Oracle Database 11g Admin-II DBA Training Course
The Oracle Database 11g Administration II course is an advanced, hands-on training course that takes Oracle
Database Administrators beyond the foundational skills acquired in Administration I. This course fully prepares
students for the Oracle Certified Professional (OCP) Exam 1Z0-053 the industry’s premier credential confirming
that a DBA possesses the advanced expertise required to manage, protect, optimize, and recover enterprise-grade
Oracle 11g databases.
This course takes the database administrator beyond the basic tasks covered in the first workshop. Students begin
by gaining a much deeper understanding of one of the most critical responsibilities of a DBA backup and recovery.
The concepts and architecture supporting backup and recovery, along with the practical steps of carrying it out in
various scenarios, are covered in full depth, including how to define and test your own backup and recovery
strategies. Additionally, DBAs learn how to manage memory effectively, evaluate and tune performance using
Oracle’s advisory tools, leverage all types of Flashback technologies, schedule jobs inside and outside the
database, and control system resource usage.
Achieving the OCP certification signals to employers that you are not merely a database operator you are a
strategic database professional capable of protecting business-critical data, diagnosing complex failures, and
tuning environments under real production pressures.
