Active-Active HA

Oracle RAC provides an active-active database HA architecture that enables zero RPO, near-zero RTO, and zero-downtime patching and maintenance. The active-active HA is critical for eliminating database outages and maximizing application uptime.

Lift-and-shift Oracle RAC to the cloud

Changes in database architecture or application code introduce high risks to migration projects. FlashGrid Cluster enables lift-and-shift migrations of Oracle RAC databases with zero architecture or code changes, thus minimizing risks to your project schedules and success.

Scalable sizing and performance

FlashGrid Cluster can be configured and scaled for databases ranging from 1 TB to hundreds of TB. Smaller OLTP databases can be deployed with no physical hardware reservation. Larger databases can be provisioned with hundreds of CPU cores and millions of IOPS for maximum performance. VM sizes can be changed as needed to optimize cost/performance.

Stay in control

Keep full control of the database software and the OS
Database instances and storage deployed in your cloud account
FlashGrid staff have no access to the VMs or data

Simple billing through marketplaces

FlashGrid products are listed in all major cloud marketplaces. Software fees are charged by the hour and include FlashGrid license subscription and 24/7 support. For your convenience, each marketplace handles billing and payments. To estimate the expected costs, see marketplace listings. Note that the prices include only VMs and FlashGrid software and support. You need to have your own Oracle Database license to use its features (BYOL). For production deployments, we recommend having an Oracle Database support subscription.

Case studies

A global US-headquartered biopharmaceutical company decided to move from Oracle Cloud to Azure to optimize costs

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.

A leading aerospace company based in Brazil needed to migrate several applications from their data center to Azure

These applications relied on Oracle RAC as the backend database and were critical to the aircraft manufacturing process. The company’s IT services provider executed the migration in three phases: starting with a proof-of-concept and testing, followed by deploying test and development clusters, and finally, launching production and disaster recovery systems. Since 2020, all systems have been successfully running on FlashGrid Cluster on Azure.
