MIGRATION STRATEGIES – Tips and Tricks and Insights and Secrets
.
In the fourth summer webinar about Multitenant, we touched on some migration strategies. And now it’s time for us to dig deeper. We’d like to offer you further insights and a deep dive from a technical point of view, starting with Data Pump and Transportable Tablespaces, then Full Transportable Export Import, and adding RMAN Incremental Backups to decrease the downtime. Best practices and real-world experience will round up this two-hour webinar.REGISTRATION

MOVE TO THE CLOUD – For Techies
.
Whether you have databases in a cloud environment, or you plan to lift databases soon, this webinar is for you. We won’t cover cloud solution benefits but will show you how you can migrate your database(s) into the Oracle Cloud. We’ll start with Autonomous and also cover migration into VMs, Bare Metal, OCI, ExaCS and ExaCC. And we’ll look at minimizing downtime strategy, where ZDM can help. This two-hour webinar is not strictly for technical geeks‒but our focus will be on practical migration approaches.REGISTRATION

Presentation language is English. Daniel Overby Hansen and I will guide you through both seminars. And of course, we will try to answer all your questions during the seminars as usual.

Hi Mike. Thanks for all your previous web seminars. Very informative and useful.
We have 9 non-cdb databases with multi schemas in each instance with a total storage footprint of approximately 12-15tb in a two node rac configuration with active data guard to a second location which is read only. Storage is 3par technology.
We are upgrading to new hardware and storage on premise in a rac configuration and would look at reducing the number of container databases to 3 or 4 and splitting the 9 databases into pluggable databases across the container databases.
Could you give some feedback on the best method of migrating to the new hardware and have the minimal downtime.
Currently our tape backups run over the whole weekend for the 9 databases.
Many thanks. Looking forward to the next seminar.
Hi Robert,
as I explained today in the seminar as well, this is not simple to answer.
Have you watched our “multitenant migration” webinar already?
Then you will get a pretty precise idea where the pitfalls are, especially regarding downtime.
