Course Overview
This four-day instructor-led course provides students with the knowledge and skills to capitalize on their skills and experience as an Oracle DBA to manage a Microsoft SQL Server system. This workshop provides a quick start for the Oracle DBA to map, compare, and contrast the realm of Oracle database management to SQL Server database management. Each module also provides demos.

Audience
The primary audience for Course 40045: Microsoft SQL Server for Oracle DBAs includes database and business intelligence (BI) professionals who are familiar with SQL Server 2008 and want to update their skills to SQL Server 2014, and become familiar with related Microsoft data technologies.

Course Outline
Module 1: Database and Instance
This module provides an understanding of the two major components of a database system. The database constitutes the files that store data, and the instance is the collection of server resources that provide a powerful, high performance interface to the data. It also illustrates how the two interact to provide data requested by the clients. Viewing the database and the instance as two separate interactive components of the RDBMS helps us to divide-and-conquer the vast set of topics covered in this workshop.
Lessons
  • Defining a Database and an Instance
  • Introducing Microsoft’s and Oracle’s implementation of a database and an instance
  • Understanding client interaction
  • Key database and instance limitations
After completing this module, students will be able to:
  • Clearly define a database and an instance within the context of this course.
  • Introduce some key differences and similarities in how Microsoft and Oracle implement the database and instance in their product solutions.
  • Understand client interaction between a database and an instance.
  • Recognize some key limitations of the database and instance components within Oracle Database and SQL Server products.

Module 2: Database Architecture
This module goes in-depth into structure, components, and contents of the files that constitute the database. To be able to manage hundreds of gigabytes, terabytes, or even petabytes of data, it is important to learn the techniques by which storage is viewed (physical and logical) and allocated. Databases use various hierarchies of storage structures such as blocks, extents, segments, and tablespaces to control storage allocation. The definition of schema and the objects that comprise the schema are introduced here. SQL Server uses similar techniques as Oracle; however, the differentiation from Oracle is in the functionality.
Lessons
  • Schema and Data Structure (Objects)
  • Storage Architecture
  • Logging Model
  • Data Dictionary
Lab : Database Architecture
  • Working with Filegroups
After completing this module, students will be able to:
  • Understand schema and schema objects.

  • Manage storage structures.
  • Understand how to build the database using physical and logical definitions storage structures.
  • Comprehend the transaction logging model employed to perform transaction recovery and rollback.
  • Distinguish major differences between the construction of the data dictionary in Oracle and SQL Server.

Module 3: Instance Architecture
This module discusses the memory and process architectures that are key to a database’s performance. The module goes into the details of the hierarchy of memory areas of an instance and its configuration. This module also describes how the various functions of the RDBMS are accomplished by the different processes running in the background. Finally, in this module, we look at the changes Oracle has made in its internal architecture on Microsoft Windows platform between 9i and 10g to exploit the advantages offered by the operating system mechanisms and how they compare to SQL Server’s implementation.

  • Understand Background Processes/Threads.

Module 4: Data Objects
This module examines in greater detail the schema objects introduced in Module 2. While all schema objects are mentioned, of particular interest are tables, the type of data they can hold, and their storage layout. A proper understanding of data types and storage architecture of tables and indexes is useful in many aspects of database design and administration, such as fragmentation, capacity planning, and so on. A mapping of the native data types from Oracle to SQL Server provides the student with a very good reference on what data types are compatible and what are not.
Lessons
  • Tables are the main objects that store data
  • Indexes, views, stored programs, and other objects are the support structures

  • The supporting schema objects.
  • Types of data that can be stored in tables.
  • Organization and presentation of data in complex real-world forms.
  • Storage organization of the schema objects.

Module 5: Data Access
This module focuses on how data is accessed and manipulated by the clients. Important concepts such as transaction, session, and so on are discussed here. This module describes the various commands available through SQL for manipulating data, metadata, transactions, sessions, and instances. An overview of procedural extensions to the SQL language available in Oracle (PL/SQL) and SQL Server (Transact-SQL) is given in this module. Cursors, which are data structures used to convey results of user transactions, are discussed as well to provide insight into what SQL Server supports and how they are used compared to Oracle.
Lessons
  • Introduce database components involved in data access
  • Introduce concepts of Transact-SQL and Procedural SQL as tools to access and manipulate data
  • Discuss transactional management concepts
Lab : Data Access

  • Define procedural SQL constructs and their mechanisms.
  • Identify query optimization by the relational engine and user overrides.
  • Understand transaction management.

Module 6: Data Protection
This module fulfills the twin tasks of protecting data against unauthorized access (database security) and also from the destructive interaction between authorized users working concurrently (concurrency control). Under security, the various features for securing and auditing the database are discussed. Under concurrency control, the most important topic is locking. Understanding the differences in the concurrency models utilized by Oracle and SQL Server is important in order to design and manage systems that can support a large user population, great performance, and scalability.
Lessons
  • Protecting data from unauthorized users and authorized users
  • Using locking modes to achieve concurrency and consistency
  • Implementing database security features
  • Using auditing features to monitor database activity

  • Implement security using the in the hierarchical structure of each.
  • Monitor database activity with auditing.

Module 7: Basic Administration
This module contains discussion on planning and installation of SQL Server. While basic duties such a creating, starting, and shutting down a database are common to all databases, the options available for these functions are the key differences. True to the words “Knowledge is Power,” familiarity with the data dictionary and the different ways a SQL Server DBA uses it compared to an Oracle DBA is an invaluable skill for any database administrator.
Lessons
  • Planning and preparatory steps for a SQL Server environment
  • Creation and configuration of an instance of SQL Server and databases
  • Characteristics of a database
  • Basic database maintenance tasks
Lab : Creating Databases and Setting Configuration Parameters

  • Identify the various states in which a database can exist.
  • Understand the data dictionary.

Module 8: Server Management
This module discusses the administration of various types of resources such as system resources (such as memory, processes, storage, and so on) as well as low-level database resources (such as lock, latches, queues, and so on). As these resources are consumed by transactions, it is pertinent to be able to relate user sessions to the transactions they are running and to the resources they are consuming or requesting. Given the significant difference in how resources are managed and utilized in SQL Server compared to Oracle, it is important for the Oracle DBA to get a firm understanding of what is under the SQL Server hood in order to appreciate and best leverage the technology.
Lessons
  • Server-level and instance-level resources such as memory and processes
