10G DB Console Administration Toolset
Readers of this blog know how important I think 10G Grid Control is to the future of Oracle database administration. DBAs must learn to leverage the intelligence built into the Grid Control product set to reduce the amount of time they spend administering, monitoring and troubleshooting Oracle databases.
That being said, there are times when you don’t have access to a full blown, enterprise-wide Grid Control environment. Not to worry, Oracle also provides the 10G Database Control administration toolset. 10G Database Control can be used to effectively administer a single Oracle database. Although 10G Database Control might not have the enterprise-wide scope that Grid Control does, it does provide a very robust set of features and functions that are guaranteed to make database administrators more productive. This blog will provide you with a brief overview of the 10G Database Control product set. We’ll also compare and contrast Database Control to its big brother, Grid Control.
