Live Online Oracle RAC (Real Application Cluster) Training Course
Live online, instructor-led · next cohort Nov 9, 2026 · from USD 1,700
When a core banking, billing or ERP database goes down, every minute of outage costs revenue and customer trust. Clustering lets several servers run one database so that work continues if a node fails and capacity can grow with demand. You begin with cluster architecture, Cache Fusion, the private interconnect, shared storage and voting disks, then install and configure Oracle Grid Infrastructure, Clusterware and Automatic Storage Management. Administration sessions cover creating a clustered database, managing instances, redo threads and undo, and using srvctl and crsctl.
Design and structuring modules address services, workload management, connection load balancing and Transparent Application Failover. You then work through backup and recovery with RMAN, rolling patches, adding and removing nodes, and diagnosing interconnect and global cache waits with AWR and ADDM. Labs on a multi-node environment let you break, troubleshoot and repair a cluster safely. Oracle DBAs, infrastructure engineers and system administrators supporting mission-critical databases are the expected participants. You leave able to build, operate and tune a high-availability cluster and to plan maintenance without taking services offline.

About this course
The Oracle RAC (Real Application Cluster) Training Course is designed for professionals who need practical, current command of oracle RAC (real application cluster) and the ability to translate it into measurable organizational results. As expectations around accountability, efficiency and demonstrable results continue to rise, organizations increasingly depend on staff who can apply structured approaches rather than improvise. This certified programme combines proven methodology with hands-on application, covering design and structuring, analysis and interpretation and the analytical techniques that underpin sound professional judgement.
Throughout the programme, participants work through realistic scenarios drawn from technology organizations, digital transformation programmes, data-driven enterprises, and public sector IT environments, examining how oracle RAC (real application cluster) is applied in practice and where it most often breaks down. Delegates will develop practical skill in designing appropriate frameworks, selecting and applying the right tools for design and structuring, interpreting findings, and communicating conclusions clearly to colleagues, management and external stakeholders. Sessions move deliberately from principles to application, so that each technique introduced is practised against a realistic problem before the programme moves on — strengthening both individual effectiveness and the wider capability of the organizations delegates return to.
Training Objectives
Upon completion of this training course, participants will be able to:
- Design scalable Oracle RAC database architectures for enterprise environments
- Analyze cluster performance and workload distribution strategies effectively
- Implement Oracle RAC installation, configuration, and administration techniques
- Evaluate high-availability and disaster recovery frameworks within clustered systems
- Apply Oracle RAC monitoring, security, and optimization methodologies
- Develop resilient clustered database solutions for mission-critical applications
- Enhance operational continuity through fault-tolerant database infrastructures
