Oracle on-prem

Most of the Oracle world still lives in the data center: installations, quarterly patches, tuning and licensing under control.

01 · What it is

Ambienti Oracle on-premises, made clear.

Anything but nostalgia: most Oracle databases still run on-premises, on Linux and on IBM Power (AIX). Our craft is keeping them healthy: quarterly Critical Patch Updates, verified RMAN backups, Data Guard standbys, tuning and — the scary chapter — licensing governed before the audit arrives.

The DBA service, as a process

Patching without downtime

CPUs/RUs applied on standbys and switchovers: security without downtime.

Version upgrades

19c → 23ai planned with AutoUpgrade and rehearsals: the leap without a net is for trapeze artists only.

Performance flushed out

AWRs actually read, heavy SQL and waits understood: the database fast over the years.

Preventive licensing

Options switched on by mistake, virtualization and cores: the map that avoids disputes.

03 · In depth

Licensing and healthy on-prem architectures

On-prem Oracle plays out on editions (EE with the options, SE2 with its limits), metrics (processor with core factor, NUP with the minimums) and architectures: multitenant (3 free PDBs from 19c/21c+), Data Guard for DR, RMAN for backups, quarterly patching (RU) to industrialize. Virtualization must be handled: Oracle's partitioning policies on VMware require design, not improvisation.

  • EE vs SE2 — the options (RAC, ADG, partitioning) only on EE: the choice weighs on TCO
  • Core factor — 0.5 on x86: cores counted right, surprises avoided
  • Multitenant — 3 PDBs included: the free consolidation few use
  • RU trimestrali — patching as a process: n-1 maximum lag, always
  • RMAN + catalogo — backups verified with rehearsed restores: the copy that works
  • VMware & licensing — host affinity and dedicated clusters: compliance by design
