    You should be able to drill down to training locations from this screen: [http://education.oracle.com/education/html/oumaps/locationSearcher.html?p_org_id=28&lang=US] aafter selecting India.
    In theory you should be able to find out about WDP institutions here:
    [https://workforce.oracle.com/pls/wdp/new_home.main]
    [https://workforce.oracle.com/pdf/html_rd/wdp_stu_reg.html?wdp9]
    However this part of the site is a little disfunctional and may send you to Nigeria and other places when looking for institutions in India, and you might find hacking through screen more helpful:
    (Tip: accept the agreement and search for instituations containing 'a' in the name, then repeat with 'e' then 'i' then 'o' then 'u'.)
    --> [https://workforce.oracle.com/pls/wdp/rd_sel_onchange.main?cmd=s_set_lang]
    The WDP contact for india cna be found here: [https://workforce.oracle.com/pls/wdp/rd_psp_contact]
    Rumours reach me (here in UK) WDP training in India can be cheap but of variable quality, you need to weigh up cost/risk/benefit against other options and be sure what the institution is offering. Having said that it will often be the only viable choice for most people.

    Actually I just came accross this link for WDP that was courtesy of Aman some time ago: [http://www.oracle.com/global/in/education/maps/oracle_wdp.html]. Its probably more accurate for WDP providers that some other pages.

    thank you in advanceThe best training is probably by Oracle University
    Goto [http://www.oracle.com/education] - choose Product Courses, Database and Grids:
    (eg [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=14&p_org_id=1080544&lang=US])
    In both cases ensure country selected on top right is India.
    On the schedule choose courses with +100% Student Satisfaction+
    It is hard, (though obviosly not impossible), for other institutions to better this standard of such courses.
    If you are aspiring to Oracle DBA OCP be very sure the institute you are choosing satisifies the requirements for the Hands on Course, and do not take the institutes word for it but check.
    It may well be that you are looking for institutions offering the WDP programme. This is a maximm of 6 hours/week over several weeks so IMHO is impractical if you do not live nearby. There appear to be comments that sometimes the training from these institutes doing the WDP course can be of very variable quality. Probably the only option here is to seek out the opinions of recent psat students you can trust.

  • Are the oracle DBa's seeing an end to their career

    It's been 2-3 years i am working as an oracle dba in a mid range shop and i was pretty happy with it. After having the satisfaction , I was always worried about the future of an oracle dba. I always heard sql server and db2 are much much better than oracle as they are less complex to administration and their cost is less. Though the oracle people would talk about performance and scalability but with the recent releases , those db have overcome those problems. The problems for oracle dba are coming from several ways:
    1.Companies are shifting for sql server or db2 as for low cost and low required of man power.
    2.Oracle itself becoming automated.
    3. Company like IBM offering main frame solution with free db2 database for the entire data center.
    4.With the concept of Cloud computing storage would be third party location , where few employee can take the responsibility.
    And..many moreeee...
    It gives me a COLD feelings what would i be doing in 3-5 years from now and how could a dba would evolve himself with the change??? I hope this time i am not right.. all the points that i showed is wrong...

    This is a common trend and Oracle is leading flagship in it.
    Ultimate goal, as I see, is to eliminate DBA, minimizing cost of ownership.
    This will attract business to such products - self-managed software.
    I do not see it to happen tomorrow, though. But it is going there.
    Yeah, well 30 years ago the experts were predicting the end of the need for programmers (the old term for 'developers'). "End User Computing" would put the power in the hands of the business users and eliminate the entire IT department. No I'm not exaggerating. That was the prediction. And people like you were insisting it would come to pass.
    You don't even have to go that far. Look at the predictions for the 'paperless office' . . .
    Many here will argue with me, but look of the definition of DBA
    http://sqldbpool.com/2008/12/22/dba-roles-and-responsibilities/
    >
    DBA Responsibilities
    Installation, configuration and upgrading of Microsoft SQL Server/MySQL/Oracle server software and related products.
    Evaluate MSSQL/MySQL/Oracle features and MSSQL/MySQL/Oracle related products.
    Establish and maintain sound backup and recovery policies and procedures.
    Take care of the Database design and implementation.
    Implement and maintain database security (create and maintain users and roles, assign privileges).
    Database tuning and performance monitoring.
    Application tuning and performance monitoring.
    Setup and maintain documentation and standards.
    Plan growth and changes (capacity planning).
    Work as part of a team and provide 7×24 supports when required.
    Do general technical trouble shooting and give consultation to development teams.
    Interface with MSSQL/MySQL/Oracle for technical support.
    ITIL Skill set requirement (Problem Management/Incident Management/Chain Management etc)
    >
    Well, that's ONE "definition" of a DBA. It's far from "the" definition.
    I'll tell you what. I've actually sat on committees that drew up lists like that. I can tell you first hand that while a lot of things on the list may look legit, there is also a lot of pressure just to fill up the list with as many things as possible in order to justify head count to the bean counters. You could just as well add 'weekly cleaning of the left-hand smoke shifter.'
    Then lets look at them one by one:
    Installation, configuration and upgrading of Microsoft SQL Server/MySQL/Oracle server software and related products.How often Installation happens? Once for one new app. Usually app vendors have recommendations that DBA should follow. So, what is DBA's role here? Start installer and to follow.
    Configuration and upgrading will be more and more automated.
    Except the app vendor left out critical details they didn't think were critical because they don't understand the database. Or have bogus 'requirements' because they don't understand the database. Or their recommendations were based on how they did it in their pristine development lab and they never even knew about critical dependencies that might not exist outside of their lab.
    Week before last I spent 50 hours working on installing a new database based on the app vendor's specifications ....
    Evaluate MSSQL/MySQL/Oracle features and MSSQL/MySQL/Oracle related products.Again, how often? When new App is about to be created and designers need to choose which DB they will need.
    And then they proceed to develop on rdbms-A using best practices they learned from rdbms-B -- which turn out to be worst practices on rdbms-A. And only when they go live do they discover that their design doesn't scale because they tried to re-invent (poorly) functionality built into the database.
    Establish and maintain sound backup and recovery policies and procedures.Again, how often yo need to establish policies and procedures? Every time you put in a new app with a different SLA.
    Backup itself is 100% automated already today. Only if you buy off on the lowest common denominator.
    Recovery is close to 100%.Oh? Go spend some time in the RMAN forum ...
    And even if it were close to 100%, 'close' only counts "when playing horseshoes or hand grenades."
    Most of enterprise backup software support backup and recovery of major RDBMSs.
    Just specify a date "from" and click Go.
    A little bit complex with RMAN. You have to type(!) RESTORE DATABASE; RECOVER...
    Until the cause of failure was something the automation didn't anticipate. Or you then discover that your 100% automated-out-of-the-box backup didn't work the way thought it did. Oh, it 'worked' all right. Just not the way you thought it did.
    Take care of the Database design and implementation.Where? Only in development shops.
    Depends on what you mean by 'database design and implementation'. And most companies have some sort of development, even if they don't recognize it or call it that.
    Implement and maintain database security (create and maintain users and roles, assign privileges).Centralized enterprise security (Domain etc) are in use. Many apps have their security and use basic RDMS security to login App running user.
    Until such time as "nothing changed" but "I can't connect to my database".
    Database tuning and performance monitoring.Greatly automated. Ultimately will be 100% automated.
    Until it's not. See my comment above about developers.
    Application tuning and performance monitoring.There are enterprise solutions for monitoring. Also Oracle has Grid Control.
    Application tuning can be done by app vendors.I've NEVER met an app vendor that knew **** about how their app impacted performance. 100% of them throw it back on the DBA. I had an app vendor tell me that Oracle was incapable of sustaining more than five concurrent connections.
    DBA cannot tune App itself. It may only modify some things in DB that will perform better. And this will be automated.
    No, because the database cannot anticipate what stupid things the vendor may do. And it can only work with what it is given.
    Setup and maintain documentation and standards.How often?
    As often as anything that is documented, changes. As often as it is discovered that something that should be documented, isnt'
    Plan growth and changes (capacity planning).Well, DBA should do it. But, again, how often?Should be almost constantly. Given budget cycles, you can't wait until your disk is 98% full before asking to buy more.
    >
    Work as part of a team and provide 7×24 supports when required.Where such 7×24 support policy exists.Look at my comments above about how these lists get created in the first place.
    I can tell you from experience that such 24x7 policies are more common than you seem to think. Just about any financial processing business, logistics and transportation business, telecom business ...
    And what from above should be supported during a night by a human?
    I see just a restore/recover DB, because a human should make a decision "From which Date".
    Do general technical trouble shooting and give consultation to development teams.Yes, in Dev shops. Most of shops are not development shops, though may do custom and ad-hoc reporting and small app development. Do they need a dedicated DBA for this? I doubt. Either a developer will be (self)trained to do some DBA's tasks or DBA will become a SQL developer in that team.
    Interface with MSSQL/MySQL/Oracle for technical support.Oh yeah... :)
    ITIL Skill set requirement (Problem Management/Incident Management/Chain Sure, two days of training to know basics of ITIL to understand what manager of Helpdesk (Support and Incident Management Team) is talking about.
    So, I see DBA should go in of 3 directions:
    1. Very deep technical expert that can help in some rear and difficult cases. How many of them will be needed?
    2. SQL/ETL/etc Developer. There is not much automation in software development yet.
    3. DB Design and Architecture. How many of them will be needed? May be more that #1.You seem to think that automation will solve everything. Take that to it's logical conclusion and it will put all of IT out of work. See my comment above regarding "End User Computing'. What you forget is the human element. Not the human DBA trying to do things you think are or soon will be automated. No I'm talking about the humans that create the kinds of problems that automation is *always* trying to catch up with. Pointy Hair Bosses dreaming up new requirements. Bean counters refusing to by an additional 10 gb of disk. Developers that refuse to learn and/or follow best practice. Developers that can't think beyond clicking an icon to create a table. Developers that treat an rdbms as a data dump and try to use Java to re-invent every bit of functionality the db already provides. Systems administrators that delete all of your online redo logs because he needed disk space and 'log files are expendable'. End users that forget their password *EVERY F****** DAY!*
    No, I don't spend my time managing extent distribution like I had to do with 8i. Yes, a lot of things I had to do manually in 8i are now successfully automated to the point I don't have to do them .. or have simply been engineered out of the system. But no amount of automation will overcome the ways humans (Executives, managers, supervisors, other IT team members, and users) figure out how to bring a system to its knees.
    This whole discussion reminds me of Dippin' Dots. "The Ice Cream of the Future". Well, it's been "The Ice Cream of the Future" for almost 30 years ....

  • Oracle 10g training needed !

    I am looking for advice to get oracle 10 g training.
    Would like to get an idea of what courses/training I need to take to
    be considered an Oracle DBA.
    Also what resources: schools, on-line, etc.
    I am an experienced data modeler and metadata admiistrator.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Depending on your country you may need to be nothing more than a liar.
    In the US anyone that can put the letters "DBA" on their resume is one if some company is fool enough to hire them.
    There are few places, if any, where any specific training or skill set is mandated.
    Generally speaking though DBAs should have a minimum of three years of hands-on development experience with SQL and PL/SQL and be competent with all topics covered in this document:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14196/toc.htm
    with the possible exception of RAC.

    Why you are looking for DBA training as a beginner when you are already certified in 8i,9i tracks? Going with that, you should be already knowing what a DBA needs to do and all what you should be going for is not a training but to look for the New Features guides for releases 10g, 11g and since yesterday, even for 12c .

    please guys do suggest me..as i really need a genuiine advice.
    thank you so much in advance

    Xaheer,user8740508
    Can you point me where the OP has mentioned that he wants an institute name to be given to him? And the claims you guys are doing about these institutes being the best ones, what's the authenticity of that? Are these Oracle Education Partners, are they under the WDP program or merely just a training center providing trainings? Please stop putting names of the institutes just like that and remove the references and emails given!
    @OP,
    If you want to do training, I would suggest that you first of all get a good discussion done that what modules you want to get trained upon? I wouldn't suggest you to go to any XYZ institute but would rather ask you to do a self learning first. Start reading with the documentation and also install the latest version of Oracle(11g) on your home machine. Do give a call to Oracle University india at this number and have a discussion about what and how you should persue about the training. You can call either at 1800 425 8877 or at this number +91 80 4108 4709.
