Ensuring Performance and Protecting your critical Oracle & SQL
Users now require 24/7 uptime from the database application. The term "five nines" gets used frequently but can you be confident 
that you can deliver 99.999% uptime?
As a DBA, how do you review the requirements of the business and then translate these into technical solutions? How do you evaluate the wide range of products and features that could simplify and automate maintenance functions?
You need tools that reduce maintenance time from hours to minutes or that require no maintenance time at all, while allowing users continued access to the data they need to do their jobs.
Some of the largest UK organisations with the most demand levels of database availability have relied on Alpha to scope, design, install and support solutions to store and protect mission critical databases.

Database Protection
Most database maintenance tasks impact availability. Making backups of data, recovering data, checking data for integrity violations, capturing database statistics, and loading new data into a database can adversely impact availability.
Some products provide built-in features to perform some maintenance tasks while the database is available.
At Alpha we understand that as a DBA you need:
• Regular backups with minimal impact
• Quick restores and full database recovery in minutes, not hours or days
• Hardware platforms that can scale as performance demands are made
• Non-disruptive cloning for test and development
