Job Description

Our team provides complete Observability and Management for the Oracle Database.  This involves deep instrumentation of the database kernel to measure a very broad range of database statistics and metrics. We build cloud-scale infrastructure to efficiently collect, process and persist these metrics for unique insights and analysis.

We have built patented features to use this comprehensive telemetry data to identify normal and anomalous database behaviors and learn various insights into the database workloads. We have also developed technologies to speed up execution time of SQL, and to self-diagnose performance bottlenecks.

Further enhancing the manageability offerings, we have also built Replay Technologies to enable the creation of comprehensive performance tuning environments to allow realistic testing of system changes, such as configuration parameters, schema changes, upgrades and more before they are applied to real production systems.

Our team has earned industry-wide recognition by way of conference publications and patents for these features.
