Oracle Autonomous Database Consulting and Managed Services

Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse automates infrastructure and database management for analytical workloads. It supports parallel query processing, data compression, and connections to enterprise applications and databases.

Vast Edge helps connect ADW to analytics tools and source systems, including ERP applications. Confirm current product pricing, capacity limits, and compression claims before retaining the existing figures.

`When it comes to databases, Oracle ATP has created a sensation in the cloud computing industry. As we are all aware, Oracle has always been the number one database in the industry for performance and secure data management. Even some of the largest competitors of Oracle such as Amazon and SAP run on Oracle databases. There are around 65,000 customers running SAP products on Oracle database as MS SQL server could not scale and SAP HANA was newer, insanely expensive, and took for ever to implement. Oracle ATP in addition to the above mentioned features, provides self tuning of indexes on the fly based on the queries being executed by the application/users. This helps you save time and get better optimized performance all the time with no manual work required. Click here to get more information on Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing

If you are planning a move from an existing database, explore Vast Edge’s services for migration to Autonomous Database.

Vast Edge has done a few ATP deployments and migrations from non autonomous Oracle and MYSQL databases. There's also an option to migrate non Oracle databases such as postgreSQL and mongoDB to Oracle database that requires some additional efforts.

For those who are not aware, Oracle provides an APEX engine for application development with Oracle Autonomous database. Most importantly, this app dev engine comes for free and does not require you to know much coding. Even the queries are written automatically when you select the tables with an option to modify them. Oracle APEX also comes with option to integrate chatbots, generate graphical reports, and integrate office 365 for email automation.

Organizations moving existing Forms or database applications can review our Oracle APEX migration services for assessment, target architecture, integration, and modernization planning.

Vast Edge has done several Oracle APEX migrations to Oracle cloud with a few of them on Oracle Autonomous database. Although both APEX and Weblogic cloud will be certified by Oracle in June 2019, Vast Edge has tested these deployments to be working okay in the development and test environments.

Vast Edge is also an approved Oracle partner to get access to Oracle cloud products before they are made generally available to the end customers. Hence, this is one of the value adds where we can assist and advise the customers to leverage better solutions and reduce risks. These joint research and development efforts with Oracle have also given us the ability to deploy solutions faster using pre existing scripts and configurations.

This is a sample architecture of Oracle Database and APEX low code application development engine. This architecture adds Tomcat engine in the front to make the solution more scalable. Although APEX can also be hosted on it's own server, we have not seen any performance improvement. The other option is for you to add apache httpd web server to better control url rewriting and connection pools.

Vast Edge has pre built templates to automatically deploy this architecture in minutes. This includes pre tested versions of APEX, ORDS, Database, HTTPD, and Tomcat with compression and url re-writing pre enabled. Other options such as real time messaging across platforms such as IOS, android, and web app, Angular/Node.js, and Office 365 integrations can be added upon request.

Autonomous undoubtedly solves one of the most pressing and ever increasing issue of continuous threat by hackers. As we all know, some one or the other is being hacked and data is being stolen every moment. The table on the right shows some of the biggest data breached in the history of United States of America in the last 7 years. In addition to data encryption at rest and in transit, Autonomous Database reduces manual intervention by resources to continuously touch the database for maintenance, troubleshooting and performance tuning. This drastically reduces the chances of database being hacked. In addition to this, Oracle cloud firewall provides security features to stop SQL Injections.

Vast Edge takes special measures to prevent security threats by migrating customers to autonomous database, adding strict governance policies, and adding firewall rules to prevent indirect data attacks such as those caused by SQL Injections.
