Installation and configuration sessions cover installing the software, creating a database with DBCA, configuring the listener and network services, and starting and shutting down instances. Storage management then explains tablespaces, segments, extents, undo and temporary space.
Security sessions cover user accounts, profiles, privileges, roles and auditing, while data movement topics introduce Data Pump and SQL*Loader. Backup and recovery are covered in depth with RMAN, archivelog mode, flashback and restoring after common failure scenarios. Monitoring and tuning basics use the alert log, AWR, ADDM and automated maintenance tasks. Every module includes hands-on labs on a working database. New and aspiring DBAs, system administrators, developers and support engineers inheriting Oracle systems are the target group. You come away able to install, configure, secure and protect an Oracle database and handle everyday administration with confidence.
