Oracle environments drift over time. Patch levels fall behind. Options and management packs get enabled by accident. RAC or Data Guard settings look fine until a failover proves otherwise. Our health check builds a clear picture of performance, configuration, resilience, and licensing so you know what to fix first and what it is worth.
| Phase | Key Actions | Outcomes |
|---|---|---|
Discover | Inventory databases and hosts. Pull AWR, ASH, alert logs, and configuration data. | Complete estate baseline. |
| Analyze | Identify bottlenecks, resiliency gaps, and license exposures. Model right sizing options. | Risk and optimization matrix. |
| Validate | Test backup and restore in non-prod. Review RAC or Data Guard failover behavior. | Evidence to support changes. |
| Recommend | Prioritize fixes by effort and impact. Provide scripts and rollback notes. | Action plan and timeline. |
| Review | Walk through results with DBAs and stakeholders. Align owners and next steps. | Agreed roadmap and ticket list. |
Typical engagements complete in 1 to 3 weeks depending on database count and the depth of recovery testing.
Yes. We examine options and packs in use, edition alignment, and platform boundaries, then call out risks and savings paths.
We include platform specifics such as oversubscription risk, storage queues, and cloud instance choices. Recommendations reflect both performance and license impact.
After major change or at least annually to confirm performance targets, recovery objectives, and license posture.
Great. We incorporate those metrics, add configuration and recovery analysis, and translate everything into a prioritized plan.
After major workload changes or at least annually to confirm performance targets, cost profile, and recovery objectives still hold.
