Cisco and joint customers/partners, including NaviSite, will demonstrate âstateless computingâ as a cost effective alternative for running Oracle solutions while providing greater scalability, availability, and extensibility. By decoupling the utilization of physical servers, this new stateless model allows for raised service levels and simplification of management. Learn how Cisco UCS and Oracle solutions enable customers,…

On the example of this real-life project, we will demonstratehow mature MySQL database software is and what an experiencedOracle DBA can expect in the MySQL land. The project included settingup highly available clustered infrastructure and disaster recoverysite for MySQL. The application was migrated to MySQL from a legacy database platform on OpenVMS.
