Oracle AMC Service Components

Proactive DBA operations — from daily monitoring to quarterly patching and incident response.

L1–L3 DBA Support

Tiered DBA support: L1 (monitoring, alert response, basic queries), L2 (patching, performance tuning, backup/recovery), L3 (architecture, RAC administration, DR testing). Defined SLAs per tier.

Patch Management

Quarterly Oracle Critical Patch Update (CPU) application for Oracle Database, WebLogic, and middleware. Ogma tests patches on non-production before applying to production — reducing patching risk.

Backup & Recovery

RMAN backup strategy design, implementation, and monitoring. Regular recovery testing, offsite backup management, and cross-platform recovery capability. RTO/RPO alignment with your DR requirements.

Performance Monitoring

Continuous Oracle Database monitoring via AWR/ASH analysis, alert log review, tablespace growth tracking, and wait event analysis. Proactive performance intervention before users notice degradation.

Space & Growth Management

Tablespace capacity planning, segment advisor recommendations, partition maintenance, and archivelog space management — preventing "ORA-01653: unable to extend table" production emergencies.

Monthly Health Reports

Monthly Oracle AMC health report covering: DB availability statistics, top SQL by resource consumption, space trends, backup status, patch level, and open incidents with resolution status.

Why Ogma for Oracle AMC?

Certified DBAs, proactive operations, and transparent monthly reporting.

Certified Oracle DBAs

Ogma's DBA team holds Oracle Database certifications and has managed Oracle environments ranging from single-instance SE2 to multi-node RAC EE — across OLTP, data warehouse, and middleware workloads.

Proactive Operations

Ogma does not wait for alerts — our DBAs review AWR reports, monitor space trends, and validate backups daily. Proactive identification of issues before they become production incidents.

Transparent Reporting

Monthly health reports give your IT leadership full visibility — availability uptime, backup success rate, patch compliance, space utilisation, and a summary of all incidents and resolutions.

How It Works

Structured onboarding and continuous managed operations from day one.

1
Onboarding & Baseline

Ogma documents your Oracle landscape — DB versions, instance configs, backup setup, current monitoring — and establishes performance and space baselines.

2
Monitoring Setup

Ogma deploys monitoring agents, configures alert thresholds, integrates with your ticketing system, and validates that all backup jobs are running correctly.

3
Quarterly Patching

Oracle CPU patches are applied quarterly — tested on non-production, then applied to production during an agreed maintenance window with rollback plan in place.

4
Incident Response

P1 incidents (production down) trigger immediate Ogma DBA engagement per the contracted SLA tier. All incidents are logged, tracked, and included in the monthly health report.

Frequently Asked Questions

Oracle AMC scope, escalation, and onboarding questions answered.

Ogma's Oracle AMC covers: Oracle Database (SE2 or EE), Oracle WebLogic Server, and Oracle application support (Fusion, JDE, PeopleSoft). Specific coverage depends on the AMC tier and scope agreed at contract initiation.

No — Oracle AMC from Ogma covers managed operations and DBA services, not Oracle's own Annual Technical Support (ATS) fees. Ogma can assist with Oracle ATS renewal and provide guidance on support cost optimization, but the Oracle support fees are paid directly to Oracle.

Ogma's Oracle AMC is typically contracted for 12 months minimum. Multi-year contracts receive preferential pricing.

Incidents are logged via Ogma's portal or phone. L1 team responds within SLA, escalates to L2/L3 as needed. For P1 incidents (production down), Ogma's 24x7 on-call DBA engages within 1 hour (Platinum tier) or per the contracted SLA.

Yes — Ogma's onboarding process includes an environment discovery phase where we document your Oracle landscape (DB versions, configurations, backup setup, monitoring) before the AMC contract starts. This ensures continuity from day one.

Ogma provides best-effort support for Oracle 10g and 11g on a time-and-materials basis, but we strongly recommend upgrading to Oracle 19c (long-term release) or 21c. We include upgrade planning in the AMC engagement for older versions.

Onboarding takes 1–2 weeks and covers: environment discovery, AWR baseline collection, backup verification, monitoring agent deployment, documentation of all instances, and handover from your previous support arrangement.
