The database connected by the application user is called the primary database when data get this implemented there is another database running at a different site data guard Synchronizes any changes that happen in the primary database to the standby database located
If you are disaster occurs at the site hosting the primary database the service will fail over to the standby database.
In in this case application users connect to the standby database instead of the primary database
When data guard is implemented by default the standby database cannot be accessed until your disaster occurs.
However there is an option in Oracle database called active data guard with this option application users can connect to the stand by database for read only operations.
This is useful for allowing users who generate reports to access the standby database rather than connecting to the primary database, which would put more load on it.
