Agenda

• Backup & Recovery Fundamentals• Oracle Backup Tools• Backup Strategies for Exadata

2/17/2012

4

• Data loss exposure­ ESG estimates that 1 in 7 (14%) backups and 1 in 6 (17%)

restores fail.* • Meeting SLA’s

­ Shrinking backup windows; slow recovery processes.• Reducing costs

­ Reducing both CAPEX & OPEX while improving staff efficiency.• Complexity

­ Complexity of BU&R process and the storage environment.• Data growth

­ Compounding year over year.

Fundamental Data ProtectionRule of 3

• 1st Line of Defense (Applications, Systems)– Typically data deletion, logical corruption or a virus– Look at the RPO. The majority of critical application recovery is likely to

come from the snapshot on the same tier of storage• 2nd Line of Defense (Building, Site, Region)

– HW failure & Disaster Recovery - failover to a remote site– Circumstances will dictate whether it should be disk and/or tape– Remote disk mirroring provides a physical copy of the data, but does not

provide logical data protection (it replicates corruption immediately!)• Last Line of Defense – TAPE!

– The last chance to avoid permanent data loss– Data preservation much more important than recovery time

“3 Copies of the Data on 2 different medias with 1 offsite”

Exa-Backup with ExadataUsing additional Storage Cells - Highest Performance

• Requirements for immediate data restore capabilities and reduced backup windows

• Primarily data protection against user/logical errors (Flashback)

• Allocate additional 2TB HDD Exadata Storage Servers for a dedicated Fast Recovery Area

• Additional Exadata Storage Servers must be installed in another rack

• External backup still recommended

Some performance numbersDisk and Tape• Exadata for the most demanding RPO/RTO

– Backup up to 18TB/hr (full rack), 20-50TB/hr for incrementals– Restore 18-24 TB/hr (full rack)

• ZFS Storage Appliance Beats NetApp and EMC Data Domain!– Over 3x the backup throughput of NetApp– Up to 1.3x the restore throughput of NetApp– Over 3x the backup throughput of Data Domain– Over 3x the restore throughput of Data Domain

• T10000C and Oracle Storagetek Libraries beat IBM !– T1000C 25% greater capacity, 33% lower TCO, and 50% less
