Database as a Service

• Database as a Service provides

• A shared, consolidated platform to provision database services on

• A self-service model to provision those services

• Elasticity to scale out and scale back database resources

• Chargeback based on database usage

• Database as a Service needs to cater to various use cases

• A developer or a project owner requiring a new database service with/without seed data

• QA requiring a full database refresh for intense load testing

• QA requiring to create multiple clones for functional testing on subset of data

Database as a Service: Key Use Cases

User deploys a dedicated database inside a VM or on physical

Pros: Resource isolation, ideal for enterprise applications like ERP

Cons: VM and database sprawl, administrative overheads, compliance challenges

User deploys a dedicated database inside a VM or on physical

Pros: Resource isolation, ideal for enterprise applications like ERP

Cons: VM and database sprawl, administrative overheads, compliance challenges

1. User needs a new database service with or without seed data

User deploys a database schema inside a database

Pros: High consolidation, minimal administrative and maintenance overhead

Cons: Limited isolation

User deploys a database schema inside a database

Pros: High consolidation, minimal administrative and maintenance overhead

Cons: Limited isolation

2. User needs a clone of an existing database for testing

User makes a full clone of database

Pros: Ideal for load-testing with significant data updates

Cons: Time and space consuming

User makes a full clone of database

Pros: Ideal for load-testing with significant data updates

Cons: Time and space consuming

User makes a thin-clone (using ‘Copy On Write’) of database

Pros: Minimal additional space, instantaneous cloning, ideal for functional testing

Cons: Reduced benefits in case of significant data updates

Database as a Service

� Consolidation

– Ability to consolidate database workloads on common infrastructure

� Standardization

– Ability to create standard database services without creating configuration

sprawl

� Automation

– Ability to provision databases in an agile and automated manner

� Showback / Chargeback

– Ability to meter the usage

Four Essential Components

Enterprise Manager 12c Feature Overview


DBaaS Consolidation

• Automated discovery mechanisms and rich monitoring data to baseline current

usage

• Provides advisories for physical-to-physical, physical- to-virtual and physical-

to-Exadata consolidation

• Advisories can be based on technical and functional/business constraints

• Supports various consolidation models

• Shared Server, Shared Cluster and Shared Database

• Shared Cluster and Shared Database models complement the physical

consolidation benefits from Exadata

DBaaS Standardization

� Enterprise Manager provides a resource pooling mechanism to pool

together homogeneous set of databases

� Enterprise Manager enforces governance for resource

– Placement policies based on load and configuration

– Access control, quota, retirement policies

� Enterprise Manager provides a guided workflow to create a Service

Catalog for providing database services



DBaaS Service Governance

• Create homogeneous infrastructure

of platform pools capable of hosting

standard database services

• Define placement policies

• Define access control on those

pools

• Define quota based on CPU,

storage, number of databases, etc

and assign them to roles

• Define retirement policies, e.g. retire

after a month of inactivity

2/26/2013

8


DBaaS Service CatalogGuided workflow to publish services to the catalog

•Create Service Template

•Capture gold image (from reference system) for the provisioning payload

•Define Deployment Procedure for the provisioning logic

• Grant the Service Template to specific users

• Publish the Service Template to the Service Catalog


DBaaS AutomationEnterprise Manager Features

� Out-of-box console for Self-Service Provisioning

� Can cater to DBAs, Developers, QA, Project Owners, etc

� Agile, push button method for handling

� Provisioning simple vanilla databases or schemas for developers

� Provisioning full databases for intense testing, such as upgrade

� Cloning large volumes of data in minutes for testing that involves small

subset of the data

� RESTFUL APIs for external integration and orchestration

Self-Service Provisioning

• Out-of-box console with customization and API support

• Self-Service DB and Schema Provisioning

• Schema-as-a-Service implementation consistent with Oracle Cloud DB Service

• Full database cloning using RMAN

• Database “Snap Clone” feature leveraging underlying storage copy-on-write technologies

• Integrated solution for database lifecycle management: monitoring, backup, patching

Schema-as-a-Service• Features

• Consolidate multiple applications in a shared database

• Each application user can provision one or more database schema(s)

• Automated placement based on workload specifications

• Service governance through quotas, retirement policies and chargeback

plans

• Service level guarantee through Database Resource Manager

• Security isolation through Data Vault

• Benefits

• Saves resources through ultimate consolidation of multiple database

applications

• Minimizes administrative overheads and compliance challenges

• Example: Needs a single patching for hundreds of schemas in database

• Increases efficiency from automated provisioning

*New in 12cR2Plugin Update 1


• Features

• Leverage storage copy on-write technologies for database provisioning

• Initial support for NAS (Oracle ZFS Appliance and Netapp)

• Integrated lifecycle management (lineage and association tracking)

• “Time travel” capability to restore and access past data

• Benefits

• Agile provisioning (~ 2 minutes to provision a 1 TB database)

• Over 90% storage savings (100 KB of additional space for cloning a 1 TB database)

• Reduced administrative overhead from integrated lifecycle management

Summary of Database Cloning Choices From Enterprise Manager

Private backup for

SSA user•Storage based technology

• Saves space and time

• Ideal for "use and throw“ i.e.

short lived databases

• Suited for functional testing with

minor updates

• Storage Admin involved in setup

•Oracle Database based technology; Storage

neutral

• Restore time proportional to backup size

• Leverages existing technology and

infrastructure

• Suited for intense load and functional testing

• Completely managed by DBAs
