Course Description (required)
In this course students will use the Oracle Enterprise Edition database software to create a new database and learn
how to administer the database. They will also configure the database to support an application, performing tasks
such as creating users, defining storage structures and setting up security. Since database administration does not
end after the database has been created, students will also learn how to protect the database by designing a backup
and recovery strategy and how to monitor the database to ensure it operates smoothly. Students will also have the
opportunity to consolidate and build on their SQL knowledge.
