Dive into high-stakes database HA! Oracle ACE Director Martin Klier and Axel vom Stein unveil the art of compromise between customer needs, planning, and ops. Crack complexity, costs, performance in Oracle RAC. Scale it! 🚀 #DatabaseHA #OracleRAC #Scaling

Making database systems highly available is somewhat of a challenge. In the end, a whole chain of middle ways emerges, in which the interests of the end customer must be weighed conscientiously: The manufacturer makes compromises in order to provide the required functions. The planner makes compromises in order to obtain an affordable concept. The implementation makes compromises to make the system operable. And operations department makes compromises in order to survive with the system on a day-to-day basis.

What does this area of conflict look like in concrete terms? Complexity, costs, performance - Oracle ACE Director Martin Klier wants to illuminate these three fields in detail in his lecture, which was developed in close cooperation with Axel vom Stein. The focus will be on the problem area of system performance when using RAC: Which disadvantages do I buy by which HA features? Can the performance gains of multiple nodes outweigh the disadvantages? Which workloads are suitable for scaling?

You are going to learn, how Oracle RAC scales, and where scaling will come to its borders, and how to plan for this in infrastructure and application.
