3 Target Database Registration

This section discusses how to register target databases with Oracle Data Safe. You need to register your target databases before you can use them with Oracle Data Safe features.

  • Target Database Registration Overview
    To use an Oracle database with Oracle Data Safe, you first need to register it with Oracle Data Safe.
  • Connectivity Options for Target Databases
    Oracle Data Safe can connect to Oracle databases that have public or private IP addresses. To connect to databases with private IP addresses, you can use either an Oracle Data Safe private endpoint or an Oracle Data Safe on-premises connector. Oracle Data Safe supports TLS and TCP protocols.
  • Preregistration Tasks
    Prior to registering a database, be sure to complete the necessary preregistration tasks. The tasks required depend on the type of database that you want to register. Some of these tasks are also post registration tasks.
  • Register an Autonomous Database
    You can use the Autonomous Databases wizard to register Autonomous Databases as Oracle Data Safe target databases.
  • Register an Oracle Cloud Database
    You can use the Oracle Cloud Databases wizard to register Oracle Cloud Databases as Oracle Data Safe target databases.
  • Register an Oracle On-Premises Database
    You can use the Oracle On-Premises Databases wizard to register an Oracle On-Premises database as an Oracle Data Safe target database.
  • Register an Oracle Database on a Compute Instance
    You can use the Oracle Databases on Compute wizard to register an Oracle Database on a compute instance as Oracle Data Safe target databases.
  • Register an Exadata Cloud@Customer Database
    You can use the Exadata Cloud@Customer wizard to register Exadata Cloud@Customer databases as Oracle Data Safe target databases.
  • Manually Register a Target Database
    You can manually register all supported target databases with Oracle Data Safe from the Target Databases page in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
  • Manage Target Databases
    As your target databases and their environments evolve, you may need to perform various life-cycle management activities.
  • Create an Oracle Data Safe Private Endpoint
    You can create an Oracle Data Safe private endpoint to connect Oracle Data Safe to an Oracle Cloud Database (with a private IP address), Oracle On-Premises Database, and Oracle Database on Compute. Create the Oracle Data Safe private endpoint on the Private Endpoints page in the Oracle Data Safe service in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
  • Create an Oracle Data Safe On-Premises Connector
    You can create an Oracle Data Safe on-premises connector to connect Oracle Data Safe to an Oracle On-Premises Database, or Oracle Database on Compute. You can create up to five Oracle Data Safe on-premises connectors on the On-Premises Connectors page in the Oracle Data Safe service in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
  • Troubleshoot Target Registration
    If your target database has the status NEEDS ATTENTION, you need to troubleshoot target registration. You can refer here for help to resolve error messages.
