Antje,

Before you determine the number CPU's, you need to talk to your
Oracle rep about your proposed DW and determine how they will
make you license it.

If you're not already under some kind of license that covers existing
users on a new system, Oracle will likely tell you that you need to 
license per CPU.

If that's the case, you might consider going with the fastest CPU's you
can get, and limiting it to 2 CPU's.  With that number of users and a 
fairly small DW, you would most likely be fine.

Of course, I don't know anything about your requirements, but I do
know that an EE license is $40k U.S. per CPU, which can really eat
into the budget for a small project.

HTH

Jared

Hi,
I was asked to give some hint for the hardware for a data warheouse 
running
on Win 2k and holding about 20-40 GB data.
Project will have about 40 small and 7-8 large tables.  Users <20. 
Probably
long running queries.
Which hardware would you use? How many processors?  Which disks? 
The os-system is set and cannot be Unix/Linux  according to management
decision.
Any tips/recommendations appreciated 
Antje Sackwitz
