Key Database Protection Goals

Business Goals
Never lose critical business data
No impact on business applications

I.T. Goals
Ensure database level recoverability
Centralized service to protect all databases

Current backup appliances fail to achieve these goals


Copyright © 2020, Oracle and/or its affiliates
Backup Appliances Are Not Designed for
Database
Treat Databases as Just Files to Periodically Copy

Data Loss Exposure Daily Backup Window


Lose all data since last Large performance impact on
backup production

Poor Database Many Systems to Manage


Recoverability Scale by deploying more
Many files are copied but backup appliances
protection state of database is
unknown
Copyright © 2020, Oracle and/or its affiliates
A New Era:
Zero Data Loss Recovery Appliance
Ground-Breaking Data Protection Solution Integrated with the Oracle Database
Eliminate Data Loss Minimal Impact Backups
Real-time redo shipping Production databases only send
provides instant protection changes. All backup and tape
of new transactions processing offloaded

Database Level Cloud-Scale Protection


Recoverability Easily protect all databases
End-to-end reliability, visibility, in the data center using
and control of databases, not massively scalable service

ZDLRA is the 5th
Oracle Database Backup Solution
ZDLRA is not the same as other RMAN Based Solutions
• ZDLRA uses Delta Push
• Delta Push is implemented using the RMAN API
• Delta Push is not the same as an RMAN Incremental LEVEL1
o Delta Push sends changed blocks in Backup Set format
o ZDLRA unpacks blocks from the Backup Set
o ZDLRA generates Virtual Full Backups in the Delta Store
• ZDLRA Real-Time Redo Protection
• ZDLRA receives redo stream as a Data Guard Destination
• Best RPO Achievable
• ZDLRA returns REDO in Archivelog Backup Set format
• Without Real-Time Redo Protection, ZDLRA uses standard Archivelog Backup Sets

Complex Considerations for Migrations
Migration Requirements
The term “migration” applies to several different changes to an Oracle database.
• Compute server (hardware or virtualized environment)
• Operating system (support, patch level, endian etc..)
• Storage architecture (database size, storage type etc..)
• Database Version (11g, 12c … 19c…)
• Character set
• Schema topology (changing the partitioning scheme)
• Encryption &/OR Compression
• Database architecture (moving into the multitenant database architecture)
Complex Considerations for Migrations
Migration Impact
• Duration of the downtime (planning, testing, retries & more).
• Database size of data files, Index files.
• Network Bandwidth between current production and EXADATA.
• Skills available, and experience in managing the whole migration process.
• Ability to restart the process if failed.
• Staging space availability if files need to be stored temporarily.
Why ZDLRA for Migration ?
• Eliminate Risk – Reduce migration time using Virtual Full; Predict and
control application downtime.
• Simplify Migration – Reduce amount of effort, resources and staging
location needed.
• Minimal Prod Impact – Leverage backup on ZDLRA to migrate, doesn’t
even need a Prod connection.
• Size Independent – Downtime not dependent on DB Size, but on metadata
and final consistent copy which you can control.
• No Post-Migration Validation – Skip post validation because the new
PROD is a physical copy of old PROD.
Copyright © 2020, Oracle and/or its affiliates
Database Migration
Types that can leverage ZDLRA

• Across different OS and DB version but with same Endian.


• Across different OS with different Endian and DB Version.
• Across different hardware but same OS and DB Version.
• Across different data centers.

• Zone 2 & 3 - The RA performs additional checks to ensure backup data is valid and complete
• TDE databases have no impact on the ability to validate the database backup
