Oracle 19C Database Administration I (Oracle DBA I) is a comprehensive, hands-on course provides concrete information on the design of an Oracle Database instance and database, allowing you to manage your database investment. In this class, you will learn how to create database storage structures that align with your requirements and business models. You will also learn how to create users and administer databases as well as harden the databases to meet your business requirements. This is the foundational course for learning about Oracle Database and it does not assume prior knowledge or Oracle technologies.
This course combines expert lecture, real-world demonstrations and group discussions with machine-based practical labs and exercises. Working in a hands-on learning environment led by our Oracle Certified expert facilitator, students will learn how to:
- How to use tools to access an Oracle Database
- Generate database creation scripts by using DBCA
- How to create a container database (CDB) by using the CREATE DATABASE command
- Learn about Startup and shut down Oracle databases
- Initialization parameter files and initialization parameters
- Tools that are used to administer Oracle Net Services
- How to use the Oracle Connection Manager Control utility to administer Oracle Connection Manager
