Course Description:

In the Oracle Database 12c: Backup and Recovery Workshop, learn to evaluate your own recovery requirements. Develop appropriate strategies for backup, restore and recovery procedures from provided scenarios.

Learn To:

    Develop appropriate backup and recovery procedures to address your business needs.
    Implement backup and recovery settings and perform backup operations to disk and tape.
    Employ Oracle Database recovery procedures to recover from media and other failures.
    Diagnose and repair data failures.
    Use Flashback Technologies and data duplication to complement backup and recovery procedures.
    Secure the availability of your database by appropriate backup and recovery strategies.

Benefits To You:

Ensure fast, reliable, secure and easy to manage performance. Optimize database workloads, lower IT costs and deliver a higher quality of service by enabling consolidation onto database clouds.

Backup and Recovery:

Expert instructors will begin by helping you gain a deeper understanding of possibly the most important job of a Database Administrator - backup and recovery. The concepts and architecture that support backup and recovery, along with the steps required to carry it out in various ways and situations, are covered in detail.

Recovery Manager Command Line and Graphical Interfaces

This course will teach you about Recovery Manager (RMAN) command line and graphical interfaces for various backup, failure, restore and recovery scenarios.

Benefit From Hands-on Practices and Workshops:

Participating in extensive hands-on practices and workshops will help you gain experience in a realistic technical environment. Interactive workshops give you the opportunity to diagnose and recover from numerous failure scenarios, based on backup and recovery case studies.
