Course Description

This course teaches you how to systematically analyze and tune Oracle database performance using proven methodologies and real-world tools.

Many DBAs are called to investigate a slow database or a sluggish session but do not know where to start. Others rely on increasing system resources as a first solution without understanding the real bottleneck. This course shows you how to identify the root cause of performance problems and apply the correct solution.

The course goes beyond theory. You will gain hands-on experience using Oracle performance tuning tools and applying Oracle’s performance tuning methodology step by step.

You will learn how to:

  • Identify performance bottlenecks in Oracle databases

  • Use Oracle performance tuning tools, including:

    • AWR and ASH

    • V$ views

    • SQL tracing

    • Real-time SQL monitoring

    • Enterprise Manager Express

  • Analyze wait events, statistics, and performance metrics

  • Tune Oracle database components

  • Tune database resource consumption, including CPU, memory, disk I/O, and network

  • Manage in-production tables and indexes for optimal performance

  • Use advanced tools such as:

    • SQL Performance Analyzer

    • Database Replay

Each concept is followed by practical exercises, supported by video demonstrations and downloadable guide documents. You will learn how to predict potential performance issues, not just react to them.

This course focuses on methodical performance tuning, not random tips and tricks. By the end of the course, you will be able to analyze performance problems with confidence, understand why they occur, and propose effective tuning solutions.

Join this learning journey and master one of the most critical skills for Oracle Database Administrators.

I feel whatever review I give, I will do injustice to the quality and content - this is because there is so much included in the course. I have completed this course and it's great and a must take for anyone. It covers a lot of topics and I feel I've leveled up. I've been an Oracle DBA for many years but Ahmed talks to you in an easy language and levels you up, gradually. The lectures are great, the practices invaluable, the content is a lot, the value is super great. - Just take the course! I hope Ahmed continues to make new courses. I've not seen anything like his courses in the market. I'm lucky he's a perfectionist, because that is how his courses are. Thank you Ahmed!

I have difficulties during preparation of this course. Downloading of the most important virtualbox-appliance is not working/clear. I asked for a solution, but till now i didn't get an answer. Hope this comes very soon.

A well-deserving 7 star rating... Course is practically designed in such a way that suits from beginners to advanced level audience. Although I have been working with Oracle technologies for over 2 decades, I found this course practically designed best suited for reviewing each and every practical details to help improve performance. I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to practically tune Oracle database instance at any level from learning to reviewing the topics chosen carefully by the instructor - Mr. Ahmed Baraka.

By Kenneth Baynard on 5/28/2020

I was going to wait until the end of the class to review but at slightly less than half through I'm posting because the class is so good. I've been a DBA for over 10 years and I'm learning new bits of information in most every module. Fantastic. Excellent.
