* Database Track Lead for ODTUGs KSCOPE * Lead author and co-author on couple of books,

latest, Expert Enterprise Manager 12c from Apress O.W.L., (Oracle Without Limits) for RMOUG 2014

* Current hobby is WIT, (Women in Technology) and

* Released June 25th, 2013 to the general public * Loads of new features, Pluggable Database is

the most anticipated and talked about. * Beta program was very successful, ran for over 1 year to test through partners and user groups the features and capabilities of product. * Multi-Tenancy is the new THANGdont forget! * Everything is going the way of the cloud- SaaS, DBaaS, PaaSthen DBAs

* Concept is familiar to MySQL and MSSQL DBAs

as attach/detach with standard system/user database. and most of data dictionary into Container Database, (CDB) containment of databases and lower costs.

* Allows sharing of SGA, background processing * aka multi-tenancy offers high sharing, secure * Allows easy migration of user/pluggable
databases, (PDB) between platforms, releases and systems.

* Shared SGA and PGA * Single set of

Background Processes * All in Container Database * Pluggable databases, plugged in to container database * EM Express Default Installation for Added Support

* Ability for resources to be shared and yet

security and environment to be separate for auditing and processing purposes. offering maximum return on investment.

* Exceptionally valuable when consolidating and * Simplifies administration.

* Oracle System dictionary resides in the

Container Database. * The SGA and PGA global allocation * RAC and Dataguard compatible * CDB Root Namespace * High Consolidation Density by sourcing so much in the CDB! * Where first virtualization and many Oracle Homes created more complexity and upkeep in previous versions of Oracle.

* High Consolidation Density * Rapid Patches and Upgrading * Manage Many Database as One * Advanced and Dynamic Resource Management
of Shared Resources

* Rapid Provisioning and Cloning

* Sealed off from any other PDB and selfcontained.

* Read-only copy of CDB data dictionary * Will use service names over Oracle SID for
connections.

* Pre-12.1 databases can be migrated into PDB * Rman, Dataguard can be at PDB level or CDB
level! PDB has granular control over both.

* Simple unplug method * Database is simple XML output file.

* Plugging in is simple commands/file direction * Simple cloning from one pluggable to another. * Each Pluggable is self-contained * Take extra care when utilizing OMF, (Oracle
Managed Files) Clone Failures can occur with standard clone and creation scripts.

* Migrate to new platform * Migrate to new hardware * Migrate and upgrade to new database release * Move database with ease to new system with
more resources.

* Added enhancement for high availability, as

moving is straight forward.

* CON_ID=0 is for instance level. * CON_ID=1 is for the Container database * CON_ID=2 is for the seed database * CON_ID>1 is for pluggables

* One word:

CON_ID Select name, con_id from v$active_services where con_id !=1;

* Utilize many of your same queries, but add into

where clause, CON_ID=<con_id for PDB>; using the v$/GV$ views

* ALTER SESSION SET CONTAINER = pgtst12c2; * Show statements:

* And once you have altered your session-

Same V$ query youd use to look at datafiles in previous versions, just added the con_id to the where clause!

* These replace the DBA Views when you move from

single instance to Pluggable database. your DBA with CDB:

* Easily replaced, comfortable scripting, just replace

* Yes, there are over 900 new CDB views * Two PDB views at Container level

* All data is shown with subcategory of what PDB

derived from in main AWR report.

* This includes Datafiles and Objects

* Top Container

* Very little data broken down by PDB at this

time:

* Marketed as replacement for DB Console * Available to PDBs post configuration of the DBMS

package (DBMS_XDB_CONFIG.SETHTTPPORT). * High performance tools available with no overhead to database. * Great tool to grant to developers if you arent willing to grant access to EM12c. * Has own entry in listener.ora, (yes listener must be running to connect) * Uses FlashPlayer currently, but will be rewritten soon!

* Virtualbox has a lot of support from Oracle * VMWare is the most trusted.

* Images easy to locate. * Shortcuts can save you a lot of time.

* Call for Abstracts are Open! * Best Grass-roots Conference in the US!! * February in Denver, CO.
