Oracle Enterprise Manager: 7 Robust Features to Put in Action

Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM) brings your Oracle deployments together in a single management, monitoring, and automation dashboard. Oracle developed it, so OEM has deep integration with many of its technologies. This solution supports monitoring and managing on-premises and cloud-based Oracle databases, as well as non-Oracle databases. OEM is a cost-effective and centralized tool to manage IT environments with a mix of database platforms.

The single point of control is appealing for complex enterprise infrastructures, especially when they’re heavily invested in Oracle technologies. Out-of-the-box monitoring and reporting templates cover many common use cases and simplify the configuration of management automation for databases, applications, and more. This presentation takes on a brief history of OEM and then does a deep dive into seven robust features organizations should consider implementing.
