Overview:
The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) wanted to reduce time and effort associated with applying quarterly Critical Patch Updates (CPU), which have to be applied within a month of their release and enable the organization to more efficiently provision new servers and software across various tiers - Oracle Enterprise Linux, Oracle Database, Oracle Fusion Middleware, and Oracle E-Business suite. The challenge was to ensure APL's new grid infrastructure is compliant with established security and configuration standards. APL implemented Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control, leveraging its grid automation capabilities to reduce costs and created a standard process to provision and patch databases in a completely automated, repeatable, and reliable manner.
