It’s sometimes said that the true job of an Oracle database administrator can be summed up in one, essential skill: to be able to recover your database. There’s much wisdom in that statement. Of all the things you are responsible for as a database administrator, nothing is more important than the data itself. Like it or not, the fearsome responsibility of protecting your organizations most critical data falls squarely upon your shoulders: Lose that data and your company could fail.
