Systems downtime costs your organisation money. Lost revenue hits the bottom line, but so does reduced productivity, rework & overtime. Disasters can range from someone pulling the wrong plug, to losing part of your network. Your system may only be out for a few minutes but you could feel the effects for hours or days.

e-DBA can work with you in effectively organising a plan to avoid data and service outages as part of your overall database system disaster recovery strategy. e-DBA can advise on the options available to you and, working with you, then implement and test the technology. If you never test the plan how will you know it works?

Reduce Risk and cost

Oracle technologies allow its customers to improve their DR strategy whilst at the same time reducing both risk and cost:

• Faster – Backup more in less time – to disk, tape or active Disaster recovery
• Cheaper – Reduce the space required for backups, DR copies and dedicated disk solutions
• Optimised - Improve recovery time, utilize DR servers for other purposes to reduce load on production
• More efficient – Reduce bandwidth requirements between sites in comparison to other technologies
• Secure – Protect copies of production data on tape, disk and other backup media. Fulfil compliance requirements such as PCI DSS
• Highly available – look to see where Disaster Recovery is being used and High Availability might be more applicable
