These dashboards are relevant for both transactional, and data warehouse environments. To view the dashboards, the user account needs to be granted the SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE role.

Oracle upgrades have always been a challenge - all the steps to take, all the preparation work for an upgrade execution, the testing of your applications with the upgraded version.

Network encryption is one of the most important security hardening strategies to be adopted in any enterprise infrastructure. It will ensure confidential data transmitted over the wire is encrypted and will prevent malicious attacks in man-in-the-middle form intended for data exfiltration. Network encryption guarantees that data exchanged between the clients (Application) and Database System or indeed between any two endpoints should be securely transmitted and transparently decrypted without fear of prying eyes. Moreover, compliance with mandatory laws like HIPAA dictates or highly recommends to implement tools of encryption of in-transit and/or at-rest data as protection from theft or malicious attacks. Oracle RDBMS Enterprise Edition offers out-of-the-box solutions to encrypt and secure over-the-wire data, and this article will compare two of these options that can be implemented in any Oracle database infrastructure.
