Oracle Maximum Availability Architecture (MAA) best practices for OCI
summary
Oracle lays out MAA tiers—bronze, silver, gold, platinum—mapping RPO/RTO targets and concrete configs: bronze is single‑instance with RMAN and flashback, silver adds RAC and rolling patching, gold uses Active Data Guard for zero RPO with synchronous replication and seconds‑level RTO, platinum uses bidirectional Oracle GoldenGate plus local Active Data Guard standbys. Exachk automates best‑practice checks, Application Continuity replays in‑flight transactions, Global Data Services balances multi‑primary traffic, and Edition Based Redefinition incompatible with GoldenGate. OCI footprint spans ~40 regions and a Full Stack Disaster Recovery (beta) orchestrator is available.
