About Disaster Recovery

Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse doesn’t have an official disaster recovery offering at this time. .Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse is built upon Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and leverages Oracle PaaS services.

While a priced option is designed, here is some guidance for enterprise needs. For the Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse ready-to-use content, it is possible to provision a fresh Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse environment with the latest software and do a data activation in the case of a disaster. Oracle Applications Cloud is the source of truth for Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse data. A data reset can populate Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse with historical data from the Oracle Applications Cloud source at any time. Customizations to Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse and any custom ETL and schemas are the key concerns in case of a region-wide disaster recovery event.

For enterprise customers who need a disaster recovery strategy for region-wide failures, here are some suggestions:
  • Active solution: Purchase another Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse subscription and provision it in a region other than production Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse. Note that you can still connect this secondary environment to the same Oracle Applications Cloud source as the primary and refresh data just like the primary environment. Maintain the secondary environment in synchrony with the primary production environment by repeating any action taken in the primary environment. You can switch business users to the secondary environment any time.
  • Passive solution: Provision an Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse Additional Test Environment (ATE) in a different region than the production environment and maintain it in synchrony with the primary production environment in terms of all the customizations. In the case of a disaster event, scale-up the ATE instance, refresh data to production level, and switch business users to using this environment.
