To the Release Update and Beyond: Everything You Don't Know About Patching

Jun 15, 2023 11:00 AM CST

Patching Oracle databases means more than just applying the quarterly bundled Release Updates (RU) or Monthly Recommended Patches (MRP). Many DBAs aren't aware that RU and MRP aren't comprehensive. Databases remain exposed to critical vulnerabilities and regressions without supplemental patching. In this session, you'll learn to identify the types of patches that are never included in Oracle's patch bundles, how to search My Oracle Support for additional, critical fixes, and cover Oracle's recommended best practices for patching database and Grid Infrastructure software installations. We'll also describe the patching process, how to revert a patched database, and discuss steps for preparing and protecting systems for patching.
