How do I open it?
Sign in to My Account with the email you paid with, then open this page. Your progress is saved on that device.
Do I need a RAC lab to follow it?
Every day has a lab task. You can use your own two-node lab, or the ready-to-use 2-node 19c RAC VM, which is set up for exactly these tasks.
Does it replace the recorded RAC course?
No. The hub is a structured revision and practice path. The recorded sessions teach each topic in depth; the hub helps you revise, practise and check yourself day by day.
