Autonomous Health Framework (AHF)
Oracle Autonomous Health Framework (AHF) is a diagnostic and system performance framework designed to keep database systems healthy and running while minimizing human reaction time
Why Oracle Autonomous Health Framework
Accelerated diagnostics
Reduce diagnostic time through automated data collection, root cause insights, and recommended resolutions.
Improved availability
Reduce the risk of outages by identifying critical issues and configuration problems before they impact database availability.
Optimized performance
Identify performance problems and resource bottlenecks faster, helping maintain database performance and make better use of available resources.
Diagnostics Insights gives you a clear view of your system’s health, highlighting anomalies, best-practice opportunities, system changes, and performance trends so you can quickly understand what needs attention.
Best Practices Check evaluates your environment against recommended configurations, providing a health score and clear visibility into critical issues, warnings, and areas that are already in good shape.
Collect Diagnostics gathers the relevant logs and system data for a specific event, helping support teams quickly investigate issues and identify the right corrective action.
Resolve Issues turns diagnostic findings into actionable recommendations, helping you troubleshoot problems in your environment, use My Oracle Support for deeper analysis, and connect with Oracle Support when needed.

How Oracle Autonomous Health Framework works
Oracle Autonomous Health Framework (AHF) helps keep Oracle Database environments healthy and available by continuously checking for risks, detecting emerging issues, accelerating diagnosis, and automating resolution where possible.
Prevent problems with proactive health checks. Oracle ORAchk and Oracle EXAchk assess database and infrastructure configurations against Oracle best practices, helping identify risks before they affect availability or performance.
Detect issues before they become critical. Health Monitor continuously captures operating system and database metrics. Health Advisor analyzes these metrics to detect anomalies and provide early warning of potential performance and availability issues.
Accelerate diagnosis with intelligent insights. When an issue occurs, Oracle Trace File Analyzer automatically collects relevant diagnostic data across the environment. AHF Insights brings together configuration, topology, metrics, logs, and other diagnostic information to identify what happened, pinpoint likely root causes, and recommend corrective actions.
Automate resolution where possible. AHF goes beyond detection and diagnosis to help resolve problems. In Oracle RAC environments, Blocker Resolver can autonomously resolve supported blocking issues, helping restore resource availability faster without manual intervention.
