  1. Oracle Continuous Availability – Technical Overview November 2013

  2. Agenda • Solution overview and architecture • Solution components and configuration • EMC VPLEX Metro • EMC RecoverPoint • Oracle database • Brocade network • EMC storage • Testing and validation • Summary and conclusion

  3. Mission-Critical Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery for Oracle • High Availability: Active/active data centers with zero RPOs and RTOs • Disaster Recovery: Cost-effective DR for active/active data centers with point-in-time data recovery at a third, remote site • VPLEX • 24/7 application availability • Simplified high availability management • Automatic failure handling & load balancing • Zero downtime maintenance • Simplified deployment of Oracle RAC on Extended Distance Clusters • Protection for multiple databases or application files as a unit with consistency groups • Increased infrastructure utilization • VPLEX with RecoverPoint • Maximizes available points in time (PITs) for disaster recovery • Integrated RecoverPoint splitter • Continuous data protection (CDP) • Continuous remote replication (CRR) • Continuous local and remote replication (CLR) • On-demand protection and recovery to any point in time

  4. Mission-Critical Business Continuityand Disaster Recovery – The Journey • Journey to High Availability with Disaster Recovery • Oracle RAC • Oracle Extended RAC enabled by VPLEX Metro • VPLEX Metro with RecoverPoint continuous remote replication

  5. Solution Components • Combination of EMC, Oracle, and Brocade technologies deliver: • Mission-critical business continuity for Oracle • Continuous remote replication (CRR) for Oracle • Solution components include: • EMC VPLEX Metro • EMC VPLEX Witness • EMC RecoverPoint • EMC Symmetrix VMAX and EMC VNX • EMC PowerPath • Oracle RAC on Extended Distance Clusters • Brocade MLXe core routers • Brocade VDX 6720 in VCS mode • Brocade DCX 8510 Backbones • Brocade 5100 switches

  6. Solution Architecture (VPLEX with Oracle Extended RAC)

  7. Solution Architecture(VPLEX Metro with RecoverPoint)

  8. VPLEX Metro Configuration • VPLEX logical structures • Consistency group • Virtual volume • Distributed device • Device • Extent • Storage volume

  9. Logical Relationship Between VPLEX and RecoverPoint Components

  10. RecoverPoint Configuration ReplicationVPLEX to VMAX 10K

  11. RecoverPoint CRR Data Flow (Asynchronous)

  12. Administering RecoverPoint with Unisphere for VPLEX

  13. Oracle Database Architecture • Oracle components • Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Enterprise Edition • Oracle ASM • Oracle Clusterware • Oracle Extended RAC over VPLEX • Simplified management • Hosts connect only to their local VPLEX cluster • Hosts send I/O only once to the local cluster – dual writes not required • No need to deploy Oracle voting disk and Clusterware on a third site • Eliminates costly host CPU cycles consumed by host-based mirroring • Protects multiple databases and/or applications as a unit

  14. RecoverPoint Replication – Overview Tests • Create a bookmark (named snapshot). • Recover database at Site C to bookmarked point in time. • Verify integrity of recovered database. • Fail over production from Site A to Site C. • Update database on Site C (now the production site). • Recover database at Site A to bookmarked point in time. • Verify integrity of recovered database.

  15. RecoverPoint Replication – Pre-Test Status • Site A – Production • VPLEX splitter • Site C – Remote replica • VMAX splitter • CRR Site A to Site C

  16. RecoverPoint Replication – Replica Image Access 2 1 3 • Recover replica image • Create bookmark • Enable image access • Select image • Access enabled for image ‘5000’ 4

  17. RecoverPoint Replication – Failover • Failover • Site A to Site C • Production switched to Site C • Remote CRR from Site C to Site A

  18. Solution Characterization Data

  19.
