Oracle Database Administration Professional (1Z0-083)

Course Description

Prepare to pass exam: oracle-database-administration

A 2019 Oracle Database Administration Certified Professional possesses the theoretical knowledge and real-world expertise needed to configure and administer Oracle databases, including Oracle 19c. By passing the second test in a two-test sequence, you will have demonstrated your proficiency in SQL programming, installation, upgrades, patching, database and network administration, backup, and recovery. Additionally, this worker exhibits fluency with a few advanced abilities, like problem identification, SQL performance monitoring, and multi-tenant.

To pass the Oracle Database Administration II (1Z0-083) exam, focus on mastering advanced database management topics such as backup and recovery, performance tuning, database security, and Oracle Data Guard. Key areas include configuring and using RMAN for backups and recovery, handling media failures, and utilizing advanced features like Flashback technologies. Performance tuning is crucial, with emphasis on tools such as Automatic Workload Repository (AWR) and Automatic Database Diagnostic Monitor (ADDM) for optimizing database operations. The exam also covers multi-tenant architecture, requiring knowledge of managing container databases (CDBs) and pluggable databases (PDBs), as well as patching and upgrading databases.
