2. Activity Guide II: Create VCN, Subnet, Security List, Gateways (IGW, SGW & DRG) & Route Table
To know more about Networking, I would highly recommend you to check my previous post on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI): Networking
The Next steps after creating & Managing Compartment, Users, Group & Policy in IAM, You should know about Networking in OCI.
3. Activity Guide III: Create & Access User-Managed Database

The next step you should know about is User-managed solutions that are bare metal, virtual machine, and Exadata DB systems that you can customize with the resources and settings that meet your needs.
This Activity Guide helps you in creating 12c Database in OCI & accessing via putty
4. Activity Guide IV: Create & Access Autonomous Database
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s Autonomous Database Service is a fully managed, pre-configured database environment. You do not need to configure or manage any hardware or install any software. After provisioning, you can scale the number of CPU cores or the storage capacity of the database at any time without impacting availability or performance.
This Activity Guide helps you in creating and accessing an autonomous database via SQL Developer
To know more about Database In Oracle Cloud Infrastructure check our previous post on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure: Database Offerings
5. Activity Guide V: Connecting SQL Developer To ADW and Creating Tables
Once you successfully provision the Autonomous Data Warehouse, then the next task will be connecting to that Autonomous Data Warehouse instance and perform the required actions.
So, in this Activity Guide, we discuss the Steps to Download, Install SQL Developer and then connect to ADW instance using SQL Developer. Also, Creating Tables in Autonomous Data Warehouse.
6. Activity Guide VI: Loading Data Into Autonomous Data Warehouse
Once you are done with provisioning ADW instance and connecting to the instance, then you should know How to Create Users and Groups and How to load data into your Autonomous Data Warehouse Instance.
In this Activity Guide, you will create the IAM User, group and required policy and then load the required data into your Autonomous Data Warehouse Instance using DBMS_CLOUD Utility after connecting via SQL Developer.
7. Activity Guide VII: Running Query On Sample Data
Next task, you should know How to Query the Data in an Autonomous Data Warehouse. In this Activity Guide, we will share the steps to run queries on Sample Data in Autonomous Data Warehouse.
8. Activity Guide VIII: Performance Tuning and Monitoring
Next, as a DBA, you should be aware of how to Monitor the Autonomous Database for Performance and when required, how to do the Performance Tuning.
In this Activity Guide, we will be covering the steps to use Service Console to Monitor the Performance of Autonomous Database and looking into various aspects such as CPU Utilisation, Running SQL Statements & Average SQL Statement Response Time.
9. Activity Guide IX: Managing DB System (Start, Stop Scale-Up/Down) & DBCLI
Then we learn how to Manage Database on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), which includes Start / Stop Database, Scale Up & Scale Down database, and will also see how will you manage the database from DBCLI a command-line utility.
10. Activity Guide X: Monitoring Database on OCI Using EM Express
By Default for Security reasons ports are disabled when you create your database in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, in this activity guide we will be opening port for EM express, configuring and accessing EM Express in DB System in OCI.
11. Activity Guide XI: Patching DB System Using Console & CLI
In this activity guide, you will be performing one of the common tasks for DBA’s, which is patching from Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console and the command-line interface both.
12. Lab Activity Guide XII: Backup & Restore DB System
We then move to how you can Backup & Restore Database that is On Cloud to Cloud Object Storage, Creating an On-Demand Backup of Database, and Restoring from the Backup.
13. Activity Guide XIII: Migrate (Lift & Shift) Oracle Database Using Import Export into ADW
We now move to, How we can Lift Shift On-Premise To Cloud Migration (OCI)Using DataPump Export/Import, A variety of methods exist for migrating data from on-premises databases to databases in the DB System in OCI.
These include Data Pump export and import, exporting to external tables, remote cloning, and unplugging and plugging databases. Some of these methods support migrating on-premises 11g to cloud 11g, some support migrating on-premises 12c to cloud 12c, and some methods support migrating and upgrading on-premises 11gR2 to cloud12c.
The above guide makes your learning & understanding the concepts of Oracle Database Cloud Service much easier and helps in qualifying Oracle database Cloud Service 1Z0-998 Certification in one go.
