Is IBM Guardium supported on oracle Exadata machine

in Exadata General (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered

IBM Guardium S-TAP agent needs to be installed on Oracle Exadata. The Guardium S-TAP is a lightweight software agent installed on database servers. For data activity monitoring, the S-TAP monitors activity between the client and the database and forwards that information to the Guardium collector.

So, the agent is installed on the Operating system hosting Oracle Exadata and does not require / make changes on the database level.

 

What gets installed as part of S-TAP Agent Installation –

As mentioned above, S-TAP will be installed on the OS level. K-TAP is a kernel module that is installed into the operating system as part of S-TAP installation. When enabled, it observes access to a database server by hooking into the mechanisms that are used to communicate between the database client and server.

Howdy, Stranger!
