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.
