Business Drivers and Challenges
Why Organizations are focused on Disaster Recovery
• Increasing sensitivity to downtime and data loss
• Due to the cost of downtime, recovering in 48 to 72 hours and losing 8 hours or
more of critical corporate information is no longer acceptable
• Companies now measure recovery time and recovery point requirements in
hours, and in some cases, minutes
• DR has expanded to ensure comprehensive IT service continuity
• Disasters are not rare because most are caused by mundane events such as
power failures, IT failures, human error, and localized flooding
• Increasing pressure from internal and external stakeholders
• Board members, auditors, regulatory agencies,
strategic partners, and customers demand proof
of DR preparedness
• DR preparedness is now considered a fiduciary
responsibility between an organization and
its stakeholders

Business Drivers and Challenges
Why Organizations are Focused on Database Development
and Test

• Increasing requirement to speed database application development
• Application patch releases, upgrades, and custom app development drive dev/test
work requiring deployment of new app’s in less time.
• Need to efficiently duplicate large mission critical databases to
support continuous demands for application development and test
• Multiple clones are often required for each production database in order to support
the many development and test activities associated with large production systems
• It is also important that the cloning process have zero impact to the production
database
• In many organizations, for every production OLTP database, there are
several development and test databases

Adding Value to DataGuard DR Copies
Accelerate Application Deployment with a Cost-Effective
Platform for Development, Test, and Quality Assurance

• Oracle Data Guard provides high availability and disaster protection
for mission-critical Oracle databases
• Multiple database clones are often required to support development
and test associated with large production systems
• Adding a Sun ZFS Storage Appliance to an Oracle Data Guard
configuration provides a low-cost solution for snapshots and clones
• No new licenses required for Enterprise Edition customers
• Tested, validated, and supported by Oracle

Oracle Fusion Middleware
• Oracle Fusion Middleware (FMW) is the foundation for the Oracle
application infrastructure, which enables business applications to be
created and run efficiently across the enterprise

• Oracle's FMW disaster recovery solution protects the infrastructure and
provides business continuity during a planned or unplanned event

DR for Fusion Middleware with ZFS Storage
Appliance

• The ZFS Storage Appliance compliments the DR capabilities of
Data Guard for the Oracle Database
• The ZFS Storage Appliance easily administers replication for
Fusion Middleware data stored outside of the Oracle Database
• Hardware and Software
• Engineered to Work together
• Tested, validated, and supported by Oracle

The Sun ZFS Storage Appliance

• Combines multiple protocol connectivity, data services for business
continuity, and ease of management into a single appliance
• Comes with a license-free model for all protocols and data services
Remote replication, snapshots and cloning enable complete disaster
recovery (DR) and business continuity
• Remote Replication
Data is replicated from the primary to the standby site, with data
blocks asynchronously streamed to the remote storage appliance
Scheduled Replication - The user can define a schedule for the
replication to occur automatically
Continuous Replication - The replication process
happens continuously without intervention

Solution Description
• The ZFS Storage is simply added to the customer’s existing
environment
• Shell scripts automate and coordinate ZFS Storage and Data Guard
failover and failback

Oracle Maximum Availability Architecture MAA Best
Practices for Oracle FMW DR Configuration and
Deployment
• Use Sun ZFS Storage Appliance to replicate all non-database content to
ensure brief RTO and aggressive RPO for the Oracle Fusion Middleware
environment
• For high availability, deploy clustered Sun ZFS Storage Appliances
• NFS protocol is preferred for the FMW deployments for the ease of
deployment and maintenance
• Store all the non-database FMW infrastructure within a project and
replicate the project

Oracle Maximum Availability Architecture MAA Best
Practices for Oracle FMW DR Configuration and
Deployment
• Use the Scheduled mode of replication for a typical Oracle FMW DR
deployment
• Use the Continuous mode of replication if the standby site is required to be
up-to-date irrespective of whatever the rate of change at the primary site
• Snapshots and clones can be used at the target site to offload backup,
test, and development types of environment
• Configure Oracle Data Guard with the “Maximum Availability” option, to
enable the standby database to be almost synchronized with the primary

DR for Fusion Middleware with ZFS Storage Appliance
Benefits

Savings Save tens of thousands of $ on data services

Simplicity Automated and coordinated with Data Guard

Protect the whole business process
Reduced Risk
Tested, validated, and supported by Oracle

Savings
• All data services (snaps, clones, replication, compression, thin
provisioning, etc.) are included in the ZFS Storage Appliance at no cost
• With Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition, no additional database
software licenses are required
• High capacity disk drives in a densely populated configuration enable a
low cost solution with a small footprint and lower energy costs
• ZFS data compression improves storage efficiency and thus reduce
capital expenditures by reducing storage capacity requirements

1/3 lower TCO than
EMC and NetApp

Simplicity
• The intuitive BUI management interface and simplified administrative
procedures reduce operations costs by reducing administration time
• Predefined scripts automate and coordinate the process between ZFS
Storage Appliance and Data Guard further simplifying management of
the DR environment

more efficiently than a comparable NetApp system
• 34% less time required to provision and configure the storage
and its connectivity
• 31% less time for maintenance and typical configuration changes
• 44% less time spent troubleshooting

Simplicity
• Having too many vendors on hand can dramatically
increase cost of management and reduce overall
environment efficiency
