However, despite the testing, the new system often experiences unexpected behavior when it enters production because the testing was not performed using a realistic workload. The inability to simulate a realistic workload during testing is one of the biggest challenges when validating system changes.</p> <p><a id="sthref1" name="sthref1"></a>Database Replay enables realistic testing of system changes by essentially re-creating the production workload environment on a test system. Using Database Replay, you can capture a workload on the production system and replay it on a test system with the exact timing, concurrency, and transaction characteristics of the original workload. This enables you to fully assess the impact of the change, including undesired results, new contention points, or plan regressions. Extensive analysis and reporting is provided to help identify any potential problems, such as new errors encountered and performance divergence.</p> <p>Database Replay performs workload capture of external client workload at the database level and has negligible performance overhead. Capturing the production workload eliminates the need to develop simulation workloads or scripts, resulting in significant cost reduction and time savings. By using Database Replay, realistic testing of complex applications that previously took months using load simulation tools can now be completed in days. This enables you to rapidly test changes and adopt new technologies with a higher degree of confidence and at lower risk.</p> <p>You can use <a id="sthref2" name="sthref2"></a>Database Replay to test any significant system changes, including:</p> <ul> <li> <p>Database and operating system upgrades</p> </li> <li> <p>Configuration changes, such as conversion of a database from a single instance to an Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) environment</p> </li> <li> <p>Storage, network, and interconnect changes</p> </li> <li> <p>Operating system and hardware migrations</p> </li> </ul> <div class="helpinfonotealso"> <h2>Related Topics</h2> <p><a href="dbr_intro.htm#BABBDGIB">Introduction to Database Replay</a></p> <p><a href="rat_intro.htm#BHCJHEBJ">Introduction to Oracle Real Application Testing</a></p> </div> </div> <!-- class="sect1" --> <!-- Start Footer --> <div class="footer"> <table class="simple oac_no_warn" summary="" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%"> <col width="86%" /> <col width="*" /> <tr> <td align="left"><span class="copyrightlogo">Copyright © 2008, 2009, Oracle and/or its affiliates.
