  • OCCI support for Oracle Connection Manager in Traffic Director Mode

    Oracle Connection Manager in Traffic Director Mode is a proxy that is placed between the database clients and the database instances. Supported clients from Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2) and later can connect to Oracle Connection Manager in Traffic Director Mode. Oracle Connection Manager in Traffic Director Mode provides improved high availability (HA) for planned and unplanned database server outages, connection multiplexing support, and load balancing.

    Oracle Connection Manager in Traffic Director Mode can use the client oraaccess.xml configuration file to configure proxy resident connection pools for one or more services that provide a proxy between the client and database instances. This feature provides improved high availability and performance for both planned and unplanned outages.

    See About Using Oracle Connection Manager in Traffic Director Mode for more information.
