Question 15:

A Corporation is building a web application to allow its customers to schedule service requests online. There is also a need to run operational reports at times during non-peak hours. The architecture team is debating whether such reports should be run on the OLTP database or in a separate data mart. The DBA Manager does not want to add anymore admin responsibility to the team and is looking for a database option that's low to zero maintenance, but meets their strict performance requirements as well.

Which Oracle Cloud Infrastructure database service is appropriate for this scenario?

  1. Using 'tpurgenf and 'high' TNS services to separate connection types
  2. ADW since operational reporting is a higher priority in this scenario.
  3. Since the application needs to be highly available, It should to be deployed on a Kubernetes Cluster.
  4. It is best to build a separate data warehouse, and move the OLTP data on a nightly basis.

  2. Specify the point in time (timestamp) to restore
  3. Select the archived redo logs.
  4. Backup and recovery must be done using Recovery Manager (RMAN).
  5. Select the backup from which restore needs to be done

Explanation

You can initiate recovery for your Autonomous database using the cloud console. Autonomous database automatically restores and recovers your database to the point-in-time you specify.

On the details page, from the Actions drop-down list, select Restore to display the Restore prompt.

You can Specify Timestamp or Select Backup. then Click Restore.

Restoring Autonomous Database puts the database in the unavailable state during the restore operation. You cannot connectto database in that state

The details page shows Lifecycle State: Restore In Progress...

When the restore operation finishes your Autonomous Data Warehouse instance opens in readonly mode and the instance details page Lifecycle State shows Available Needs Attention.

At this point you can connect to your Autonomous Database instance and check your data to validate that the restore point you specified was correct.

if f the restore point you specified was correct and you want to open your database in read-write mode click Stop and after the database stops, click Start to start the database.

After stopping and starting, the database opens in read-write mode.

Question 21:

When exporting a notebook, what type of file is created?

  1. SQL
  2. JSON
  3. ASCII
  4. XML
  5. TXT

Explanation

Export a Notebook

You can export a notebook as a .json (JavaScript Object Notation) file, and later import it in to the same or a different environment.

To export a notebook:

  • In the Notebooks page, click the notebook that you want to export.

The notebook opens in the notebook editor.

  • In the top panel of the notebook editor, click export. The notebook is saved to your local folder as a .json file.

Question 22:

Which statement is true regarding database client credentials file required to connect to your Autonomous Database?

  1. When you share the credential files with authorized users, mail the wallet password and the file in the same email
  2. The Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) wallet can be used for your client credentials to connect to your database
  3. Place the credential files on a share drive that all users can use to connect to the database

d) Store credential files in a secure location and share the files only with authorized users to prevent

unauthorized access to the database

 

Explanation

Connection to Autonomous DB uses certificate authentication and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). This ensures that there is no unauthorized access to Autonomous DB and that communications between the client and server are fully encrypted and cannot be intercepted or altered.

Certification authentication uses an encrypted key stored in a wallet on both the client (where the application is running) and the server (where your database service on the Autonomous DB is running). The key on the client must match the key on the server to make a connection

There's credentials zip file available for download once ADB is created. the zip file contains a collection of files, that needed to connect to your Autonomous DB. All communications between the client and the server are encrypted

Wallet files, along with the Database user ID and password provide access to data in your Autonomous Transaction Processing database. Store wallet files in a secure location. Share wallet files only with authorized users. If wallet files are transmitted in a way that might be accessed by unauthorized users (for example, over public email), transmit the wallet password separately and securely.

For better security, Oracle recommends using restricted permissions on wallet files. This means setting the file permissions to 600 on Linux/Unix.

Similar restrictions can be achieved on Windows by letting the file owner have Read and Write permissions while all other users have no permissions.

Question 23:

When you connect Oracle Analytics Cloud to the Autonomous Data Warehouse, what file needs to be uploaded?

Question 24:

Which statement about the Export Wizard used to export database objects and data is NOT correct?

  1. If "Dependents" is checked as a DDL Option, for non-privileged users, only dependent objects in their schema are exported
  2. Export DDL includes features such as "Show schema," "Storage," and "Terminator."
  3. If "Clipboard" is selected as the "Output," the output will be placed on the system clipboard, so that it can be pasted into a file, a command line, or other location appropriate for the format

d) If "Grants" Is checked as a DDL Option, GRANT statements are Included for any grant objects

on the exported objects, including those owned by the SYS schema

 

Question 25:

Which two statements are true about the The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)?

a) Because availability domains do not share infrastructure such as power or cooling, or the internal

availability domain network, a failure at one availability domain within a region is unlikely to impact

 

the availability of the others within the same region

 
  1. Regions are dependent on other regions and must be located with 5 thousand kilometers of each other.
  2. A single fault domain can be associated with multiple regions and availability domains

d) An OCI region is a localized geographic area, and an availability domain is one or more data

centers located within a region

 

Explanation

  • Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is physically hosted in regions and availability domains. A region is a localized geographic area, and an availability domain is one or more data centers located within a region. A region is composed of one or more availability domains.
  • Availability domains are isolated from each other, fault tolerant, and very unlikely to fail simultaneously or be impacted by the failure of another availability domain. When you configure your cloud services, use multiple availability domains to ensure high availability and to protect against resource failure.

Question 26:

Which is NOT required to connect to Autonomous Database from SQL developer? a) Service name
