WP: Oracle Multitenant on SuperCluster T5-8: Study of Database Consolidation Efficiency
- by uwes
Consolidation
in the data center is the driving factor in reducing capital and
operational expense in IT today. This is particularly relevant as
customers invest more in cloud infrastructure and associated service
delivery. Database consolidation is a strategic component in this
effort.
Oracle
Database 12 c introduces Oracle Multitenant , a new database
consolidation model in which multiple Pluggable Databases (PDBs) are
consolidated within a Container Database (CDB). While keeping many of
the isolation aspects of single databases, it allows PDBs to share
the system global area (SGA) and background processes of a common CDB
.
The white paper recently published on OTN:
Oracle
Multitenant on SuperCluster T5-8: Study of
Database Consolidation Efficiency
analyzes
and quantifies savings in compute resources, efficiencies in
transaction processing, and consolidation density of Oracle
Multitenant compared to consolidated single instance databases
(SIDBs) running in a bare-metal environment.
