I thoroughly enjoyed this Udemy training. The sessions were exceptionally well-recorded and explained. The information provided is not only excellent but also incredibly useful and easy to grasp. The step-by-step practical execution was especially helpful in understanding the RAC technology in depth. I am very happy with this training—great job by the trainer! Thank you very much!

The course is very well explained and very informative. I have learnt so many new concepts and practice things about Oracle RAC. Thank Ahmad Baraka for your efforts. Please give some off on other oracle course to get benefit from them as well.

Although the concepts were clearly presented, I would like an in-depth knowledge of RAC. This is more of a beginner course to get you started in RAC database administration.

This course is well prepared with a set of objectives that are explained well. The practice demo and its documentations are well done too so students can do it easily. Thanks to Mr. Ahmed Baraka for this very informative course.

Truly enjoyed this course. Heaps better than the Oracle University courses. Ahmed is a brilliant instructor. Feels like having a big brother, coach and mentor. He explains well and his practices are so engaging to do. Highly recommend his courses in Udemy (have done the Data Guard one, looking forward to future ones). Bravo Ahmed, more power to you!

im truly happy with this training. The only way to learn is when we reason, all the lecture is very comprehensive and full of details. This is good stuff.
By Asif Saleem Ghazi on 12/13/2020
Yes, it is good for me for getting a better understanding about RAC along with 12.1 and 12.2 changes.
Still, I am learning and having a wish for searching a course about 19c RAC with Oracle EBS 12.2.
