Oracle Database 11g: Data Guard Administration Release 2
Duration: 4 Days
What you will learn
In this course, students learn how to use Oracle Data Guard to help protect their Oracle database against planned and
unplanned downtimes. They also learn how Data Guard standby databases can be used to support production functions
such as reporting, querying, and testing, while in a standby role.
The course includes Data Guard architecture, the configuration of physical and logical standby databases, and role
transitions. Oracle Data Guard 11g features, including Oracle Active Data Guard and snapshot standby databases are
outlined. In addition, management of a Data Guard configuration and troubleshooting are discussed.
