Maximize Oracle Database uptime with proven failover clustering across multiple cloud availability zones.

Better uptime for Oracle Database on Azure. Avoid fatal architecture flaws when you design HA with Data Guard.

The current set of Oracle MAA blueprints is lacking the Multi-AZ clustering architecture. This is not surprising. The concept of Availability Zones did not exist in the traditional on-premises architectures, while Oracle Cloud (and by extension the Oracle Database @ AWS/Azure/Google Cloud offerings) do not have the capability for Multi-AZ clustering. On the other hand, competing solutions, such as Amazon Aurora, leverage Multi-AZ database clustering to its fullest (even though they lack the unique active-active clustering capabilities that Oracle RAC boasts). In this article we compare the Multi-AZ clustering architecture to other architectures and will discuss its unique benefits specifically for Oracle databases on AWS, Azure, and Google Clouds. #oracledatabase #oraclemaa #oraclerac #oraclecloud #aws #azure #googlecloud

Inter-Zone Latencies in Google Cloud: Learn how to minimize Oracle RAC Interconnect Latency with Multi-Zone Database Clustering When designing a highly available Oracle RAC deployment on Google Cloud, distributing database nodes across multiple zones (a.k.a. Availability Zones or AZs) is one of the most effective ways to protect against infrastructure failures while maintaining continuous database availability. However, not all zone combinations are equal. FlashGrid has measured network latencies between zones across Google Cloud regions and found that selecting the optimal zone combination can significantly reduce Oracle RAC interconnect latency, improving both performance and storage synchronization efficiency.
