By: Teesta This survey yielded feedback from 733 IT professionals on Oracle system data loss frequency and remediation practices. Data loss can occur in any and every business system as a result of corruption, human error, or hardware or software failure. However, when estimating the risk level associated with an inability to retain data from a lost Oracle database, 79 percent of organisations report “no risk or fair risk.” This inevitably leads to an increased tendency to neglect data loss risk from Oracle database, log or backup corruption; Oracle ASM corruption; deleted Oracle databases, logs or backups; file system corruption; and RAID and other storage/server hardware failures. Further, 58 percent of organisations reported taking more than a business day of downtime to recover from their data loss. “From critical customer database information to entire virtual environments, Oracle solutions store valuable business data,” said Robert Winter, data recovery engineering manager, Kroll Ontrack UK. “Given their pervasiveness among the world’s largest companies, it is imperative that downtime is minimal.
