When I was an Oracle Enterprise Manager SME working in Oracle Corporation some
years ago, I had wished that the product would work with multiple database
engines in the same superb way that it worked with Oracle databases. That never
happened, but I was pleasantly surprised recently to find a brand-new cloud-based
product was promising exactly that, and delivering it as well – a fully-managed,
high-performance DBaaS (Database as a Service) for your choice of database engine
– whether it be Oracle, MS SQL Server, MySQL, or PostgreSQL – and on your
choice of cloud, whether it be AWS or Azure. Interested, I knew I had to take a
further look.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I found that the same USA-based Enterprise Manager experts
that had made it such a great tool for on-premise Oracle databases, had gone
ahead and created <b>Tessell</b> – a company with which <b>Didgenet</b>, an Australian Indigenous
majority owned business has recently partnered with in our part of the world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">What this DBaaS product promises is a uniform and seamless
experience for "any database on any cloud". The list of databases and
clouds it supports is certainly going to expand, as per my talks with the
founders. It also fills a gap by providing a fully-managed database service for
Oracle and other database engines on Azure. There is a choice of deployment for
the data plane – it can be hosted and fully managed by the product provider in
their own cloud data infrastructure account, or hosted at the customer cloud
infrastructure account, and fully managed in that case as well. So, as an
example, let’s take a closer look at how it handles Oracle databases on Azure.<br />
<br />
Multi-Availability Zone – High Availability (HA), and cross-region Disaster
Recovery (DR) services are provided out-of-the-box, and this means that the
product can easily deliver seven nines availability for mission-critical Oracle
databases. And what about performance? If so required, high-performance Azure
compute infrastructure such as Lsv3 with <span face=""Lato",sans-serif" style="background: white; color: black; mso-color-alt: windowtext;">directly attached NVMe
storage </span>can be selected for mission-critical Oracle databases, to
deliver up to 2 million IOPs with low latency. About the capacity, it can be large
enough to suit your needs - up to 96 vCPUs, 768 GiB RAM, and 60 TB storage. For
other Oracle databases with normal performance requirements, standard
infrastructure such as Azure VMs and premium disks can be used.<br />
<br />
The other benefit of a fully managed database service is that DBA time for
day-to-day activities is considerably reduced. This is something close to my
heart, having been a DBA since the 1990s. I always wanted to reduce or automate
tedious manual DBA tasks, finish work and go home early (in the days before
work from home). And this product will help. The DBaaS data plane provides an “Availability
machine” that executes regular automated snapshots (minimum of 1 per day) and Oracle
archive log backups (every 5 minutes), with 1-click recovery available to the
DBA to recover a database up to the last committed transaction, or perform a
point-in-time recovery, or recover from a snapshot of the database. Redo logs
are multiplexed by default. This type of data protection and data availability
allows zero data loss. Even logical backups (Oracle export dumps) used by many
Oracle customers, can be created with a few clicks.<br /><br />Database Patching is also an important DBA activity, and in
this case patches for minor version upgrades are applied automatically. The DBA
can select the patch version to apply, and then schedule patching, or patch
straight away.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Importantly, the Availability Machine also enables masking, sanitization, and
cloning of such data. Not many products do that. Data access policies can be
created so that masked data can be securely shared with non-production
environments such as development or UAT.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This is very important to protect personal confidential information in
databases from data leaks in today’s day and age. As a matter of fact, some of
my friends have been the victims of recent leaks, and this could have been
avoided if masking of data had been enforced for UAT testing and development in
the service provider where their personal confidential information was stored. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The DBaaS product can be used out-of-the-box, but is also
flexible enough to allow customization in various aspects. You can bring your
own software images, database parameters, keys, network and security settings,
cloud account, licenses and even identity providers. And your existing
databases, whether on-premise or on the cloud, self-managed or managed by
another provider, can be migrated to the DBaaS data plane using the migration
services provided by the company or partner.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Monitoring and Log visibility is out of the box. What I also
understood was that the DBaaS product can be integrated with third-party
software and services for observability, security/compliance, and data pipelines
– including Oracle Enterprise Manager, Azure Monitor, Datadog, Splunk and
others. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> <br /></span><br />All that certainly makes <b>Tessell</b> worth looking
into, and it looks like partner <b>Didgenet</b> is ready to help in Australia.<o:p></o:p></p>

During that time, database administrators managed the Exadata infrastructure themselves but as the environment grew to six Exadata systems they struggled to keep up with the day-to-day care and maintenance of those systems. Having experienced multiple performance inconsistencies, the lean IT team of eight people required the infrastructure team to become involved. It was then that the company realized the value and efficiency of utilizing HCI to improve current operations.
With the Dell EMC solution that is described in this case study, the benefits included $1.8M reduction in hardware support expenses over three years, 13% decrease in core Oracle licensing and $455K savings in Oracle licensing support costs annually along with 12% performance improvement on workloads.

<br />
My Oracle Press book "Oracle Private Database Cloud cookbook" looks at all the private database/ schema/ PDB services in detail, and shows you how to set up Chargeback, and also explains how to use the RESTful API for performing DBaaS, SCHaaS and PDBaaS, and gives step by step instructions to set up the Oracle Database Hybrid Cloud using the Enterprise Manager Hybrid Gateway to connect to the Oracle Public Database Cloud.<br />

The book has been reviewed by popular Oracle ACE Director Gokhan Atil, he said "I can say that I really liked the book. It’s really easy to read and all topics are explained by detailed samples. Porus Havewala has a deep knowledge and experience about the subject so his instructions are very clear. It’s like following a workshop about building Database as a Services architecture on Cloud."<br />
<br />
The book has also been reviewed by Rob Zoeteweij who is an Oracle ACE, Enterprise Manager expert, specialist and trainer. He also has his own Linkedin group on Enterprise Manager. His review says "When you are looking for a book on a thorough guidance through the setup of DB as a Service and Schema as a Service and working with the Self Service portal of Oracle Enterprise Manager release 13c Cloud Control, stop looking you found it.

<br />
This is a message from my friend and Oracle licensing expert Sibaji Dey Choudhury.<br />
<br />
Oracle Licensing has been a global challenge for a number of years now, and a lack of deep understanding on Oracle Licensing has derived $$ Millions during audits from unaware Oracle customers. To help tackle this issue 'Licensing Circle' was built to train and certify Oracle professionals on a comprehensive, portal-based knowledge on Oracle License Management.<br />
<br />

My friend and fellow Oracle OCP Nathan McAteer is providing all readers with an opportunity to purchase the latest version of Riyosu’s Aussie database performance tuning software "Ellarose" at a discounted rate. Ellarose, named after his daughter by the proud father, is used by some of Australia’s largest financial institutions on a daily basis. In fact the majority of articles posted by Nathan on the Riyosu website are real world scenarios from one of the top 4 Australian banks.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2UXZqtPHZxc/WdScfOCpozI/AAAAAAAADAk/qnyJB2p56AsoyZw2O6b8dt3RYcd7OYy1gCLcBGAs/s1600/RiyosuArticle_image.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="928" data-original-width="1424" height="208" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2UXZqtPHZxc/WdScfOCpozI/AAAAAAAADAk/qnyJB2p56AsoyZw2O6b8dt3RYcd7OYy1gCLcBGAs/s320/RiyosuArticle_image.png" width="320" /></a>The product is extremely versatile and covers a range of Oracle version and editions. Both Standard and Enterprise edition are supported from 10g. Backward compatibility from 9i downwards is cleverly done by allowing the user to tailor the underlying scripts which query the database performance metrics. Access to the underlying scripts is a huge bonus and rarely do vendors share the intelligence of their product like this. It means you also get access to hundreds of great performance scripts. Not licensed to use AWR? Not a problem because it also works on STATSPACK. There are a whole series of articles from Nathan on the Riyosu web site <a href="https://www.riyosu.com/">https://www.riyosu.com</a> about the database performance tuning that can be achieved by Ellarose.<br />
<br />
The Ellarose product itself can be downloaded through the Riyosu online store at <a href="https://www.riyosu.com/online-store">https://www.riyosu.com/online-store</a> for an annual subscription of $349 USD (further discount code provided below). Once you have your subscription you can use it on *any* number of databases within your organisation. Note that similar products on the market would cost ten times as much.<br />
<br />
For a further 10% discount, enter the special coupon code of "SDBA1".<br />
<br />
Note: You can apply your discount code after clicking on the “BUY NOW” button.<br />

<br />
In this new workshop, instructions will be provided by Gavin on how to install and configure an Exadata Storage Server on your own individual VirtualBox platform.<br />
<br />
You will learn about the architecture, key features and capabilities of Exadata Database Machine as well as how to administer, monitor and manage the Exadata Storage Server using the CELLCLI command line interface. Attendees will learn how to use CELLCLI to create and manage celldisks, grid disks and flash disks as well as how to configure alerts and monitoring of storage cells on their own individual Exadata Storage Server environments.<br />
<br />
The 4-week online workshop commencing on Saturday, 30th September will include hands-on lab exercises for each module (for which remote support will be provided) and cover a wide variety of topics (the full list can be seen in the registration URL given below). Recordings of sessions will be made available for future reference.<br />
<br />
The course curriculum is based on topics in the Exadata Database Machine: 12c Administration Workshop course offered by Oracle University, the latter costs over US$5000 whereas Gavin's workshop is only $499.00 USD which is about 1/10th of the cost.<br />
<br />
Kindly use the link below to register and pay for the Exadata Essentials for Oracle DBA’s training course.<br />

Since version 10g, the Oracle DB has had self-tuning capabilities, i.e. auto application of SQL profiles using the Tuning pack license. Everything else was done by the DBA, perhaps with advice gained from the Tuning Advisor, but the DBA had to make the final call. Probably the self-tuning has been carried further in the coming version with expertise from machine learning. Regarding AWS databases, I would agree that the AWS capability of performance insights is only at its starting stage so databases on AWS Aurora cant really be compared to what Oracle will offer in this regard.</span>Porus Homi Havewala (પોરસ હોમી હવેવાલા)http://www.blogger.com/profile/04385272546735678398noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-145717910213867806.post-52068104451533841412017-09-13T14:32:00.003+08:002017-09-13T14:32:58.201+08:00No-Win, No-Fee Oracle Licensing Review Offer for your Oracle usage<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/--sbLBu7Un5c/WbjQselk5PI/AAAAAAAAC8s/QWlMnIBjaukhumlkkjyhqWCj1852EQRzACLcBGAs/s1600/SibajiKonnagarCombined.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="757" data-original-width="450" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/--sbLBu7Un5c/WbjQselk5PI/AAAAAAAAC8s/QWlMnIBjaukhumlkkjyhqWCj1852EQRzACLcBGAs/s320/SibajiKonnagarCombined.jpg" width="190" /></a><span style="background-color: white; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">Dear Friends,<br /><br />As we all know, Oracle Licensing is a complex subject and a lack of its complete understanding can attract millions of dollars in contractual non-compliance during an official audit. Non-compliance on Oracle Licensing can be due to several reasons, including vague rules and inaccurate analysis. If your Oracle licensing is not fully managed or optimised, then you also risk over-paying for support costs that could have been avoided. Over-Licensing or Under-Licensing can both bring large financial exposure for an Oracle end-user organisation. </span><br style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;" /><br style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">Exclusively for the members/friends of our 'Oracle Senior DBA' group on Linkedin, we have negotiated with 'Konnagar Limited' >> </span><a class="js-link post-link" href="https://www.linkedin.com/redir/redirect?url=www%2Ekonnagar%2Ecom&urlhash=Xq5v&_t=tracking_anet" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #008cc9; cursor: pointer; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; transition: color 0.1s; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">www.konnagar.com</a><span style="background-color: white; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"> << to help you reach a safe harbor with compliance on Oracle licensing.

As mentioned earlier, Oracle Licensing can be a complex subject, and a lack of its understanding for Oracle professionals (including DBAs) could almost certainly lead to substantial financial risk exposure due to contractual non-compliance. To help avoid such scenarios, training on licensing is essential. Licensing|Circle is globally the first and only comprehensive & online training, reference, assessment and certification platform on Oracle License Management.<br />
<br />
I hope you have enjoyed the free module of Licensing|Circle. If not, you can still request FREE ACCESS to the first module ('Oracle Licensing Overview') of the training by following the instructions in the link below.<br />

<br />
Oracle Licensing can be a complex subject, and a lack of its understanding for Oracle professionals (including DBAs) could almost certainly lead to substantial financial risk exposure due to contractual non-compliance. Depending on the size and complexity of the Oracle license estate, the commercial value of the non-compliance could run into $$ Millions during an official audit.<br />
<br />
To combat this, we now have Licensing|Circle, which is globally the first and only comprehensive & online training, reference, assessment and certification platform on Oracle License Management.<br />
<br />
You can now request free access to the first module ('Oracle Licensing Overview') of the training by following the instructions in the link below. <a href="https://licensingcircle.com/p/oracle-license-management-training-free-preview">https://licensingcircle.com/p/oracle-license-management-training-free-preview</a><br />
<br />
After a few days, we will announce a discount code for the full course.<br />
<br />
I am sure this will be a huge value add for all members. I suggest you request access to the free module initially for a head start into the course. If you need any support, you can write to info@licensingcircle.com<br />
