Oracle Database services

Oracle databases, designed well and run reliably.

Installation, administration, performance, security, availability, and recovery for Oracle Database, handled by engineers who also understand the operating system, storage, and network it depends on.

Discuss your environment See what we cover
Oracle Database availability architecture Applications connect to a primary Oracle database that replicates to a standby database. The primary is backed up to encrypted, offsite-capable storage, and monitoring covers both databases. APPLICATIONS AND USERS Primary read / write Standby synchronized replication Backups encrypted offsite copies Monitoring High availability and recovery designed together
A primary database replicating to a standby, with encrypted backups and monitoring designed alongside it.

Database infrastructure

A database needs care beyond its original design.

Running an Oracle database well takes ongoing attention. Over time, requirements move past the original scope: I/O throughput, storage, and security needs all change. InfoSapient reviews your configuration and gives clear guidance on adapting it as requirements change.

We treat the database as one component of a larger system. Dependencies on the operating system and storage, workload patterns, performance constraints, security controls, operational procedures, and business continuity requirements all shape how a database should be built and run. That full-stack view is often where the cause of a slow query or an unstable environment is found.

What we cover

The full database lifecycle, from build to upgrade.

Engage us for one area, such as tuning or a licensing review, or for ongoing responsibility across all four.

Build

Design and deploy databases that fit the workload.

Infrastructure architecture
Compute, storage, and I/O sized for the workload and its expected growth.
Installation and deployment
Consistent, documented builds on Oracle Linux, on-premises or in the cloud.

Operate

Keep databases healthy and performing day to day.

Monitoring and maintenance
Monitoring that tracks database health and performance, with corrective action when performance suffers and automated scheduling of maintenance tasks.
Performance tuning
Tuning of memory allocation, buffer cache, I/O settings, and SQL to identify bottlenecks and resolve them.

Protect

Secure the data and keep it available.

Database security
Security at each level of the stack, from encryption in flight and at rest to least-privilege access policies.
High availability
Solutions that reduce downtime and keep essential services accessible, limiting the impact on business productivity.
Backup and disaster recovery
Recovery built on technologies that integrate directly with Oracle Database, to minimize downtime and protect business continuity.

Evolve

Plan change and keep costs under control.

Upgrades and patching
Planned upgrades and patches, tested ahead of time and prepared for rollback.
Licensing analysis and optimization
A review of your licensing position, with design options that can reduce what you need to license.

Licensing

Oracle licensing is complex. Design choices change what you pay.

Oracle licensing is difficult to navigate, and organizations face the risk of a license audit. InfoSapient reviews your licensing conditions and advises on how to reduce licensing requirements.

Because processor counts, virtualization, and consolidation all affect what must be licensed, licensing is considered as part of the architecture rather than after it.
