Summary
In this chapter, we got some insights into how Autonomous Database provides another layer of protection and high availability by enabling either a local or cross-region standby using the fully automated feature called AuDG. We came to understand the different concepts related to the AuDG operation and the different status changes it goes through when we perform different operations.
With AuDG, it was also interesting to learn about the different switchover and failover scenarios and how the operation proceeds either automatically or with manual intervention required during a cross-region failover. It was also suggested to use the appropriate wallet while establishing a connection to the primary database in a respective region. Please consider some hands-on practice to grasp the underlying concepts better.
If you have an interest in carrying out operations using the APIs or SDKs, you can refer to the public documentation for the AuDG APIs so that you can automate some...
