Typical Oracle Database Appliance Use Cases

• Database(s) up to a maximum of 4 TB of data

• Fast, efficient replacement of aging servers

• Higher availability for application databases

• High availability for remote/distributed sites

• Migrate and consolidate databases

• Pay-as-you-grow IT projects

SMBs and Departmental Systems

Why Oracle Database Appliance Storage Attach?

• DB Data files should stay on Oracle Database Appliance internal storage : Customers need better

space utilization of the internal, high-perf, highly available disk capacity (of 4TB) for the live

production database(s)

• Physical backup & recovery for Oracle Database Appliance and other servers/clients in the

infrastructure

• Central file store repository for Oracle Database Appliance and other servers/clients in the

infrastructure

• Create duplicate database store for reporting, DB/app testing, standby database, migration,

integrity testing, ...

• Database operational data store for database and partial exports, database uploads, ETL, and

similar

Sun ZFS Storage Appliance

Oracle Database Appliance Data Protection & Availability

• Oracle Recovery Manager (RMAN) is the Oracle-

preferred method for efficiently backing up and

recovering Oracle databases

– Reduces exposure of data loss

– Ensures advanced data recovery and RTO/RPO

objectives

– RMAN backup to disk is preferred over tape where fast

restore is required

• ZFSSA is the ideal target for RMAN backups

– Ensures data integrity on disk by end-to-end checksums

– Enables dNFS DB Cloning for

test/development/reporting purposes

– Full suite of data services and capabilities to build

advanced consolidation, disaster recovery, backup &

recovery, development/test storage

Putting it All Together

• Customer infrastructure requirements may require a mix

of different backup solutions, such as :

– Replicate to remote site by DataGuard and off-load data to tape

on the remote site

– Backup to ZFSSA first and off-load to Tape with NDMP

– Backup to ZFSSA and replicate to remote site for disaster

recovery

– RMAN Backup stream to both ZFSSA and Tape

Putting it All TogetherDeployment Scenarios for Data Protection

• Backup to ZFSSA for fast recovery and DB Cloning

• Copy on Remote site by ZFSSA Replication

• Backup to Tape for long term archival and off-site storage

• End-to-end Oracle Stack for efficiency, performance and integrity

• Can chose any mix depending on requirements
