Expertise in the following Areas
High Availability Solutions
One of the challenges in designing an HA solution is examining and addressing all possible causes of downtime
We recommend and implement High Availability solutions based on the Oracle Edition, Hardware availability and Requirement.
- Proficiency in setting up Real Application Clusters (RAC)
- Migrating Production Databases to RAC
- Setup and Maintenance of Automated Standby Databases for disaster recovery - Changes can be transmitted from the primary database to these standby databases in a synchronous manner - enabling zero data loss, or in an asynchronous manner - minimizing any potential performance impact on the production system. This technology also provides an automated framework to witch over to the standby system in the event of a disaster or a corruption on the production site, or even during planned maintenances.
Backup & Recovery
Backup and recovery is one of the most important aspects of database administration. If a database crashed and there was no way to recover it, the devastating results to a business could include lost data, lost revenue and customer dissatisfaction. Whether companies operate a single database or multiple databases storing hundreds of gigabytes or even terabytes of data, they share one common factor - the need to back up important data and protect themselves from disaster by developing a backup and recovery plan.
- We prepare optimal Backup strategies to enable our clients to recover up to the point of failure.
- Backup Integrity testing is done on a regular basis.
- Managing Backups
Performance Tuning
Regular maintenance tasks are done on a regular basis to ensure that databases perform at optimal levels. Some of the tasks involve rebuilding of indexes on a regular basis, tables de-fragmentation etc.
We use Customized and Standard monitoring tools to constantly monitor the databases for any performance issues. Some of the tasks include
- Work in sync with the Application Development team to help in tuning of queries
- Constantly monitor site responses at the Client’s site and coordinate with the IT Operations Team to identify potential causes of failure.
Capacity Planning
We handle Capacity Planning for Databases by studying the existing database growth rate and gathering information on the anticipated growth rate.
Reports
Comprehensive reports on a Daily, Weekly, Monthly basis cover the following;
- Space Monitoring: Anticipating the growth of the objects and planning accordingly – this includes reports on Disk free space availability, Tablespacegrowth and Capacity Planning at the Tablespace and Object Level.
- Database Objects: Report on any Invalid Objects, Disabled Triggers, Broken Jobs, Unusable Indexes, Objects which cannot extend etc.
- Troubleshooting: Report on Table Chaining, Block Corruption, Oracle Error messages.
