Oracle Database Zero Data Loss Autonomous Recovery Service is a fully managed data protection service for Oracle databases running on OCI, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud. Unique, automated capabilities protect Oracle Database changes in real time, validate backups without production database overhead, and enable fast, predictable recovery to any point in time. Low costs based on the amount of data being protected mean that zero data loss resiliency is available to organizations of any size and virtually any budget.
This deployment option lets you provision and manage smaller database workloads and scale as needed while giving you the performance, reliability, and availability of Oracle Exadata Database Service with extremely low minimum infrastructure costs.
Zero data loss database protection enables you to recover protected databases to within less than a second of when an outage or ransomware attack occurred.
Continuous data protection and database-aware recovery validation enable you to reliably meet data protection goals and recover to any point in time.
Automatic database protection and lifecycle management minimize administration time, improve the efficiency of production database services, and help consistently secure critical information.
Co-developed with Oracle Database, Recovery Service is purpose-built to deliver exceptional zero data loss protection and cyber resiliency with fast, reliable recovery your business can count on.
This image entitled “Intelligent Oracle Database protection and cyber-resiliency in the cloud” describes how Oracle Database Zero Data Loss Autonomous Recovery Service delivers unique recovery readiness with real-time transaction protection and end-to-end, database-aware backup integrity validation at every touchpoint as follows:
Validates integrity of incoming backup and redo stream to detect anomalies prior to storing files on disk.
Continuous, multifactor recovery validation for backups at rest:
In addition, Recovery Service automatically replicates backups for increased availability within the cloud region, and the replica independently validates backups.
Recovery Service builds on Oracle Data Guard’s redo transport and Oracle Recovery Manager (RMAN) technologies to provide continuous data protection and recovery validation. The same software that created the backup is used to validate its integrity—without overhead on database servers.
Continually protect your Oracle databases by using real-time data protection on Recovery Service and mitigate the impact of cyberattacks with rapid database recoveries to any point in time.
Automatically protect database transactions as they occur, reducing the recovery point objective to less than one second from 15 minutes to several hours. Fully recover the backup to the point immediately before a cyberattack or other issue compromising your production database.
Consolidate data protection for all databases running on Exadata Database Service, Autonomous Database—Dedicated, Base Database Service, Oracle Database@AWS, Oracle Database@Azure, and Oracle Database@Google Cloud within your OCI compartment or customer tenancy.
Use fewer CPU resources on production database services for backup and recovery processes by offloading database backup validation and other processes to Recovery Service.
Many organizations are required to retain backups for years based on end-of-month, end-of-quarter, or end-of-year operations. For databases using Autonomous Recovery Service, these compliance backups are now available with a simple click of the “Create” backup button. This long-term backup retention operation is offloaded onto the Autonomous Recovery Service, eliminating the use of production database resources and the database costs incurred with traditional full backups.
