Do you have a large database? A VERY large database? And do you need to migrate it to a different platform? In this session learn about the right tools to ease your migration and keep the downtime as low as possible. Discover how Oracle Recovery Manager incrementally rolled forward backups combined with transportable tablespaces enable a smooth migration of databases even larger than 100 TB across platforms and endianness. Get a detailed explanation of the approach using Oracle’s PERL scripts from configuration to execution, and gain insights into two real-world migrations in the US and EMEA with databases larger than 100 TB, one using traditional transportable tablespaces and the other using Oracle Data Pump’s fully transportable Export/Import feature.
Upgrade and Migration Labs
We will give three Hands-On Labs.. Please be there 15 minute before the lab starts. You may line up for open seats. But there’s no guarantee if you haven’t signed up for the lab upfront. Usually there are 5-10 open seats due to no-shows. But please don’t get angry with us if you come too late and your seat has been given away to somebody else. In case you’ll miss our lab you can always access and download it via the blog: https://mikedietrichde.com/hands-on-lab/
We are really looking forward to meet you there!

In this hands-on lab learn to upgrade a database from release 11.2.0.4 to release 12.2.0.1. Then convert this database to a pluggable database (PDB) and plug it into a multitenant container database (CDB). Lastly attendees migrate a second 11.2.0.4 database directly into a 12.2.0.1 PDB using the new Oracle Database 12c Full Transportable Export/Import feature. This is a great way to get hands-on experience with different upgrade and migration methods, all under the tutelage of Oracle’s database upgrade team.
Meet the Database Upgrade Development Team
If you need to discuss your upgrade and/or migration topics with us please get in touch with your Oracle contacts. They will arrange a meet-up with us and the room in the CVC Hall. Or you just come by at our booth in the Exhibition Hall.
For Oracle colleagues:
Please contact us early enough as naturally the closer we get towards OOW the less slots are open.
