Oracle Drivers configuration for High Availability, is it a developer’s job?

The configuration of client drivers for high availability is a hard job. The developers care about the minimal working configuration, the DBAs are busy with the operations. I will demystify application server’s connectivity to the database and give a direction toward the highest availability.

UCP, GridLink, TAF, AC, TAC, FAN… The configuration of Oracle Drivers for application high availability is not an easy job. The developers often care about the minimal working configuration, while the DBAs are busy with the operations. In this session I will try to demystify application server’s connectivity to the database and give a direction toward the highest availability, using Real Application Clusters and new Oracle features like TAC and CMAN TDM.
