Oracle Autonomous Database in Enterprise Architecture

By: Sharma, Krishnakumar KM, Panda

Overview of this book

Oracle Autonomous Database (ADB) is built on the world’s fastest Oracle Database Platform, Exadata, and is delivered on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), customer data center (ExaCC), and Oracle Dedicated Region Cloud. This book is a fast-paced, hands-on introduction to the most important aspects of OCI Autonomous Databases. You'll get to grips with concepts needed for designing disaster recovery using standby database deployment for Autonomous Databases. As you progress, you'll understand how you can take advantage of automatic backup and restore. The concluding chapters will cover topics such as the security aspects of databases to help you learn about managing Autonomous Databases, along with exploring the features of Autonomous Database security such as Data Safe and customer-managed keys for Vaults. By the end of this Oracle book, you’ll be able to build and deploy an Autonomous Database in OCI, migrate databases to ADB, comfortably set up additional high-availability features such as Autonomous Data Guard, and understand end-to-end operations with ADBs.

Summary

This chapter explains various provisioning aspects, IAM, and networking considerations for ADBs. It also explains how you can take advantage of a Free tier cloud subscription to get familiar with OCI and ADBs. You should be able to design different roles needed to deploy and maintain your ADB and apply the principle of least privilege. A secure networking consideration such as private endpoints enhances the overall security posture of your database deployment. We have discussed ADBs and their deployment options. Let’s talk about how to migrate to an ADB in the next chapter.
