Description

Oracle is known as a database vendor, but has much more to offer than data storage solutions. Some key Oracle products that are in use or are being currently full-scale tested at CERN will be discussed in this talk. It will primarily be an open discussion and interactive feedback from the audience is more than welcome The following topics will be discussed: Oracle Client Software distribution How can a large to huge number of systems be given easy possibility to connect to Oracle database servers; what are the distribution rights and how is it actually distributed and configured. Oracle Support for Linux Oracle officially supports those Linux distributions that are in widespread use and strongly recommends that servers are being run on supported distributions. This does however not imply, that other Linux distributions cannot at all be used. This talk will elaborate on this. Oracle Streams Replication The various possibilities for using Oracle Streams to replication large amounts of data will be discussed.
