Zero Data Loss Recovery Appliance

Oracle’s Zero Data Loss Recovery Appliance (Recovery Appliance) is a ground-breaking data protection solution that tightly integrates with the Oracle Database in order to address these requirements head-on. It eliminates data loss exposure and dramatically reduces data protection overhead on production servers. In addition, the Recovery Appliance scales to protect thousands of databases, ensures end-to-end data validation, and implements full life cycle protection, including disk backup, tape backup, and remote replication. Also, as with any other Engineered System with Oracle Platinum Services, you maximize the availability and performance of the Recovery Appliances with 24/7 remote fault monitoring, industry-leading response times, and patch deployment services—at no additional cost.

Oracle’s Zero Data Loss Recovery Appliance tightly integrates with the new Recovery Appliance specific capabilities in the Oracle Database and the Recovery Manager (RMAN) backup tool to provide data protection capabilities and performance that are not possible with any other data protection solution.

The principal design goal for the Recovery Appliance is to eliminate the loss of critical database data that is still possible by using existing data protection solutions.

The second design goal for the Recovery Appliance is to reduce backup-related processing on production database systems to the absolute minimum, transmitting only the changed data. With unnecessary backup processing eliminated, production systems can now focus on their primary goal of serving business-critical workloads.

The third design goal for the Recovery Appliance is to provide a cloud-scale database protection service for tens to thousands of databases in a data center.

Archiving to tape and replicating data to a remote recovery appliance are possible optional configurations.
