Oracle Autonomous Database in Enterprise Architecture

By: Bal Mukund Sharma, Krishnakumar KM, Rashmi 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.

Performance Hub

The next important management feature in the autonomous database is Performance Hub. As we know, an autonomous database manages its performance on its own. At the same time, we can see insights into the autonomous database’s real-time CPU usage, memory usage, user I/O, and disk I/O.

To access the Performance Hub page, click on the Performance Hub button on the Autonomous Database Information page.

At the top of the page, we can find the Activity Summary window, which displays the average active sessions. It provides a graphical representation of User I/O, Wait, time, and CPU usage. To look for specific data, we could filter time range (last hour/last 8 hours/last week/any custom range). We can also change the time zone, as shown in Figure 6.9. Below Activity Summary (Average Active Sessions), we can find ASH Analytics, SQL Monitoring, ADDM, Workload, and Blocking Sessions.
