High Availability from Jaggy - ensuring business continuity

User productivity is paramount for any business, and with Oracle technologies more robust than ever, there is no reason why man-hours need to be lost due to server crashes, or application error.

Many core business operations can be critically affected by loss of IT services, including:

Business interruption

Error messages and system failures

Transaction Loss

Delays affecting customers, suppliers and employees

Oracle MAA (Maximum Availability Architecture) is Oracle's best practices blueprint based on proven high availability and recommendations. The goal of MAA is to achieve the optimal high availability architecture at the lowest cost and complexity. MAA best practices span across Oracle Database, Oracle Application Server, Oracle Applications and Grid Control.

Oracle RAC (Real Application Clustering)
If you are using Oracle databases, and you aren't already working with Oracle Real Application Cluster (RAC) databases, it's likely only a matter of time before you are. Oracle RAC databases can be used as a platform to provide scalability and high availability for Oracle databases, and this technology is being widely adopted as recent versions have demonstrated that Oracle delivers on these promises.

Oracle Data Guard
Oracle's Data Guard technology, formerly called Standby database in previous versions, provides a rolling copy of your production database.

The standby database is started in read-only mode, constantly receiving change data, sent over from the production database, keeping it always in sync at all times, and at most only a few minutes behind. Were the production server to fail, that server could take over in less than the time the DNS change or IP swap would take. What's more the standby copy can be at another datacenter, or on another continent!

No Database project is too small or too large. We have done one and two-day performance tuning projects, as well as long-term DBA contracts for major clients. If you have a performance issue you just can't figure out, or have a long term requirement to support and manage your environment, give us a call, we can support you!
