Testing is my number 1 reason for cloning a database. Nothing should ever be
put into production unless it was tested first. Frequent (weekly/monthly)
clones ensure that your test environment stays current with production.

There are other methods or products like dataguard for database failover. The
main reason to make a clone (copy) of a database is to test something on it
that you can't do on production.

Hello All,
Good Morning!!
Hope every one is doing great this Morning.
As I am a new DBA, a simple question strikes me this morning.
What is the main purpose of cloning a database. Is the main purpose of the
database is to provide a database failover ??
If that is case then we can go for a dataguard. Then why should we clone. ??
Thanks
