Key Features About the Author Table of Contents

Intended for Database Administrators, System Administrators, Technologists and Technology Consultants, this book covers all basic concepts through proven best practices for successfully implementing Oracle databases on virtualized hardware using VMware – including virtualized Real Application Clusters. To help put those concepts to work in reality, this book provides a broad spectrum of technological recommendations, which should inform the savvy reader on how to reliably and consistently achieve optimal configuration and maximum performance for any virtualized Oracle database scenario. Moreover many of these concepts and techniques can be generically and liberally applied to other virtualization technologies.



Virtualization has arrived as a truly disruptive and increasingly pervasive technology in today's data centers - with VMware as the market leader. It’s been truly disruptive in nature by totally altering the approach to servers – from sizing and ordering, to deployment and maintenance. It’s become pervasive because not only does it provide for better resource management – but it’s green to boot. The days of stand-alone servers, even database servers, are truly numbered.

Oracle has always been the premier enterprise database server – but historically, one’s Oracle databases tended to reside on dedicated hosts. But times have changed – and now these two great technologies are being increasingly utilized together. Thus the complexities of designing, configuring, maintaining and tuning Oracle database deployments has risen to a new level of challenge. This book offers a comprehensive reference for successfully meeting the challenges of combining VMware and Oracle – with real world examples and highly applicable advice.

For Oracle DBA’s tasked with managing virtualized databases, this book will become the primary reference. While the Oracle manuals and numerous other books out there cover the database technology, nowhere else will you find a complete compendium for keeping your virtualized Oracle databases in top form.

Key Features

  • Learn recommended Oracle "best practices" for virtualized servers
  • Discover suggested visualized server configuration as a database server
  • Recommendations for "client OS" configuration for Oracle in a virtualized world
  • Advice for consistently achieving optimal configuration and maximum performance
