Well, there are tutorials online, but this is extreme. You can tell it is up by connecting a client like Toad, looking at the tables, data.
  • The big deal is managing the log, which is the database backup, and which flows from it as transactions modify the data.
  • Periodic full dumps are also wise and normal.
  • Databases need to have their file spaces defragmented and their staatistics refreshed to endure proper index use.
  • Monitoring and allocating space is an important aspect of the job, and attaching new storage as needs grow.
  • Occasionally or periodically, old data is purged. Big operations have rotating pools of partitions for tables, so each day a new partition is added, one of the old ones that had ben detached and purged of its data.
  • Offsite duplicate backup is a best practice.
  • There is the administration of user ids, groups, permissions and security.
  • You may have to do bulk import or export of data, ad hoc or in periodic batches.
  • Batch processing, scheduling may also be in your realm.
  • Developers often need help figuring out why queries run slow or do the wrong thing. Good luck!
