DR – Exadata databases Database recovery time for DR reduced from 4 hours to 30 minutes Recovery resources reduced from 3 DBA team members to 1 DBA Patching Goal was to get to Platinum Support Certification Full Frame (Storage Cells, CRS, RDBMS, IB) required Painful – requiring a 16 hour down time schedule  Bug in CRS prevented rolling CRS Patching – Caused random nodes to restart  Reluctance to perform Cell Patching rolling – due to single frame in production Paid Off – It wasn’t for nothing!  Control File Caching to Flash Cache – Huge relief in log file sync waits  Significant buffer busy “global transaction manager” improvements We need a local standby Year 1 with Exadata

Year 2-3 with Exadata Platinum Services - Patching Directly coordinated patching with Platinum Support Platinum will make you plan, this is a good thing. Patching First half was painful again, but in a different way –We had a schedule, but did not complete platinum fast enough to schedule them! –They worked hard to support us, but the last minute details stung. –Local Standby masked all of it from our customers. Second half (Happening right now!) –Planning since May –Plans have been set since 3 weeks after July Patch set –I am here, not there, which has to tell you something.
