Oracle Backup

Bacula Systems’ Oracle Backup and Recovery solution is an enterprise-grade tool designed to protect Oracle 10g and 11g databases with high performance, security, and flexibility. It integrates with Oracle RMAN and supports Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC), enabling direct, efficient backups without intermediate storage. The solution simplifies complex backup operations and ensures reliable point-in-time recovery.

Features

• RMAN Integration: Supports Oracle’s Recovery Manager (RMAN) for block-level, incremental, and differential backups.
• Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR): Enables precise restoration to any moment in time.
• Oracle RAC Support: Backs up shared storage in clustered environments directly via the SBT interface.
• Change Tracking: Uses RMAN’s change tracking to optimize incremental backup performance.
• Configuration Backup: Captures essential Oracle components like control files, redo logs, server parameters, and datafiles.
• Concurrent Write Support: Allows parallel data writing for faster backup operations.
• Object Filtering: Enables selective backup and restore of database objects.
