FlashGrid for Oracle Database

While migrating most servers was easy, there was a challenge with moving Oracle RAC clusters, which needed to be retained as the database backend. After researching options for running RAC on Azure, the company’s in-house operations team did a self-serve deployment of Oracle RAC on Azure using the FlashGrid Launcher free online tool. With the cluster already running, the operations team contacted FlashGrid to discuss completing the project and going live on the new Azure infrastructure with production and disaster recovery RAC clusters. FlashGrid performed an in-depth analysis of the customer’s AWR reports, suggesting the optimal sizing and configuration options for the clusters. The project was implemented on time, removing the roadblock for cross-cloud migration.
