EMC Meets the Needs of Oracle Customers

• Lower cost – virtual pools of Oracle IT assets increase utilization and automation

• Higher service levels - makes it faster to deploy new Oracle-based apps and keep them protected and online

• Increased agility – share virtual resource pools allows Oracle IT as a service


What Does Your Cloud Need?• Great Storage With Innovative Tiering

– VMAX, VNX – Run Oracle up to 3X faster

– FAST VP– Improve Oracle performance by 44% with lower costs

• Outstanding Replication– Replication Manager, RecoverPoint – Recover in

Minutes, not Days

• Industry Leading Virtualization

• Flawless Data Protection – EMC Backup and Recovery Systems


The Backdrop for Data Protection Explosive data growth

• Typically represents a factor of 4 to 30 times production capacity

• Daily, weekly, and monthly full backups kept for months or years


Oracle Backup and Recovery Challenges• Managing capacity required to store many copies of

Oracle backups– Typically 10-20x amount of source data

• Recovery from tape– Cumbersome and operationally intensive

• Protecting archive logs– Backups monopolize tape infrastructure

• Enabling disaster recovery (DR)– Massive bandwidth required across WAN , especially for large

database backups


Transforming Your Oracle Backup Environment

WAN

Retain longerKeep backups onsite longer with less disk for fast, reliable restores, and eliminate the use of tape for operational recovery.

Replicate smarter Move only deduplicated data over existing networks for up to 99% bandwidth efficiency and cost-effective DR.

Recover reliablyContinuous fault-detection and self-healing ensure data recoverability to meet SLAs.

Deduplication enables weeks or months of full backups to be stored in about the same space required for a single backup on traditional disk

environment refresh

RMAN backups are replicated automatically using minimal bandwidth

Data Domain Deduplication Storage

• Simplifies the backup process

– RMAN disk-only backup and recovery strategies are more straightforward

• Leverages Oracle Enterprise Manager

– GUI for managing backups, restore points, creating backup reports, etc

• Supports other Oracle backup capabilities

– Incremental merge– Flash Recovery

• Backup application associates policies to RMAN jobs and manages schedules, retention, etc.

• Enhanced media management to accommodate copy to tape

• Wizard-driven configuration and canned scripts

• Facilitates managing different retention levels on disk and tape

EMC Data DomainRMAN integration with third-party backup

Qualified with the most widely used third-party backup applications


Data Domain Impact in Oracle EnvironmentsCN Rail – A large Canadian freight railroad

• RMAN to NFS mounts on replicated EMC Data Domain systems

• 4 week retention schedule

– 10% average daily change rate, archive logs backed up hourly

• All database backups replicated to SunGard
