Many studies show that 40% of application outages
are caused by operator or user errors. Making mistakes
is just part of being human. Such errors are extremely
difficult to avoid and can be very difficult to
recover from without advance planning and the right
technology. While it is relatively
simple to rectify the failure of an individual component,
detection of and repairs to logical data corruption,
such as accidental deletion of valuable data, is a
time-consuming operation that results in a huge loss
in business productivity.
Flashback Database quickly rewinds an Oracle database
to a previous point in time to correct any problems
caused by logical data corruptions or user errors.
Flashback Database is like a "rewind button" for your
database. It is similar to conventional point-in-time recovery in its
effects: it allows you to return a database to its state
at a time in the recent past. However, it eliminates the time required to restore backup files.
The benefits of the Oracle Flashback technology can be combined with those of Oracle Data Guard by setting up Flashback Database on a physical Standby Database.
