Novedades Oracle Database Cloud Service - Julio 2017

July 2017

Feature	Description
Hybrid Disaster Recovery (DR)	You can create a Hybrid DR deployment that includes a primary database on your on-premises system and a standby database in the cloud. Previously you could create a DR configuration with a standby database in the cloud by performing a number of manual steps. Now you can easily create the Hybrid DR deployment through the Database Cloud Service console. For information, see "Creating a Hybrid DR Deployment" in Using Oracle Database Cloud Service.
Mandatory “sync-up” patch available for Release 12.2 Oracle RAC databases	Several enhancements and bug fixes have been made to Oracle Database Release 12.2 since its release on Oracle Cloud in November 2016. However, these improvements have not yet been gathered into a PSU. Database Cloud Service is making available a “sync-up” patch that includes these many improvements and prepares your database deployment for patching when the first PSU becomes available for Release 12.2. You must apply this patch to 12.2 database deployments that use Database Cloud Servicerelease 17.2.1 or earlier, and host one of the following database types: Database Clustering with RAC Database Clustering with RAC and Data Guard Standby See "Preparing 12.2 Database Deployments Hosting Oracle RAC Databases for Patching"in Using Oracle Database Cloud Service.
