Oracle Database Appliance (ODA) is a rack mounted "all-in-one" box supplied by Oracle. It contains 2 nodes, 2 networks, 2 power supplies and a bunch of storage accessible to both nodes.
It can be virtualised or bare-metal. You can setup single instance databases, RAC-One (active-passive) or RAC databases (active-active).
A whole new set of commands is used to interact with ODA - oakcli.
For example to create a database on ODA, it's no longer

dbca

it's

oakcli create database -d <database name>

Useful ODA commands
