Which of the Autonomous Database deployment options gives you exclusive use of Exadata
hardware?
D
Explanation:
The Dedicated Deployment option for OCI Autonomous Database provides exclusive use of Exadata
hardware, ensuring isolation and performance for critical workloads. Serverless (Option C) shares
resources, while “Standalone” and “Exclusive” (Options A and B) are not standard OCI terms for this
context. Oracle’s Autonomous Database documentation specifies Dedicated Deployment as the
option for dedicated Exadata infrastructure.
Reference: OCI Autonomous Database documentation, Deployment options guide.
What is used to monitor and analyze Oracle Exadata VM Cluster metrics in Azure?
C
Explanation:
Azure Monitoring services are used to monitor and analyze Oracle Exadata VM Cluster metrics in the
Oracle Database@Azure service, integrating seamlessly with Azure’s ecosystem. Microsoft Defender
(Option A) is a security tool, not for performance monitoring. OCI Monitoring (Option D) is separate,
and no specific “Oracle Database Management Tool” (Option B) is highlighted for this purpose in
Azure. Oracle’s multicloud docs confirm Azure Monitoring’s role.
Reference: Oracle Database@Azure monitoring documentation, Azure integration guide.
Which type of storage is used as a backup destination for an autonomous database provisioned in
Oracle Database@Google Cloud?
A
Explanation:
For an Autonomous Database in Oracle Database@Google Cloud, backups are stored on Google
Cloud Persistent Disks, which provide durable, block-level storage within GCP. OCI Object Storage
(Option B) is used for OCI-native deployments, not this Google Cloud-integrated service. Google
Cloud Filestore (Option C) is for file storage, not database backups. This is specified in Oracle’s
documentation for Database@Google Cloud.
Reference: Oracle Database@Google Cloud backup guide, GCP storage integration docs.
What is the purpose of federating the Azure tenant’s Microsoft Entra ID with an OCI identity domain?
D
Explanation:
Federating Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) with an OCI identity domain enables single sign-on
(SSO), allowing Azure users to access the OCI Console with their existing Azure credentials. This
enhances user experience and security in a multicloud setup. Options B and C (repeated in the
original) relate to networking, not identity, and Option A is vague and incorrect. OCI’s federation
documentation outlines this SSO purpose clearly.
Reference: OCI Identity Federation guide, OCI-Azure identity integration docs.
How does Oracle Database on Google Cloud make database management easier for customers?
A
Explanation:
Oracle Database@Google Cloud simplifies management by allowing customers to use the Google
Cloud console and GCP automation tools (e.g., Terraform) to provision and manage databases,
integrating seamlessly with GCP workflows. It doesn’t shift tasks to OCI (Option B), nor does OCI
embed a console in GCP (Option C). Option D contradicts the multicloud ease-of-use goal. This is a
key feature highlighted in Oracle’s June 2024 Google Cloud partnership announcement.
Reference: Oracle Database@Google Cloud overview, Oracle-Google Cloud partnership docs.
What is Oracle Interconnect for Google Cloud designed for?
C
Explanation:
Oracle Interconnect for Google Cloud is a dedicated, private network connection between Oracle
Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), designed to provide secure, low-latency,
and high-bandwidth connectivity. It leverages OCI FastConnect and GCP Partner Interconnect to
enable seamless multicloud workloads, such as running OCI databases with GCP AI tools. Option A is
incorrect as it pertains to Azure, not GCP. Option B focuses on on-premises migration, which is
unrelated to this interconnect. Option D contradicts the cloud-based purpose. Oracle’s
documentation highlights this as a key multicloud enabler announced in June 2024.
Reference: Oracle Interconnect for Google Cloud documentation, Oracle-GCP partnership
announcement (June 2024).
Which role is required under the Microsoft Customer Agreement to accept a private offer in the
Azure Marketplace for Oracle Database@Azure?
C
Explanation:
To accept a private offer in the Azure Marketplace for Oracle Database@Azure, the user must have
the Billing Account Owner or Contributor role under the Microsoft Customer Agreement. This role
grants permissions to manage billing and purchasing activities, which are required to finalize the
private offer created by Oracle Sales. Options A and B lack the necessary billing authority, while
Option D (Enterprise Administrator) is a broader role not specifically tied to Azure Marketplace
transactions. This is outlined in Oracle’s Database@Azure onboarding process documentation.
Reference: Oracle Database@Azure subscription guide, Azure Marketplace billing roles
documentation.
What does Oracle Base Database Service use in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to provide high
availability and disaster recovery?
D
Explanation:
The Oracle Base Database Service in OCI leverages Availability Domains (ADs) and Fault Domains
(FDs) to ensure high availability (HA) and disaster recovery (DR). ADs are isolated data centers within
a region, preventing single points of failure, while FDs are subdivisions within an AD, further isolating
hardware for redundancy. Availability Sets and Zones (Options A and B) are Azure-specific terms, and
Geography (Option C) is too vague. OCI’s architecture documentation confirms ADs and FDs as the
foundation for HA/DR in database services.
Reference: OCI Base Database Service documentation, OCI Architecture Guide.
Which first action needs to be completed during the onboarding of Oracle Database@Azure?
C
Explanation:
The first step in onboarding Oracle Database@Azure is consulting Oracle Sales to negotiate a price
agreement, resulting in a Private Offer in the Azure Marketplace. This purchase is a prerequisite
before technical onboarding steps like linking accounts (Option A, optional) or using an Azure
subscription (Option B, a requirement but not the first action) can proceed. Option D misplaces the
sequence, as the private offer purchase initiates onboarding. Oracle’s official onboarding guide
specifies this sales-driven process.
Reference: Oracle Database@Azure onboarding documentation, Azure Marketplace private offer
process.
How can the organization ensure secure and efficient data transfer between the frontend
applications and the backend data warehouse in this scenario?
B
Explanation:
The OCI-Azure Interconnect, using Azure ExpressRoute and Oracle FastConnect, provides a
dedicated, private, high-bandwidth, and low-latency connection between Azure and OCI, ideal for
secure and efficient data transfer between frontend apps and backend data warehouses. Public
internet (Option A) is less secure and slower, even with encryption. A hybrid approach (Option C)
involves on-premises, not specified here. A VPN (Option D) is secure but lacks the performance of the
interconnect. Oracle’s multicloud connectivity docs endorse this solution.
