Hardware sizing recommendations for B2B Server

My customer Welch Foods Inc. is on 11i Oracle eBusiness Suite and is planning to uptake the latest 1Sync integration features in the PIM product. For out-of-box AS2 connectivity with 1Sync - they are planning to use Oracle B2B Integration Server 10.1.2.3.
They have an average transaction volume of 30 transactions per month. One time - initial load of 20,000 transactions.
Based on the above estimates, they are looking for hardware sizing recommendations for the B2B server.
Your assistance is much appreciated.
Asmi Maharishi
SDM for Welch Foods.

Thanks for your reply!
Here are the responses to your queries:
1. Is B2B instance going to run alone in a box
Yes, B2B instance will run alone on a box.2. what will be the size of message
Messages can be anywhere from 5-20 KB3. how many messages will be part of a transaction.
It should be 2 - Registration and publication. But sometimes it depends on how successful the first “registration” goes. Typically we get one or two errors that the users go into PLM, correct and re-send.However, Looking at your current requirement, 30 transaction per month, we can easily address in a 4 GB machine itself.
Additionally, Oracle B2B supports 10+ messages per second in 32GB, 4 processor machine.
Memory suggested above is 4GB, does that take into account memory used by the 10G App server foot print or this is only to take care of messages? Also, how many Processors (Risk IBM) will be needed?

What ideal Win Server and Hardware are recommended for 11g DBs

What best Win Server and Hardware are recommended for 11g DBs?
- Processor
- Memory
- Storage
- Network
- Etc...
Following is the scenario:
- The server will be for development and test DBs
- More than one databases will be installed each for each project
- Maximum 4 databases will be accessed each time
- Maximum DB size for each DB will be in couple of GBs.

Which version of 11g ? For 11gR2, see the requirements here - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e16773/reqs.htm#i1011417
Any server that exceeds these requirement will suffice. Obviously the more the number of processors, the faster the processors, the more the RAM, the more the disk etc etc, the better.

Architecture Recommendations for disjoined radio set

I need some Architecture Recommendations.
I have a JSF page that is split into two sections. Basically you either answer the questions on the right or the questions on the left. But I need a couple of radio buttons at the top so that my user can select which side they would like to answer. The SelectOneRadio JSF object does not appear like it will work for me.
Do I need to just use the <f:verbatim> and write the html for the radio buttons within it? Then I will probably need some logic for maintaining state. But since I cannot bind the object to the backing bean where do I put that logic?
Thanks,
Tom

You should either write a custom Renderer (probably for SelectBoolean), or look for a third-party JSF tag that does what you need. Restricting yourself to only those tags defined by the spec is ignoring one of the biggest advantage of the JSF standard.
For example, you might use the Oracle ADF Faces selectBooleanRadio tag.

Hardware/software recommendation for video capture prior to edit on home ba

i am a FCP user on a G5. i need to begin to load and initially edit video while traveling and then take that FC project file and load it onto my home based G5 for further work. i am considering a macbook and FC express to accomplish this task.
my questions are:
does it matter that the new macbooks are intel processors and my G5 is not intel based? will i have any compatibility problems with SW/file transfers.
is FC Express the best SW to use for the load and initial edits?
is there a best practice recommendation for what i want to do?
thank you.
dennis
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.9) use FCP HD 5.0.1

FCP will run on a MacBook. It's not support, and the Studio is not supported because of Motion's graphics requirements, but quite a few people are running FCP on basic MacBooks. Just make sure it has enough RAM.

Hardware Configuration recommendation for SOA/BPM/OSB 11.1.1.5 Cluster

Hi,
Want to find out what is the recommended hardware configuration including Memory on the box. Trying to install a 2 Node Cluster of SOA 11.1.1.5 with SOA/BPM, BAM, OSB part of the same domain. All binaries to be installed on a NAS. OS is HP-UX. How much memory is ideal on each box if running SOA Service / BPM workflows and processes,BAM,OSB, Custom ADF Task Flow Apps with a large number of transactions. SO wondering what is an ideal configuration. IS there a matrix or a some kind of spreadsheet to come up with the numbers.
Thanks

Unfortunately there is no simple way to figure this out. The recommendation varies on the basis of multiple factors (from load to avg size of the payload). Please contact your local Oracle Sales Representative and they should help you out in identifying the best possible configuration/sizing for your system.
Regards,
Anuj

Hardware configuration recommendations for database and VM work

I'm looking for advice on system configuration for a computer to use at work for database, VM, and number-crunching applications. The database work will involve complex SQL queries against MySQL databases in the 5–50 GB range. I'll be using the computer for a variety of projects, and I'd like to configure and run Linux VMs on a per-project basis. The number-crunching will involve engineering applications, most of which will likely run in Linux. The database tables might be accessed from OS X or a Linux VM; I'm not sure at this point.
Advice or recommended reading on internal RAID, SAS, Fibre Channel, and the like would be appreciated. Would it make sense to have a large SATA boot drive that stores the VM and a second high-throughput drive array for the database tables? If so, what are some good options for configuring the latter? Staying in the $5k–$7k range would be nice.
Thanks,
Andreas

FileMaker is the best option if you want a good GUI front end. It's not free like MySQL but the price is worth it.

Hardware recommendations for Planning & HFM

We currently have Hyperion Planning 11.1.1.3 running on three servers (one dedicated for RDBMS, one dedicate for Essbase, and another that is running everything else (EPMA, Planning, Financial Reporting, Shared Services, Workspace, Calc Manager, etc).
We are going to implementing HFM and upgrading to 11.1.2 for our current components and I have reviewed the server sizing for 500 users (175 active) for Planning and HFM. I was wondering if anyone had any experience running both Planning and HFM together and if I need to bump up the server specs for anything to run both smoothly?
The EPMA Installation Start Here recommends the following for Planning for Windows Servers:
Web Server: 4 x 3 GHZ+ 16 GB RAM
Essbase Server: 4 x 3 GHZ+ 8 GB RAM
Other Services Server: 4 x 3 GHZ+ 16 GB RAM
RDBMS Server: 4 x 3 GHZ+ 16 GB RAM
And recommends for HFM:
Web Server: 4 x 3 GHZ+ 16 GB RAM
Financial Management Server: 8 x 3 GHZ + 16 GB RAM
Other Services Server: 2 x 3 GHZ + 8 GB RAM
RDBMS: 4 x 3 GHZ+ 16 GB RAM
The Essbase server for Planning will be dedicated, and the Financial Management Server for HFM will be dedicated, but if we wanted to share the Web Server and Other Services Server for both Planning and HFM, do you think we need to size these servers a bit more robustly to handle both HFM and Planning?
We are looking at 8 x 2.66 GHZ with 32 GB of memory for our Web Server, Other Services Server and Financial Management Server (essbase and RDBMS are sized fine for now), so I just wanted to get some input from the community before we make the recommendation to go ahead with that hardware.
Thanks!

Depending upon your Essbase/Planning Application you might need to increase the Ram. Remember you plan the architecture for 3 - 5 years in mind. Its a good practice to have variable like number of users increase per year, new applications, evolving data-set etc into consideration.
In one of the post, one of the expert suggested to have 2Gb per essbase application.

Hardware architecture for RAC

Hi,
I want to secure my 10g DB for high availability. It looks like RAC with 2 servers (instances) is the best option (?). Can someone tell me what is the best hardware architecture to use (Windows Servers). Is a SAN mandatory or can I just use a NAS. I understand how RAC works but I am just lost with the hardware.
Thanks !
Alex

http://www.fast-track.cc/teas_ft_rac28.htm
No 64 bit windoze, no NAS.That's a pretty old link. You can use NAS with RAC now, but it better be a high end system, like a NetApp. Of course, at that point, why not just use the fibre connections to the NA. shrug
As far as 64 bit windows, you can run 10gR2 RAC on Windows 2003 64 bit.
To the original poster, what's fueling your decision for RAC? Is your high availability need truly 24x7, or just low downtime? Just curious, as RAC can be more of a liability than an asset at times, especially for those that are not as experienced with it.
For hardware...don't go Itanium 2...those things are just baaaad news, especially with RAC. I guess it all depends on the amount of horsepower you need. Are you using Standard Edition? If so, you wont be able to go above two servers. If not, what is your budget? Remember that while RAC is touted for scalability, you shouldn't make your server too too small, or you may end up in a max-CPU headache.
Sorry, no other ideas on hardware, but wanted to clear up any misunderstandings about RAC on Winders.

Hardware recommendations for render farm?

Hello,
what would you recommend for a small render farm for mixed AE projects (mostly HD content, short projects with only a few seconds and layers and bigger ones with multiple HD layers and up to 15min or longer.)
is it better to have more cores (AMD opteron servers with 48 cores for example) or better more performance per core but less cores (Intel Xeon servers)?
And how much memory would be optimal?
What can you recommend for network connection to the shared storaged, how fast shall this be?

I like Harm's analogy better then mine. One prize cow vs. 20 regular cows. The imagery is very clear. In a production environment, where volume counts, more is better then a single top notch one. A single cow can only produce so much mik per day, no matter how extraordinary it is. But 20 can theoretically produce 20 times more (practically, maybe 17 to 18). Quantity, not quality. I'm not saying that you should get crappy hardware. Just good hardware, not high performance ones.
As you know, it's not because you buy a computer that costs twice as much, that you'll get twice the processing power. First of all, forget dual CPU computers for a render farm, it's not worth it. Get a regular quad core. As you compare prices vs. performance (do a chart), get the CPU that gives you the best bang for the buch (just before the price curve goes up).
I personally think 32GB is overkill in a render farm environment. 16GB is way more then enough. Remember that you're not doing a RAM preview farm (if such a thing exists), but rather, fractioning the render process to various computers. While 16GB is good, 2GB isn't. But 8GB can be an nice compromise. Remember, you're trying to drive the cost down of a computer, so you can buy many computers. But RAM is cheap, so, best bang for the buck, 16GB can be possible. Then again, it depends on other overall factors to keep the price for the computer down.
Network speed. Yes you could get 10GB NICs and a 10GB switch. But that can drive the price up substantially. If you can get a good price on them, great. If not, stick to 1GB. Get a motherboard that has 2x 1GB NICs on board, so you can aggregate the network connections together to get 2GB. You could eventually add a quad 1GB PCIe card down the road. The computer that has the project assets should have an aggregated quad (or more) NIC inside. You want to be able to push the media as fast as possible to the render farm.
Other things to consider... or rather, not consider. Graphic card is a non issue on a server farm. AE is all about CPU. Some mobos come with on-board graphics. Usually, it's cheaper, and consumes less power. You also want to drive the energy costs down when you multiply by X number of computers. Just get a KVM solution that will be able handle X computers. You don't need a RAID on render farm computers. A regular hard drive will do. I'd even go with a green drive that consumes less power.
And depending on how many computers you have, to reduce the footprint, you might want to get low profile rackmount casings and put them in a rack. Plus think of putting it in it's own room, because it'll be very noisy!

Hardware recommendations for Oracle server

I'm looking for hardware recommendations for a new Oracle database server. I'd like to have Active/Passive redundancy, so I imagine an external storage device is necessary. Does Oracle publish any hardware recommendations based on budget? I'm not sure what our budget would be but I can assume two database servers and a single external storage device in the $20k range.

Oracle does not publish any recommendations at all.
If they did, the recommendations would be based on load and expected performance characteristics, not based on budget.
Your best bet is to chose a vendor (Sun, IBM, HP, Dell) and ask them. Each of those vendors has a group that specializes in answering this kind of question.

Which jre & tomcat version do you recommend for this hardware setup?

I have to install a SINGLE JSP application onto an Intel pentium3 windows XP box with 128Mb of RAM clocked at 733Mhz
1. Is this setup sufficient for running tomcat?
2. Which version of tomcat and which JRE do you recommend for this setup?
3. Would I get better performance running Jetty, and if so which version?

The issue of changing native folder hierarchy and/or naming conventions has little to do with solid state media and everything to do with the container and header data that links the audio/video streams with the metadata and thus allows the content or "media essence" to be properly decoded and played. This is the very reason to use a tool like Prelude or Premiere's Media Browser or even Bridge or Lightroom or a third party logging tool like metafuze or shotputpro, or dedicated camera format software such as sony xdcam clipbrowser or panasonic p2 browser, redcine x, ect, as these tools all are designed to parse the captured A/V data and make properly syntaxed edits to the metadata either embedded directly into the media container or in Prelude and Premiere's case can also be written back to a sidecar or associated XMP file, which is a flavor of XML that contains all the original captured metadata plus any changes and/or additions made via these tools.
The dangers come into play when changes to the native file naming convention or folder hierarchy are done directly to the media content via finder on mac or explorer on windows, as changing at that level can break the relationship between the metadata stream and the media essence since the changes are not being written to the metadata or content headers or being handled in a manner referred to as transmuxing..
Prelude & Premiere's Media Browser both allow for looking into the native files non-destructively and safely modifying either the metadata linked to the native media or also allows for a transcode to be done which will then copy or recreate a new media file in whatever format selected along with a new metadata stream.
Prelude is a nice utility and Premiere's Media Browser an amazing tool for organizing, modifying and selectively ingesting media and or making quick selects and assemblies.

What are hardware recommendations for Forte 4gl 3.0.M.2 under HP_UX?

We are running into performance issues that seem to be related to cpu speed using Forte 3.0.M.2 fully compiled under HP_UX 11 on three server models: HP9000/D370, /D390, and /L1000. We see large numbers of select calls (at the os level) 200-300 in a 15 second interval, that pin cpu usage. On the D370 (Pentium 166MHz) the spikes last for as long as 5-20 seconds and our users are complaining. We have not had complaints (yet) about the D390s (Pentium? approx 240MHz) or the L1000s (PIII? approx 440MHz).
What cpu speed was recommended for 3.0.M.x? We strongly suspect we are expecting too much of the D370 boxes but need supporting information to make our case.

Hi Patrick,
I do not think your problem is CPU-related. What do you mean by select calls? If your select stament is a SQL Select one then what maybe is happening is that your data access methods are no longer effective due to an increse in the volume of data they are now handling. What I would suggest you is to find out which are the methods having problems and then find out what the code does. If you figure out the problem is the volume of data you are handling then you will have to change your code to implement a better data interaction.
Anyways... keep me posted... I will be more than happy in helping you out.

Specific hardware recommendations for PE12, Graphics for Win8.1

We are upgrading our video processing system from Win XP 32bit/ PE10. I plan on going to PE12 and need better recommendations for CPU, Graphics, Memory, etc than the Tech/Specs recommendations. Most importantly, does PE12 use GPU acceleration?

Not so much here, but over in the Premiere Pro forum several Adobe employees post to help people
I can't remember which one, but at least one Adobe employee has "alluded" to the idea that the specifications on the product pages are "market" driven to increase sales, not "technical" driven to let people know what they should have for EFFECTIVE video editing
The 1st configuration on the page I listed will work OK for P-Elements (it would not work so well for P-Pro)
When you do start using v12, lots of help links at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1275830

Hardware architecture of SAP ERP 6.0

Dear Expert:
Our customer want to know about the SAP 6.0 Hardware architecture,
Such as why SAP will plan DEV,QAS,PRD in different servers and why DEV modify and transfer to QAS ,and after test then
transfer to PRD.
and why our customer need to have solution manager , IDES , SAProuter......
I need some documents about these architecture,like a review or introduction.
can any one provide me those documents or ppt files?
thanks
Regards
Jack Lee

Hi Jack,
for getting hardware requirement you can check with sizing,
And SAP recommends to maintain 3 system landscape only to avoid risk....and this is completely depends upon the customer.
Now a days there are so many clients running with 2 system landscape which is also not the correct one and suggested by sap.
As in any ERP package there are differrent steps/developemnts the customer will have to develop everyday, in that situation this is not possible and highly risk oriented task to get it done directly in PRO.
So SAP recommends the customeres to develop the new developments in Dev, then test the same in QAS with latest data of PRO.
Then only implement the same in PRO.......This is the good practice in maintaining the database.
And as promoter of SAP, SAP AG reommends to implement SOLMAN etc.....as the only way from where the customer directly can contact SAP for any queries/downloads etc. These new products will enable many more functinalities like landscape maintanace, monitoring, ChaRM etc........Solman is the central support desk system from where we can adminster all the systems included in landscape.
*These are only SAP recommendations, not the restrictions in implementing SAP
