Objectives:	Using 11g Data Guard standby databases for reporting and testing. See how to offload backups to your standby database. Increase availability using rolling upgrades.
Abstract:	This presentation is for those hoping to leverage Data Guard standby databases so that they can do more than Disaster Recovery using Oracle 11g features. We will see how to use logical, physical and snapshot standby databases for reporting, testing, rolling upgrades and backup/recovery. You will come away from this with an appreciation of how you can leverage your existing standby databases or perhaps provide compelling benefits that will allow you to implement this powerful technology.
