Oracle Dataguard Maximum Availability Performance

edited Nov 5, 2018 5:12AM in Database Administration (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered

We are doing performance testing for an application  which uses Oracle database (12.1.0.2) with a dataguard setup in Maximum availability protection mode (SYNC/AFFIRM).

The primary and standby database are residing in 2 seperate regions in Microsoft Azure environment.

The performance results with this setup is not very good.

We tried changing the protection mode of the dataguard setup to maximum performance (ASYNC) and  the performance has improved considerably.

Can the network between the 2 Azure regions where the databases reside be the reason for the degraded performance in Maximum availability mode?

Is there any setting in Dataguard or sqlnet.ora that can help improve the dataguard performance in maximum availability mode as the client requirement is to have minimum data loss.

Howdy, Stranger!
