Oracle implementation in UAE is a challenging and risky process, fraught with risk and unforeseen problems. Experts suggest that the best way to ensure success at Oracle implementation is to use a trusted team of Oracle support providers with expert developers and smart managers who can keep your Oracle development project on-time and under budget.
The success to any project is a well thought of PROJECT PLAN ...
... at the very beginning considering the requirements and available resources. A Normal Contention of many people is that Project Plan should normally stage the Start Date and End Date and the Consideration, but in real time it is actually more than that, the whole project is broken in to different phases and for each phase a detailed plan is laid out which in turns account for the overall project plan. Project Plan must be revised whenever there is a Change in the contract or requirement of the client.
ORACLE IMPLEMENTATION PHASES
The Oracle implementation process consists of three phases:
• Planning
• Test deployment
• Production deployment
Planning
Implementing a CPU in your IT environment is similar to implementing any other set of patches. To ensure a successful implementation, it is key to have proper change management systems and processes in place.
Planning
As with any change, it is important to discuss and plan the CPU implementation with key participants. This ensures smooth execution. It is also important to assess risk and build contingency plans.
Test Deployment
Oracle recommends that you test each CPU thoroughly on the test deployment before applying it to any production systems. For larger organizations with many production applications and systems, the initial phases of production rollout can be considered an additional component of the testing process. However, this should not replace testing in the test environment.
Production Deployment
A few general tips for implementing a CPU:
• Ensure that planned downtime announcement page covers all the target systems before you shut down systems for patching. The downtime required may vary from CPU to CPU and from environment to environment. If you have large number of production systems to update, be prepared to refine the time estimate as you learn more about a given CPU.
• Ensure that you have a complete backup of the production environment and a restore strategy as a contingency plan for any unexpected failures.
