Designing, implementing, and maintaining a distributed environment with Oracle Streams Oracle Streams Implement to manage and coordinate resources, information, and the functions of distributed systems Get to grips with detailed explanations of the components that make up Oracle Streams, and how they work together Learn design considerations help identify and avoid obstacles Oracle Streams - before you get stuck in it Covers the implementation of these steps with an explanation of 'why' and 'how' In Detail From small businesses to large enterprises - users around the world often require access to data 24 hours a day. This book provides readers with a solid technique to master the technology of Oracle Streams and successfully deploy a distributed database system. The book is fast walking on the basics and get you up and running with a simple environment Oracle 11g Streams. It is intended for Oracle database architects and administrators, and provides in-depth discussion about the must-know information for the design, implementation, and maintenance of Oracle Streams environment. This book does not attempt to regurgitate all the information in the Oracle Streams Administration Guide, but provides additional clarification and explanation of the design, implementation, and problem solving that is often elusive concept in the documentation Streaming. When you have learned the techniques and completing hands-on examples, you will have an understanding of core concepts of Oracle Streams' and functional which will allow you to successfully design, implement, and maintain Oracle environments streaming. What you will learn from this book Obviously, a brief explanation of the components of Oracle Streams and consideration Up-front design concepts and techniques - know what you need before you begin building good Configuring Source and Target databases to support the Streams capture, propagation, and apply the Single-Source Configuration Set using Enterprise manager DB Console to divert the flow in one direction and apply the concepts to master-multi-, or N-Way Replication environment configuration Streams solidify your concept through the example of the basic application which can then be applied to more complex systems Learn about the popular advanced features including Oracle Streams Subsetting, Tags, Rules, and rule-based transformation Discover effective problem solving techniques and efficient and tools Approach This book has a tutorial approach that provides a good explanation of the theoretical and practical step-by-step examples using familiar Oracle demo schema. The authors have combined their experience working with customers on Oracle Support, Oracle training and education, and consulting the Oracle, to identify the most common areas of confusion and misinterpretation that experienced by users of Oracle Streams. Who is this book written for This book is for users who have implemented, or will soon implement a distributed database environment using Oracle Streams replication. Readers are expected to have an understanding of Oracle database technology. This book is primarily intended for use by: Oracle Database is responsible for the implementation and maintenance of environmental flows Oracle Database Systems and the architect responsible for the design of distributed database environment using Oracle Streams Administrator Readers with limited knowledge base of Oracle database technology can benefit from Chapter 1 and 2, which includes Oracle Streams Components and Design Considerations.
