Incorporate key components into your D/R strategy.
Benefits to You
Maximize Cloud Resources
By taking this course, you'll learn the tools and processes to accelerate your private cloud deployments and redeploy
resources effectively. Server virtualization is the first step to delivery of application and cloud services. In your Oracle
VM environment, you have the ability to deploy and redeploy standardized and pre-configured software appliances to
meet workload objectives and to redistribute physical and virtual resources to maximize resources for your application
workload.
Increase Application Availability
Virtual environments introduce challenges for isolating and solving problems. Taking this course will teach you how to
detect problems at every layer of the Oracle VM environment, while capturing a configuration snapshot of your
environment before making changes. This is an effective way to communicate vital information about your environment
to Oracle support.
Protect Cloud Resources
This course will also help you develop the knowledge and skills learn to identify the resources that you must protect.
You'll develop an understanding of the steps to back up and recover these resources. Expert Oracle University
instructors will help you explore environment-wide recovery scenarios and gain knowledge you can use as a blueprint
for your disaster recovery strategy.
