting
• Re-execute SQL queries in test environment
• End-to-end solution: STS, SQL Plan Baselines, & SQL Tuning Advisor
RAT: SQL Performance Analyzer (SPA)

Consolidated SQL Performance Analyzer
• Validates SQL performance
for consolidated database
• SQL workload captured for
each database in STS
• SPA executes all workloads
together in consolidated
environment
• Identifies SQL regressions
and helps remediate them
• Existing SPA capability in DB

consolidation
• Support for Pluggable DB

Practices

Time Consuming Totally Reactive Not Scalable No Detail

1) Identify and Track Assets

You can show inventory
summary by type.

And roll up by location,
platform, lifecycle, version,
vendor, LoB, department, or
cost center.

Showing host and roll up by
platform.

Showing host and roll up by
version.

Showing databases and roll
up by version.

With Pre-Configured Templates, Ignore Differences and Notification
2) Track and Remediate Drifts from Standards
You can select/exclude
these pre-configured
template from comparison:
 Instance
 Tablesapces
 Control files
 Redologs
 Rollback Segments
 Users
 Database Options
 Feature Usage
You can ignore the differences.
You can set notification on
differences

2) Track and Remediate Drifts from Standards
with Notification
Database dbm1’s
listener port is 1521,
while dbm2’s listener
port is 1522

With Out-of-the-Box, 400+ Security Practices
3) Adhere to Security Best Practices

With Periodically Scoring

CapEx requirements

1000 % faster Databases
deployment on its enterprise cloud
“Spinning up a database, a process that used to take two
to three weeks, now takes us only 19 minutes,
something like a 1,000% improvement in deployment
time. Accelerating deployment to this degree has
brought us much closer to the customer service levels
our business goals demand.”

PATCH MANAGEMENT
$70 Billion revenue in 2011
75,000 employees
96 million retail customers
FOCUS ON
Automation
Challenge:
• Patch and upgrade large number of
databases with minimal maintenance time
• Regulations require quarterly patching for
compliance management & reporting
• Mandatory to apply PSU to over 520
databases 2 time a year
• Inventory tracking and deploying changes to
non-production databases was difficult
• During patching periods, DBAs worked extra
hours on nights & weekends
After Oracle Enterprise Manager:
• Patching process is now automated
• 4 times reduction in man hours for patching
resulting in approx 67% savings in productivity
• Application team can track changes across
non-production and production environments
resulting in no impact to development work
providing more time for coding & testing
• DBA team now focused on database
availability, scalability & performance
• IT runs like a business and adds value
