implementations in the
Cloud
DBA can be the
key driver of
success

* Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS)

▪ A self-service computing
environment offering the ability
to create, consume and pay for
database services
▪ Computing resources are
elastically supplied from a shared
pool and charged based on
metered use
▪ Service catalogs provide a menu
of options and service levels

compressing
• Database 10.2 or higher (including Standard Edition)
• Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, or Windows
• Backup encryption is mandatory.
• RMAN backups using the “Oracle Secure Backup SBT
interface” does require ASO.
• Billing models:
• Metered
• Non-Metered

Oracle Database Cloud Backup Module

and Hybrid Cloud Management

* Monitoring DBaaS Databases

Oracle DBaaS Monitor
Quick and easy access to a variety of informa?on about the database
• Database deployments on Oracle Database Cloud
Service include Oracle DBaaS Monitor, a built-in monitor
that provides a wide spectrum of informakon about
Oracle Database status and resource usage
• How you access Oracle DBaaS Monitor depends on
whether the HTTPS port (443) has been unblocked.
When a Database Cloud Service deployment is ﬁrst
created, the HTTPS port is blocked to ensure network
security. For informakon about unblocking a port, see
Enabling Access to a Compute Node Port.

Simple, Secure Deployment
Oracle Enterprise Manager
• Minimal changes to
Enterprise Manager or
enterprise network  
(no VPC required!)
• Enterprise Manager
remains hardened and
secure
Private

Hybrid Gateway handles
all communication
between private and
public cloud
Communication via HTTPS,

Hybrid Cloud Management
Upgrade, Move and Manage Through a Single Pane of Glass
On-Premises & Private Cloud
Oracle Cloud  
(Database & Java Cloud Services)
Move database and applications 
with the push of a button
Monitor and control via 
single pane of glass
Same tool, same skillsets
Faster, easier, lower cost, lower risk
Manage lifecycle including provisioning,
compliance and patching

Differentiators vs. competitive hybrid cloud management
• Single pane of glass
• Ownership of the complete stack
• Deep management for hybrid
PaaS
• 100% reuse of best practices
• Workload portability
Compe?tors
• Multiple, disjointed offerings
• Multi-partner integration
headache
• IaaS layer is primary focus
• Additional skill sets and tooling
• Cloud silos
ORACLE

• Ansible is an open source
automation platform.
• Ansible can help you with
configuration
management, application
deployment, task
automation.
• Unlike Puppet or Chef it
doesn’t use an agent on
the remote host. Instead
Ansible uses SSH
Automation Tools
Ansible

• Software written in
Ruby
• Developers can simply
checkout a repository
containing a Vagrantfile
• Can help you create
development
environments and share
the environment with
anybody else with ease
Automation Tools
Vagrant

• Provides the ability to
package and run an
application in a loosely
isolated environment called
a container
• Containers are lightweight
because they don’t need the
extra load of a hypervisor
• Can help you create
development environments
and share the environment
with anybody else with ease
Automation Tools
Docker

How does a DBA Future Look?
• Reality - The Cloud is here to stay!
• One in four IT workers are worried that their skills
could become obsolete
• Modern DBAs will need to focus more on innovation,
rather than mundane tasks
• “There’s a lot more DBAs need to know.It’s solutions.
It’s architectures. It’s critical thinking. It’s
communication skills and problem-solving.” - David
Start
• Explore open source tools like Docker or Ansible, and
learn to use REST services
