Precision on "Write Intensive" applications

Hi,
We dont have experience with Oracle so far.
From Oracle faq, I saw the information "...RAID 5 is good for read intensive, but not write intensive applications."
What is write intensive application? We are planning to have 200-300 mb of transactions per day in a database.
Thanks.
Claude

this is a topic that generates significant debate. based on my experiences, the oracle documentation i have read, and input from large disk manufacturers, i generally recommend raid-1 for many of the reasons mentioned in the previous response.
databases typically use random, low-block-size (16k and under) i/o that is better suited for raid-1. raid-5 excels in highly sequential, large block size operations. even though raid-1 "costs" more in acquisition cost, i believe the relatively low cost of disk storage is worth the extra price in terms of the performance benefit you will receive (in both normal and in degraded modes) for larger, higher volume databases.
no matter what raid mode you use, most raid controllers allow you to enable write caching, which can speed the performance of write operations. make sure you have battery backup on your hardware if you enable this option.
another very important factor you should address is the distribution of your raid arrays over multiple host channels. this means that you should not hang all of your oracle data off of a single scsi or fiber disk bus. distributing your data over multiple buses also opens up the ability to store frequently-accessed data on faster disk. so you could use a combination of raid-1 and raid-5 if you wanted to compromise. but you always have to be monitoring the i/o performance of your hardware and database, so you can balance the i/o appropriately.

  • How to write a application using WDJ with the adobe form ?

    Hi, experts,
    I don't know how to write a application using !!webdynpro for java!! with the adobe form so that I can fill data to the adobe form and get data from the adobe form.
    Note: I have configed the ADS(adobe document services),and I can create a application with a interactiveform in webdynpro for abap and run it successfully, so that I can  fill data to the adobe form and get data from the adobe form.
    Do you give me some hint?

  • Error on Mac: couldn't write  the application to the hard drive

    A Mac user can load the Connect meeting interface but when he
    tries to share screen he gets a pop-up that says:
    "Couldn't write the application to the hard drive. Please
    verify the hard disk is available" with options to retry or cancel.
    On retry same error.
    Any idea of what is going on and how to fix it?
    thanks

    Hi rpembroke,
    I don't know if this will help you or not.  I found the fix for me, for this problem and several others I was having.
    I created, or I should say, since I am still working on this, a new user account.  Once I created a new account and tried to install no more can't install to harddrive. Many of the other problems I was having are now gone also.
    I am in the process of moving over just what I need as far as apps, docs, book marks etc... So far everything is working fine. So you can try creating a new account and see.
    Hope this works for you.

  • How do I write javacard applications and run them in Eclipse 4.2

    Greetings-
    I have seen some content online about javacard on older versions of Eclipse. I like to ask if it is possible to write javacard applications in Eclipse 4.2? I have an Android development environment, which is basically the bundle that Google provides. I want to know if it is possible for me to use this instance of Eclipse. If not, which version of Eclipse is the one to go with please?

    I will recommend you this plugin (JCDE for eclipse)
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/eclipse-jcde/
    Note that it will only work with JavaCard framework 2.2.2, I am developing applets on Eclipse Kepler (4.2 probably).
    If you dont want to use this plugin, I suggest you try to find or write ANT script which would convert your class files into cap. You would be implementing the applet using standard Java project.

  • Trying to write an application to mount Windows Share in osx

    Hello,
    I am very new to the osx environment and I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. I have a decent amount of programming experience in windows environment, but absolutely no experience writing apps for osx. I would like to write an application that users can launch, enter their credentials and connect to a windows share which I have already designated for them. I can easily do this in automator, however I was hoping to create something where there is a little less confusion. I haven't had any luck finding any resources on this topic and I was hoping someone could give me a little guidance. thanks for your time.

    I managed to make it work.
    I did entry as below in /etc/fstab
    //192.168.1.1/RHEL5 /mnt/win cifs credentials=/etc/
    smbcred 0 0
    run
    mount -a
    /etc/smbcred file contains username and password
    now it is mounted as read write mode.

  • RMBP and Freezing during Graphics Intense Applications

    Hi all,
      I have a MBP Retina and whenever I try to run Civilization V or Aperture Full Screen (or anything else that requires switching to the nVidia graphics), my computer completely freezes in place.  This means everything can display on the screen, but everything just stops.  If I was listening to iTunes while doing whatever activity it suddenly stops playing, along with the application I am using.  Mouse is completely frozen.  Is it a software problem?  Should I go spend some time getting it replaced at the Apple Store?
    Thanks.
    -Dave

    Hey Dave,
    I've been experiencing the same exact issue. I also noticed when using an external display that the screen will show some static for a couple seconds then everything will work as intended.
    Were you able to replicate this issue on the Windows partition (if you have one)? The issue is definitely heat related. If I use SMCfancontrol to keep the fans at a higher rpm while gaming or using a graphic intense application, everything is fine.
    I'm trying to figure out how to handle this.
    Thanks,
    Coupe

  • Safari Performanc while using any 3D intensive application

    Hello,
    After upgrading to Snow Leopard I have notice a significant decrease in performance while running Safari if I also have any 3d intensive application also running. For example when I have World of Warcraft open I usually have Safari open in the background. This is near impossible now since upgrading to Snow Leopard. I have not had any issues until after the upgrade. I did find a post over on the WoW forums of another user experiencing something similar. I have not changed any settings since upgrading. I also experienced lock up and had to "manually" hard reset my iMac. I have sufficient harware, 2.66 core 2 duo proc, and 4GB of memory. Anyone experiencing similar problems? As I said before I had NO issues before upgrading, in fact I would have WoW, iTunes, Safari, and Adium all up at the same time with no performance degredation.
    You comments are welcome and appreciated.

  • Exadata IOPS for write intensive system

    Hi
    Exadata half rack advt that the disk iops is 25,000 .
    Is the advt IOPS of 25,000 for write ?.
    Does this mean that i can do 25,000 writes per second ?
    For high end write intensive system what are the typical writes you folks have encountered so far i have seen less then 7000IOPS in my whole carrer and i am interested to know whats the write IOPS on your systems
    If the write IOPS is very high like 22,000 IOPS then should i provison the flash disks as grid disks ?

    Hello hrishy,
    Your post brings up an important point: not all inserts are created equal. In a worst-case scenario, a single-row insert could require a redo writes, undo writes, and datafile block writes, and multiply everything by 2 or 3 with ASM redundancy. But if you can do large, paralle direct path inserts from, say, DBFS-hosted external tables, your throughput rate can approach the maximum dataload rate of 12TB per hour on a full rack.
    Ideally you'll be able to gather metrics based on either an existing system or a performance test environment. You cuold even do this in a non-Exadata environemnt (with the exception of hybrid columnar compression testing): just do your dataloads, and measure the IOPS volume and write throughput on disk, per volume of rows inserted.
    I don't generally recommend using the flash memory for permanent data storage, if just because, with even normal ASM redundancy, you're cutting usable space in half, and the only way to expand flash capacity is to buy more storage servers.

  • I want to write an application to call the servlet........

    I want to write an application to call the servlet.
    the application should perform like a html file , in which the html will submit a form with enctype="multipart/form-data"
    and the "post action" will submit the file to the servlet.
    I can write an application to communicate with the servlet, but I don't know how to solve the problem with the multipart file submission.
    So, what should I do? Any example code?
    Thank you very much.

  • Options for Bandwidth intensive application

    I appreciate any recommendations, I have a remote office needing to access a very bandwidth intensive application (scanned TIF images) currently we are looking at a 100Mb metro ethernet or DS3 type of link to our office where the DB resides. Are there any content caching products or new technology that would help me improve access to this application?

    in order to accomodate content caching as you've described you need, for an enterprise class environment, you'll want to check out the Cisco CSS line of content switches.
    a quick view of the CSS abilities for content caching includes:
    (taken from cco documentation)
    * examining network traffic for web content requests
    * bypassing the cache automatically for non-cachable content
    * distributing content requests to maximize cache hits
    * bypassing the cache or redistributing requests among the remaining cache services if a cache service fails
    * proxy caching capabilities.
    among other capabilities, this device would allow you to create a 'farm' of web servers where your content can be housed utilizing faster response times and high availability.
    please see the following link for more info on the CSS and its abilities:
    (there are other 'model' versions of the CSS than the one linked here)

  • BT Mighty Mouse become skippy when MacPro running intensive applications

    my BT Mighty Mouse become skippy when MacPro running intensive applications. Example, I was editing my photos with Aperture while I launch Visual Hub to convert a divx to Apple TV H.264, the mouse point become very skippy or sluggish. when Visual Hub complete the encoding the mouse is back to normal. is this an interfance or cause by running the CPU too hard?

    I'm going through the same "issue" actually so I hope I can save you some time.
    It's a grounding issue. You can experiment:
    - Touch your Mac Pro system while you're moving the mouse, or;
    - Touch your keyboard while moving the mouse
    If the mouse calms down and doesn't try to escape , then you have the source of the problem.
    I've read a lot of discussions on this, with people replacing their mice constantly, and even doing a full re-install. So if the above works, then your solution is in figuring out how to deal with the ground-ing problem.
    What's more surprising is that Apple hasn't addressed this (it seems) for some time now. With all the gyrations customers go through, you'd think there would have been some type of solution (a recall perhaps?).

  • How could u write this application?

    write an application to read an unknown number of integer pairs representing binary numbers from a file redirected input from the command line. do not use sentinel value or prompt.
    1. Echo print in colums 1 and 2 the numbers that were read.
    2. Convert each number to decimal for columns 3 and 4.
    3. Count the number of 1's in the numbers for columns 5 and 6.
    4. Find the larger of the decimal versions of the first and second number of each integer pair, and print that number in column 7.
    5. Keep separate cumulative sum of the decimal versions of the first and second number of each integer pair, and print that number below the appropriate column after all numbers have been read.
    Sample output:
    10 11 101 1111 111 10000 101011 0

    > hey young fella, its not a HW or something!! everyone
    talks alot here like they know everthing(which they

    application to c how many people are going to be able
    to write this application??
    That's a little tough to believe. It's far more likely that you need some help on figuring out how to go about writing such an application. There's nothing wrong with that; just know that most folks who volunteer to help here aren't particularly interested in "proving their skills" by way of programming "challenges". They typically get far more satisfaction by helping others learn Java.
    i guess u r one those fellas who dont have a clue about java!!! b/c if u
    were not, this would take ur 5-6 mins of time..
    So, do you have a specific question regarding those requirements? If you do, please ask. If, on the off chance you've got some special insight regarding an implementation, post your idea and get some feedback from the community.
    Also, please make the extra effort to write out words such as "see", "you", "are", "your", and "because". The extra keystrokes won't cost much in the way of time, and the enhanced clarity will be appreciated by those communicating on a forum with international readership. Also, it will give the appearance that you take your question seriously, which will in turn make your question look more interesting to answer.
    Thanks!

  • Write to application log in user exit

    Hi all,
    I want to write a collection messages to the application log in user exit EBIA0003, user exit for transaction EA00, but I only can write one if I just use
    message eYYY(x) with lv_msgv1
                                      lv_msgv2
                                      lv_msgv3
                                      lv_msgv4.
    It will be placed in the log after the exit.
    I've already tried with the BAL functions, but it doesn't seem to work or maybe I'm doing something wrong. Is there a way to write a collection of messages in to the application log in this user exit?
    greetz Pieter

    Hi Pieter,
    you can do using BAL functions if the lop is already opened. Try to find out what parameters the transaction uses for LOG access (handle!). Do the calls in the exit accordingly.
    We append messages to the current log using FUNCTION 'BAL_LOG_MSG_ADD'. If the log handle is not available, you might access it using dynamic assign like
      ASSIGN ('(<program>)<field>') TO <field> .
