Oracle Standard Edition is the perfect database for many environments like JDE and APEX, but lacks the resiliency of Data Guard and automation of Oracle Full Stack Disaster Recovery (FSDR).  No longer!  By utilizing Dbvisit’s StandbyMP tool, you can now achieve Data-Guard-like replication with full integration into Oracle FSDR to automatically switchover your Database and Application at the same time.

Learning Objectives:

Learn how you can utilize Oracle Full Stack Disaster Recovery (FSDR) to simplify and automate switchovers and failovers on Oracle SE and PostgreSQL.

How do you block the most common database attacks? Join this session for a scenario-based look at using database security features to help block real-world attacks.  Learn about the security enhancements packed into Database 23s. Schema privileges will make privilege management much easier. The new SQL Firewall embedded in the database will make stopping malicious SQL injection attacks easier. TLS 1.3 is here and brings better performance along with some simplifications on configuring TLS. But you don’t need 23c; learn how 19c has a few tricks up it’s sleeve, like password rollover, which allows the user to have two working passwords for a short amount of time.

Learning Objectives:

Businesses rely on cloning their production EBS environment for various reasons, including development, support, and reporting. The move to multitenant with database 19c has increased the complexity of the cloning process. This session will review the required steps for making a clone of a 12.2 environment using Rapid Clone, discuss what has changed with the multitenant, go over an approach to automating this process, and review the required post-Rapid Clone steps. This session will also discuss different methods that can be used for obtaining the clone of the database tier.

Learning Objectives:

1. Discuss how RapidClone works.
2. Go over the changes that multitenant architecture has introduced to the cloning process.
3. Present a method to automate the process.
