Oracle Consulting Services |
Version Next can assist you whether you're implementing the latest in technology
or proven technology that is simply new to your company's environment. Some of
the general areas that we service are:
Architecture and design is truly at the centre of the Version Next offering.
Whether it's for a self-contained business function-level application or an
enterprise wide system, everyone knows it's extremely difficult to recover from
poor or inappropriate design. Version Next can ensure that the most critical
phase of systems development is done right.
Time-critical troubleshooting is often handled through our Managed Services
group, which in that respect can be viewed as somewhat of an insurance policy --
ensuring that skilled DBAs, who are knowledgeable with your system, are readily
available to put out a fire if it occurs. However, we have been known to take on
fire fighting assignments outside of our Managed Services group -- our
instinctive response is, to help.
High availability and scalability Oracle9i Real Application Clusters (RAC) ,
Oracle Data Guard and Oracle Database 10G are cost-effective technologies
designed to ensure maximum uptime for a company's mission-critical systems,
while also ensuring they can easily scale to handle increased future workload.
When correctly architected and implemented, this technology is solid and
reliable – Version Next expert DBAs have the experience necessary to ensure
success.
Performance and application tuning Version Next expert DBAs routinely perform
miracles, or what is perceived as miracles. Whether it's a quick fix (instance
hero) or complex brainteaser, our DBAs thrive on the feeling of accomplishment
when finding the problem and then creating a finely tuned environment.
Database migrations These are best handled by experts on the platform being
"migrated to." Whether companies are dealing with inherited systems (through
mergers or acquisitions), old legacy systems or a consolidation of multiple
platforms, they often do not have the skilled resources available to properly
architect a new environment. Version Next brings those skills to the table, not
only with Oracle Database expertise, but also with a working knowledge of many
of the most common source database and file systems.
Database Security Enhancements: In today�s networked world, there is an
increased dependence on web-enabled information systems, making database
security enhancements highly critical. You might have implemented security at
the corporate level, comprising of security appliances, software, secure
networks, etc. However, to further safeguard your data, you need Security
Enhancements to be incorporated into your Oracle Database.
1.We help you design / audit database security guidelines
2. We train your database administrators to follow security guidelines
3. We ensure that the latest database security patches are tested and applied
Oracle 10g Database Enterprise Edition
Oracle Database 10g is the industry's first database designed for grid
computing. Low entry-level pricing makes Oracle the best choice for large
enterprises and small to midsize businesses alike, with a variety of editions to
choose from.
Industry-leading scalability, reliability and security
Oracle Database Enterprise Edition offers industry-leading scalability and
reliability in clustered as well as single-system configurations. It provides
comprehensive features for online transaction processing (OLTP) and business
intelligence and delivers the lowest total cost of ownership.
Enterprise Edition includes:• Continuous availability
despite system failures, site failures, human errors, and planned maintenance
• State-of-the-art security features that address rapidly emerging requirements
in the areas of privacy, regulatory compliance, and data consolidation,
including Virtual Private Database, Fine Grained Auditing, and database
encryption
• High-performance business intelligence capabilities such as ETL, data
warehousing, online analytic processing (OLAP), and data mining
Oracle Database Enterprise Edition delivers record-breaking performance and
scalability on systems from small departmental servers running Windows or Linux
to the largest UNIX servers and mainframes. And Oracle is the only database to
have successfully completed 19 independent security evaluations.Oracle Database High
Availability
Your business needs to be online 24x7, 365 days a year. If critical
applications, servers, or data become unavailable, your entire business might be
jeopardized. Lost revenue, dissatisfied customers, penalties, and negative press
will have a lasting effect on your organization's reputation. Keep your business
online with Oracle Database 10g’s high availability features that address all
common causes of system downtime.Get Protection from System
Failures
System failure occurs when servers unexpectedly fail, causing service
interruptions. Oracle Real Application Clusters lets you build highly available,
scalable database servers across multiple systems. Guard Against Data Failure
and Disaster
Oracle provides an extensive Data Protection and Disaster Recovery solutions
portfolio configurable to suit all individual business needs.Recover from Human Error
Human error is among the leading causes of downtime. Oracle Database
includes powerful, easy to use Flashback technology to quickly diagnose and
recover from human error. Avoid Planned Downtime
Oracle Database 10g is specifically engineered to minimize planned
interruptions.
Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC)
Oracle 10g Real Application Clusters allows customers to increase reliability
and scale out (horizontally scale) on-demand by simply adding low-cost Linux
(Windows) servers to their cluster. Customers save significant costs by scaling
out on low cost commodity Intel servers and can run all applications (packaged
and homegrown) with zero code modification. Your clusters act just like a
single-server, so you can consolidate all your disparate systems into one
reliable and manageable system.Why Oracle RAC
• Eliminate server downtime. (Availability)
• Run your enterprise on Linux to reduce costs. (Linux)
• Consolidate your disparate servers to reduce costs. (Consolidation)
• Pay as you grow - Eliminate major server upgrade expenses. (Scalability) Oracle 10g Database Standard

database directly, or can be easily consolidated with Oracle HTML DB.Data guard
To stay in business today, a company needs to maintain operations during and
after a disaster. Many enterprises rely on Oracle technology, Oracle Data Guard,
to build systems that recover quickly from failure while protecting critical
data. Prior to implementing Oracle9i Real Application Clusters [RAC] and Oracle
Data Guard, recovery from failures took between two and three days.
Now, a new outsourcing program from Oracle, called Oracle Disaster Recovery
Outsourcing, can help companies of all sizes establish and manage safe and
secure disaster recovery operations. In the event of a disaster, Oracle will
recover and activate production data and applications in as little as two hours
at Oracle's secondary site. It's the first service of its kind to combine
application and data synchronization and implement Maximum Availability
Architecture, providing consistent service levels at both primary and secondary
sites.
Oracle Data Guard, a built-in feature of Oracle9i Database Enterprise Edition,
creates, maintains, manages, and monitors one or more standby databases to
protect enterprise data from failures, disasters, errors, and corruptions.
Data Guard maintains these standby databases as transaction ally consistent
copies of the production database, so if the production database becomes
unavailable because of a planned or unplanned outage, Data Guard can switch any
standby database to the production role, minimizing downtime and preventing any
data loss.
"Oracle Data Guard is simply the best disaster-recovery and data-protection
technology in the industry," says Juan Loaiza, vice president of Oracle's System
Technology Group. "It is unmatched in its ability to provide complete data
protection while using the least amount of network resources. Add to that the
ability to run queries on the standby, and no other solution comes close. When
combined with Oracle9i RAC to ensure rapid recovery from system failures, Data
Guard provides the foundation for an infrastructure that can tolerate any
failure."
