Oracle and High Availability11
The data stored in your databases is one of your organization??™s most valuable assets.
Protecting and providing timely access to this data when it is needed for business
decisions is crucial for any Oracle site.
As a DBA, system administrator, or system architect, you??™ll probably use a variety of
techniques to ensure that your data is adequately protected from catastrophe. Of
course, implementing proper backup operations is the foundation of any availability
strategy, but there are other ways to avoid a variety of possible outages that could
range from simple disk failures to a complete failure of your primary site.
Computer hardware is, by and large, extremely reliable, and that can tempt you to
postpone thinking about disaster recovery and high availability.
