During this series of informative podcasts, we'll bring you foundational training on the most popular Oracle technologies. Let's get started! 00:26 Nikita: Welcome to the Oracle University Podcast! I'm Nikita Abraham, Team Lead: Editorial Services with Oracle University, and with me is Lois Houston, Director of Communications and Adoption with Customer Success Services. Lois: Hello again! We're continuing our discussion on Oracle Database@AWS and in today's episode, we're going to talk about the aspects of security and migration with two special guests: Samvit Mishra and Rashmi Panda. Samvit is a Senior Manager and Rashmi is a Senior Principal Database Instructor.  00:59 Nikita: Hi Samvit and Rashmi! Samvit, let's begin with you. What are the recommended security best practices and data protection mechanisms for Oracle Database@AWS? Samvit: Instead of everyone using the root account, which has full access, we create individual users with AWS, IAM, Identity Center, or IAM service. And in addition, you must use multi-factor authentication. So basically, as an example, you need a password and a temporary code from virtual MFA app to log in to the console.  Always use SSL or TLS to communicate with AWS services. This ensures data in transit is encrypted. Without TLS, the sensitive information like credentials or database queries can be intercepted. AWS CloudTrail records every action taken in your AWS account-- who did what, when, and from where. This helps with audit, troubleshooting, and detecting suspicious activity. So you must set up API and user activity logging with AWS CloudTrail.  Use AWS encryption solutions along with all default security controls within AWS services. To store and manage keys by using transparent data encryption, which is enabled by default, Oracle Database@AWS uses OCI vaults. Currently, Oracle Database@AWS doesn't support the AWS Key Management Service. You should also use advanced managed security services such as Amazon Macie, which assists in discovering and securing sensitive data that is stored in Amazon S3.  03:08 Lois: And how does Oracle Database@AWS deliver strong security and compliance? Samvit: Oracle Database@AWS enforces transparent data encryption for all data at REST, ensuring stored information is always protected. Data in transit is secured using SSL and Native Network Encryption, providing end-to-end confidentiality. Oracle Database@AWS also uses OCI Vault for centralized and secure key management. This allows organizations to manage encryption keys with fine-grained control, rotation policies, and audit capabilities to ensure compliance with regulatory standards. At the database level, Oracle Database@AWS supports unified auditing and fine-grained auditing to track user activity and sensitive operations. At the resource level, AWS CloudTrail and OCI audit service provide comprehensive visibility into API calls and configuration changes. At the database level, security is enforced using database access control lists and Database Firewall to restrict unauthorized connections. At the VPC level, network ACLs and security groups provide layered network isolation and access control. Again, at the database level, Oracle Database@AWS enforces access controls to Database Vault, Virtual Private Database, and row-level security to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data. And at a resource level, AWS IAM policies, groups, and roles manage user permissions with the fine-grained control. 05:27 Lois Samvit, what steps should users be taking to keep their databases secure? Samvit: Security is not a single feature but a layered approach covering user access, permissions, encryption, patching, and monitoring. The first step is controlling who can access your database and how they connect. At the user level, strong password policies ensure only authorized users can login. And at the network level, private subnets and network security group allow you to isolate database traffic and restrict access to trusted applications only. One of the most critical risks is accidental or unauthorized deletion of database resources. To mitigate this, grant delete permissions only to a minimal set of administrators. This reduces the risk of downtime caused by human error or malicious activity. Encryption ensures that even if the data is exposed, it cannot be read. By default, all databases in OCI are encrypted using transparent data encryption. For migrated databases, you must verify encryption is enabled and active. Best practice is to rotate the transparent data encryption master key every 90 days or less to maintain compliance and limit exposure in case of key compromise. Unpatched databases are one of the most common entry points for attackers. Always apply Oracle critical patch updates on schedule. This mitigates known vulnerabilities and ensures your environment remains protected against emerging threats. 07:33 Nikita: Beyond what users can do, are there any built-in features or tools from Oracle that really help with database security? Samvit: Beyond the basics, Oracle provides powerful database security tools. Features like data masking allow you to protect sensitive information in non-production environments. Auditing helps you monitor database activity and detect anomalies or unauthorized access. Oracle Data Safe is a managed service that takes database security to the next level. It can access your database configuration for weaknesses. It can also detect risky user accounts and privileges, identify and classify sensitive data. It can also implement controls such as masking to protect that data. And it can also continuously audit user activity to ensure compliance and accountability. Now, transparent data encryption enables you to encrypt sensitive data that you store in tables and tablespaces. It also enables you to encrypt database backups. After the data is encrypted, this data is transparently decrypted for authorized users or applications when they access that data. You can configure OCI Vault as a part of the transparent data encryption implementation. This enables you to centrally manage keystore in your enterprise. So OCI Vault gives centralized control over encryption keys, including key rotation and customer managed keys. 09:23 Lois: So obviously, lots of companies have to follow strict regulations. How does Oracle Database@AWS help customers with compliance?  Samvit: Oracle Database@AWS has achieved a broad and rigorous set of compliance certifications. The service supports SOC 1, SOC 2, and SOC 3, as well as HIPAA for health care data protection. If we talk about SOC 1, that basically covers internal controls for financial statements and reporting. SOC 2 covers internal controls for security, confidentiality, processing integrity, privacy, and availability. SOC 3 covers SOC 2 results tailored for a general audience. And HIPAA is a federal law that protects patients' health information and ensures its confidentiality, integrity, and availability. It also holds certifications and attestations such as CSA STAR, C5. Now C5 is a German government standard that verifies cloud providers meet strict security and compliance requirements. CSA STAR attestation is an independent third-party audit of cloud security controls. CSA STAR certification also validates a cloud provider's security posture against CSA's cloud controls matrix. And HDS is a French certification that ensures cloud providers meet stringent requirements for hosting and protecting health care data. Oracle Database@AWS also holds ISO and IEC standards. You can also see PCI DSS, which is basically for payment card security and HITRUST, which is for high assurance health care framework. So, these certifications ensure that Oracle Database@AWS not only adheres to best practices in security and privacy, but also provides customers with assurance that their workloads align with globally recognized compliance regimes. 11:47 Nikita: Thank you, Samvit. Now Rashmi, can you walk us through Oracle's migration solution that helps teams move to OCI Database Services? Rashmi: Oracle Zero-Downtime Migration is a robust and flexible end-to-end database migration solution that can completely automate and streamline the migration of Oracle databases. With bare minimum inputs from you, it can orchestrate and execute the entire migration task, virtually needing no manual effort from you. And the best part is you can use this tool for free to migrate your source Oracle databases to OCI Oracle Database Services faster and reliably, eliminating the chances of human errors. You can migrate individual databases or migrate an entire fleet of databases in parallel. 12:34 Nikita: Ok. For someone planning a migration with ZDM, are there any key points they should keep in mind?  Rashmi: When migrating using ZDM, your source databases may require minimal downtime up to 15 minutes or no downtime at all, depending upon the scenario. It is built with the principles of Oracle maximum availability architecture and leverages technologies like Oracle GoldenGate and Oracle Data Guard to achieve high availability and online migration workflow using Oracle migration methods like RMAN, Data Pump, and Database Links. Depending on the migration requirement, ZDM provides different migration method options. It can be logical or physical migration in an online or offline mode. Under the hood, it utilizes the different database migration technologies to perform the migration. 13:23 Lois: Can you give us an example of this? Rashmi: When you are migrating a mission critical production database, you can use the logical online migration method. And when you are migrating a development database, you can simply choose the physical offline migration method. As part of the migration job, you can perform database upgrades or convert your database to multitenant architecture. ZDM offers greater flexibility and automation in performing the database migration. You can customize workflow by adding pre or postrun scripts as part of the workflow. Run prechecks to check for possible failures that may arise during migration and fix them. Audit migration jobs activity and user actions. Control the execution like schedule a job pause, resume, if needed, suspend and resume the job, schedule the job or terminate a running job. You can even rerun a job from failure point and other such capabilities. 14:13 Lois: And what kind of migration scenarios does ZDM support? Rashmi: The minimum version of your source Oracle Database must be 11.2.0.4 and above. For lower versions, you will have to first upgrade to at least 11.2.0.4. You can migrate Oracle databases that may be of the Standard or Enterprise edition. ZDM supports migration of Oracle databases, which may be a single-instance, or RAC One Node, or RAC databases. It can migrate on Unix platforms like Linux, Oracle Solaris, and AIX. For Oracle databases on AIX and Oracle Solaris platform, ZDM uses logical migration method. But if the source platform is Linux, it can use both physical and logical migration method. You can use ZDM to migrate databases that may be on premises, or in third-party cloud, or even within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. ZDM leverages Oracle technologies like RMAN datacom, Database Links, Data Guard, Oracle GoldenGate when choosing a specific migration workflow. 15:15 Are you ready to revolutionize the way you work?

Start learning today at mylearn.oracle.com. 15:35 Nikita: Welcome back! Rashmi, before someone starts using ZDM, is there any prep work they should do or things they need to set up first? Rashmi: Working with ZDM needs few simple configuration. Zero-downtime migration provides a command line interface to run your migration job. First, you have to download the ZDM binary, preferably download from my Oracle Support, where you can get the binary with the latest updates. Set up and configure the binary by following the instructions available at the same invoice node. The host in which ZDM is installed and configured is called the zero-downtime migration service host. The host has to be Oracle Linux version 7 or 8, or it can be RCL 8. Next is the orchestration step where connection to the source and target is configured and tested like SSH configuration with source and target, opening the ports in respective destinations, creation of dump destination, granting required database privileges. Prepare the response file with parameter values that define the workflow that ZDM should use during Oracle Database migration. You can also customize the migration workflow using the response file. You can plug in run scripts to be executed before or after a specific phase of the migration job. These customizations are called custom plugins with user actions. Your sources may be hosted on-premises or OCI-managed database services, or even third-party cloud. They may be Oracle Database Standard or Enterprise edition and on accelerator infrastructure or a standard compute. The target can be of the same type as the source. But additionally, ZDM supports migration to multicloud deployments on Oracle Database@Azure, Oracle Database@Google Cloud, and Oracle Database@AWS. You begin with a migration strategy where you list the different databases that can be migrated, classification of the databases, grouping them, performing three migration checks like dependencies, downtime requirement versions, and preparing the order migration, the target migration environment, et cetera. 17:27 Lois: What migration methods and technologies does ZDM rely on to complete the move? Rashmi: There are primarily two types of migration: physical or logical. Physical migration pertains to copy of the database OS blocks to the target database, whereas in logical migration, it involves copying of the logical elements of the database like metadata and data. Each of these migration methods can be executed when the database is online or offline. In online mode, migration is performed simultaneously while the changes are in progress in the source database. While in offline mode, all changes to the source database is frozen. For physical offline migration, it uses backup and restore technique, while with the physical online, it creates a physical standby using backup and restore, and then performing a switchover once the standby is in sync with the source database. For logical offline migration, it exports and imports database metadata and data into the target database, while in logical online migration, it is a combination of export and import operation, followed by apply of incremental updates from the source to the target database. The physical or logical offline migration method is used when the source database of the application can allow some downtime for the migration. The physical or logical online migration approach is ideal for scenarios where any downtime for the source database can badly affect critical applications. The only downtime that can be tolerated by the application is only during the application connection switchover to the migrated database. One other advantage is ZDM can migrate one or a fleet of Oracle databases by executing multiple jobs in parallel, where each job workflow can be customized to a specific database need. It can perform physical or logical migration of your Oracle databases.  And whether it should be performed online or offline depends on the downtime that can be approved by business. 19:13 Nikita: Samvit and Rashmi, thanks for joining us today.

Trust is essential in every dental practice. But blind trust? That's where financial leaks begin. In this episode, Dr. Len Tau sits down with certified fraud examiner Julie Rentz to uncover how embezzlement happens in dental offices, the red flags most doctors miss, and the simple systems that can prevent thousands in lost revenue. Embezzlement in dentistry is more common than most practice owners realize, and it rarely starts with obvious theft. It starts with blind trust, lack of oversight, and small process gaps that quietly grow over time. Julie Rentz, a Certified Fraud Examiner and forensic specialist, shares what she has seen inside dental practices and explains why small teams, divided attention, and undefined systems create vulnerability. She breaks down how adjustments become the "black hole" of dental accounting, how repeated "mistakes" can signal intentional fraud, and why refunds and credits are often overlooked risk areas. This episode shifts the focus from reacting to fraud to proactively preventing it. If you want stronger financial controls, cleaner systems, and more confidence in your numbers, this conversation is a must-listen.   What You'll Learn Why blind trust is the number one tool an embezzler uses Behavioral and operational red flags dentists often miss Where revenue cycle risks most commonly occur Why adjustments are the "black hole" of dental accounting How to tell the difference between a mistake and fraud Why reconciling PMS deposits to bank statements matters How refunds and credits can expose your practice Best practices for handling cash securely Why consistent oversight protects your revenue   Key Takeaways 00:56 Introduction and episode overview 03:05 Why dentistry is a target for embezzlement 07:48 Behavioral red flags and blind trust 09:38 Revenue cycle risk areas 13:47 The black hole of adjustments 15:00 Auditing and defining adjustments 17:04 How often to audit reports 18:38 When a mistake becomes fraud 20:54 Proactive fraud prevention strategies 22:00 Refunds and credits as hidden risks 25:10 Cash handling best practices 27:51 The power of consistent oversight 30:54 Lightning round Q&A 35:29 How to connect with Julie   Connect with Julie Email: julie@verifindforensicsolutions.com Phone: 983-208-4613 Website: VerifindForensicSolutions.com

   What if your farm didn't have to "scale up" to be successful? What if it could stay small, seasonal, creative — and still feel deeply worth it? In this conversation, I sit down with a farmer who has intentionally chosen a different path: one rooted in values, flexibility, and creativity — and who's built a beautiful business around it. This episode is a quietly powerful case study. Claire and I talk about: Running a farm while not being a full-time farmer Letting creativity lead your product development Using one strong "gateway product" to anchor your marketing Why slow food, intentional processes, and values-based pricing actually work And how storytelling — not hustle — fuels her business growth If you've ever wondered whether there's another way to farm besides "bigger, faster, more," this conversation will feel like a deep exhale. Meet Our Guest: Claire Troemner Today's guest is Claire Troemner, who owns and operates Troemner Farm with her husband Matthew in Atlantic Mine, Michigan. Claire is a lifelong plant lover and cook who grows diversified vegetables, keeps a small flock of laying hens, and creates artisan value-added foods like sourdough bread, broths, jams, syrups, and Mediterranean harissa — all deeply influenced by her Sicilian roots. She also runs an interview series called The Dish, where she highlights local farmers, foodies, and chefs across Michigan's Upper Peninsula.

I wasn't even totally sure what should be in one.

This week on the podcast, I'm pulling back the curtain on something I've never shared publicly before… Inside Farm Marketing School, we've been doing a powerful three-month deep dive on rewriting your money story -- and today, I'm releasing one of those private "members-only" private podcasts here on the main feed. This is Episode 2 of that private series, and it's all about the energy of money -- how it flows, how it gets blocked, and why the emotional tone behind your money exchanges matters just as much as the dollars themselves. You'll hear stories from my own life, teaching rooted in two incredible books, and a practical framework for noticing where your money feels light, joyful, and aligned… and where it feels heavy, tight, or full of fear. Whether you're a farmer, maker, or small business owner, today's episode will help you see your relationship with money with completely new eyes.

We break down the evolution of the 8 Core Koncepts from their "Legacy" state to the modern system.In this audit:The Origin of the Disclaimer: Why TRG called gambling a "Morally Questionable Life Choice."The Wrestling Metaphor: Why it's not War; it's a transaction with a "Willing Partner."The $10 Survival: The story of Gabriel and the birth of "Casino Wisdom."The Option Play: How to book a casino trip during a global pandemic (The "No Harm, No Foul" Rule).The Broken Game: The legendary "Single Deck" story from the first-ever VIP Lounge.The engine is stable, even if the 2020 microphone wasn't. Let's run the tape.

The silver lining in spending so much time in hospitals with my husband for his heart condition is that I've adapted what I now call… a hospital bed perspective.   It's basically like this… If I was stuck in a hospital bed today… What would I be dying to do? What would I make time for? Who would I make time for? What would I prioritize?    It's easy to be in our routine and put things off or not realize that we aren't prioritizing the things and people that we really enjoy the most...   But all of a sudden, when you can't do those things, it becomes really clear what you would do if you had the chance.   At this stage of my life, I've gotten so clear on my priorities… What's important to me and what's not important to me so it makes it easier and faster to live life fully with this hospital bed perspective… What an incredible gift it is to be able to do so many things… we're just not going to waste it.       What the Hospital Bed Perspective Is The hospital bed perspective isn't about fear or negativity. It's about clarity. When your normal options are taken away, life becomes very simple. The noise drops. The distractions fade. What remains are the people, experiences, and moments that genuinely matter. This perspective removes urgency addiction, comparison, and busywork. It exposes what's meaningful and what has quietly been wasting your time. Ditch the little things- drama, things we should be letting go of anyway - they become obsolete.   Why We Lose Touch With Our Priorities Modern life makes it easy to drift. Routines become automatic. Busyness becomes a badge of honor. Important things get delayed because they aren't urgent. Weeks turn into months. Months turn into years. Without realizing it, many people protect work and obligations more fiercely than joy, relationships, health, or experiences. The hospital bed perspective interrupts that drift.   What Becomes Clear When You Use This Lens…  People Who you would want in the room. Who you wish you spent more time with. Where you may have been distracted, rushed, or unavailable. Time What would no longer deserve your energy. What would suddenly feel priceless. What you would deeply regret postponing. Energy What drains you that wouldn't matter from a hospital bed. What lights you up that you keep sidelining. Experiences Trips not taken. Conversations not had. Projects not started. Memories waiting to be made.   How to Bring the Hospital Bed Perspective Into Daily Life Using the question: "If I were stuck in a hospital bed next month, what would I wish I had done this week?" Running decisions through the filter: "Would this matter to me from a hospital bed?" Auditing your calendar to see if it reflects what you say matters Taking inventory of relationships you want to invest in more deeply Creating space for joy, presence, and experiences now... not "someday" This approach aligns your time with your values and turns clarity into momentum.   The Freedom This Perspective Creates Living with the hospital bed perspective naturally builds gratitude, urgency around what matters, and peace around what doesn't. It simplifies decisions, deepens relationships, and makes everyday life richer. It replaces postponing with presence and guilt with alignment.   Wrapping it up…  Most people gain this level of clarity only when life forces it on them. The gift is choosing it before you have to. You don't need a hospital bed to start living like someone who understands how valuable, fragile, and full life really is. You can choose that perspective now. And when you do, you stop wasting time. You stop delaying what matters. You start living in a way that actually matches what you care about. What an incredible gift it is to be able to go, build, love, move, dream, try, and experience. Let's not waste it!! 

  What do you do when your customer just… stops paying attention? This week's episode was inspired by a walk on our farm -- and a stubborn dog who found a vole in the field and completely tuned me out. Calling louder didn't work. Waiting didn't work. What finally worked was walking back out to her, getting in her line of sight, and offering her the right treat -- something she actually wanted. That moment sparked a powerful realization about customers who go quiet (and what actually brings them back). If you've ever looked at your email list or customer list and thought, "Where did everyone go?" -- this episode is for you. Customers going cold doesn't mean they're unhappy. It usually means they're distracted, out of rhythm, or don't have a clear reason to buy right now. In this episode, I introduce the concept of win-back campaigns (one of the simplest, highest-ROI marketing systems you can build for your farm). We'll talk about: Why customers go quiet (and why it's not personal) What a win-back campaign actually is (and what it's not) Why win-backs are much easier than most farmers think How a single win-back campaign can become a reusable asset you run year after year This episode is a pared-down training -- just enough to help you see what's possible and why it's worth doing, without overwhelming you with tech or tactics. If you want the step by step for how to actually build this asset fast, I have an entire project inside of Farm Marketing School on Setting Up Your Win-Back Campaign, including: How to identify cold customers How to build your win back offer How to set up tags and automations in your email provider How to write the emails (with templates + AI prompts) How to turn win-backs into a repeatable, yearly system

"I put myself in situations where I didn't have a back door and couldn't run away from myself. The natural consequence was that I felt lighter, and I'm finishing the year more proud of myself than I've ever been, with more confidence." In this episode, Heather guides you through her unique process for creating a personalized, focused plan for 2026 that brings real lightness into your life. But that doesn't mean bypassing internal struggles or heavy emotions, because you can't reclaim your time or create more peace without addressing your biggest energy leaks. If your goal is to feel lighter next year, while bringing on more responsibilities that move you forward, this conversation will guide you to work with the four essential energy types that support real growth, so you can release what no longer fits and move forward with more ease, clarity, and self-trust. What to listen for: ✨ 80% of how you spend your day is hiding, and why you need a north star ✨ The four types of energy you need to understand how to manage for growth ✨ Understanding the type of dreamer you are and how to work with yourself ✨ Why the more responsibility you have, the lighter you should feel "When you begin to embody this identity of 'the more responsibility I have, the lighter I should feel', your brain begins to find evidence of how that's possible. Because the way that you manage your time and energy is focused on how light you can feel." ✨ Shifting the belief systems that limit your ability to experience lightness ✨ Continuously and relentlessly facing the parts of yourself you avoid ✨ Living for others as a way to feel better, but with strong boundaries "You have to face parts of yourself that you've never, ever, ever faced, especially with that identity. And to be lighter, you have to let go." ✨ Getting radically honest about what you're sacrificing by holding on to stories ✨ Auditing the tasks currently on your plate to uncover what you can release ✨ Holding the emotional discomfort of learning how to trust and receive ✨ Why women often use strategy and information to avoid integration "You have one precious life, and if you're wasting time on a strategy that's not working, it's time to put it down. If you are wasting it on relationships or skills that aren't working, or you feel like you've outgrown a career, it's time to put them down." ✨ Using community support to enhance personal growth and accountability ✨ Understanding that fear can be a catalyst for growth if managed intentionally ✨ Creating a 'Wouldn't It Be Nice' list to help clarify your desires ******* For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me for a one-on-one Time & Energy Audit, a focused session designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life. We'll pinpoint your biggest time + energy leaks, identify the top areas to focus on for quick momentum, and map out exactly what to let go of so you can reclaim your energy, your time, and your joy.

Every January, we're told to start fresh by setting goals, building plans, and fixing what didn't work last year. But what if that pressure is the very thing that keeps us stuck? In this episode, I'm inviting you to try something different—something simpler, deeper, and far more sustainable. Instead of resolutions or rigid goals, what if you chose one word to guide your year? In this episode, I walk you through the practice of choosing a one-word intention—and how that single word can become a lens for your decisions, your energy, and the way you show up in both life and business. I share: Why one word is often more powerful than a long goal list How to discern your word (not the one you think you "should" choose) How I'm personally exploring the words abundance and enough this year Simple, non-overwhelming ways to actually live into your word all year long Homework Assignment After listening, take 15–20 minutes to reflect on these questions: What themes keep showing up in my life right now? What feels like it's being invited to grow or heal this year? What word feels grounding, expansive, or gently challenging -- rather than forced? Then: Write your word somewhere you'll see it often Choose one simple practice that helps you live into it (a habit, a reminder, a question, or a boundary) Let me know what your word is @mydigitalfarmer on Instagram!
