We are in the prep stages to convert an application over to Oracle 10g on zLinux. Finally....
I'm now hearing requirements that the application will be on its own, dedicated, instance. We are trying to keep away from that. It could be that the Oracle type is thinking more about PC type servers than mainframes. If there is a valid reason, we can make it happen. But I do worry about ending up with 50+ dedicated Oracle servers, each serving a dozen or so users, each. Or course, if the database structure and/or the queries are poorly designed, then having most of the database in the SGA, can hide a lot of performance problems. <G> So, who has some guesses on valid reasons for having one application per Oracle instance. Again, a dozen or so users, the tables occupying about 1-2 GB in total. Thanks for any comments.
