My reply would be something along the lines of

"A transaction as you would like it to be measured is  best measured
in the application.  I can provide you with IO per minute, broken down
into reads and writes, and a number of other statistics."

What they are asking for cannot be measured from database statistics,
as the oracle concept of a transaction is a unit of work terminated by
a COMMIT or ROLLBACK.

eg.  SAP can provide the type of metrics they want via its BASIS
admin utilities.

I've been asked to provide value for the Transactions Per Minute
going through our primary OLTP production database.

I believe I can use deltas in SCN values to measure "transactions"
which do INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE and then COMMIT;

Is there any way to measure/count the number of SELECTs which occur?
If so, how?

How would you derive a value for TPM for your DB?
