Oracle Database deployment Topology for DMZ

955417Aug 13 2012 — edited Aug 14 2012
Hi,

I have a query related to security of Oracle Database.
If database has to be exposed to internet via a web application, the normal practice would be to put the web application server in the dmz and have this server communicate to internal database server.
Would it be better instead to have some form of intermediate database in another DMZ, such that the web app server communicates with the intermediate database server. The intermediate database server in turn would communicate with the internal Database server.
Is this topology practiced anywhere? Would this be technically possible with Oracle 11g?

Regards,
Haze
