I’m excited announce another guest blog written by my good friend and funny-talking American cousin Nathan Fuzi. Like me, Nate comes from a database background but joined the all-flash storage revolution back in its infancy. Which means, like me, Nate how has a little tombstone on his résumé marked Violin Memory. But even though he has since moved up to working in THE CLOUD, Nate’s experience working for an AFA vendor is invaluable. Over six years, he worked (more...)
In my previous 2 blogposts i explained how to setup a Vagrantfile that deploys 2 virtualbox machines that can be used as a basis for a RAC cluster and how you could use Ansible to deploy RAC on those VM’s. In this post i want to dive a bit deeper into how i setup Ansible and why, keep in mind that this just one way of doing this.
The Github repository containing all the files (more...)
For later creation of containers as needed in the deployment process we have first to build docker images whenever we do not find suitable one in docker hub.
For most of my development I need a oracle database. On the internet you can find a lot of Dockerfile’s for this, but no ready image. This is because for running a database you have to accept a license and this happens when you download the installation (more...)
Higher eduction establishments around the world use Peoplesoft Campus Solutions from Oracle to manage their key business processes.

Availability: Campus solutions needs a high availability infrastructure to ensure that both the administrative and student users can access data at all times. This solution uses multiple web and (more...)
I’ve updated my install cookbooks page to include a new cookbook for installation of Oracle 11.2.0.4 Real Application Clusters on Oracle Linux 6.7.
This is also the first one I’ve published since I left the employment of Violin Memory to work for Kaminario, so this install uses a Kaminario K2 All Flash Array. However, it applies very well to any Oracle RAC installation which uses relatively capable storage.
Enjoy:

By default on an Oracle RAC installation, the listeners are configured to allow any database to register with them. There is no security out of the box to determine which databases may register. While this makes it easy to create new databases without worrying about listener registration, this can cause potential problems in a real environment.
This can be dangerous working with RAC environments where the database registers with both a local and remote listener. The (more...)
