We need to do a capacity planning/sizing for DB

Can you please provide any template/suggestion for DB capacity planning

Dear dba,
Database capacity planning will be based on the volume of the data that you wanted to load to the database.
For instance you are planning to trace the performance on the fixed line circuits. Take some sample performance files from the vendors and see the files' sizes. According to those file sizes estimate the average load and see the SLA for the period that the files will be stored on the database.
I have never heard of any template or a suggestion methodology for database capacity planning rather than simple calculations like sum, multiply etc.
Can you please elaborate more and we may have some additional information on your concerns.
Regards.

Capacity Planning Guide for OAS 9i

Hi all,
I really want to know about is :
"How much server/cpu/memory do I need to support n
number of users?"
So I can decide specification of server that I needed.
I've read technical white paper about 'Oracle
Developer Server 6.0 - A Capacity Planning Guide'
March 1999 and,
'Scalable Web Deployment with Oracle Developer Server
- A Benchmark Comparison of Client/Server and Web
Deployment by Retek Information Systems' November 1998
Is there other twp like that for OAS 9i ?
Regards
Yohanes

The document does not really give figures but more, the way you should plan to estimate your capacity - as such, the document is relevant for 10g as well as 6i

Capacity planning question for 11g DB server

We are building a new 2-node RAC cluster for our new application; what is the general rule of thumb for number of CPUs, memory?
env: 2-node RAC, RH5, 11gR2

If this is a packaged application, the application vendor should be able to help you with this sort of sizing since they know what factors are going to be most important to resource utilization.
If this is a custom application, you'd need to talk to the development and architecture teams that built the application. Without any idea what the application is doing, we don't even know what metrics to ask about in order to guess at the requirements. For some systems, it will be the number of users. For other systems, it will be the types of users or the modules that are configured. Some systems will scale based on the amount of data, others will be independent of data volume but will depend on the number of middle tier servers. And it will always depend heavily on how efficient the code is-- a system that is built to take advantage of Oracle and to maximize efficiency, for example, will require much less hardware to do the same amount of work than a system that is built to be database agnostic that hasn't been optimized for efficiency.

Capacity planning considerations for low volume iPad Policy Management

We're looking at placing a Mac mini in the DMZ for the sole purpose of providing remote iPad (only) enrollment services and policy management/enforcement. We have a pool of about 15 iPads with more trickling in here and there - nothing dramatic...
I know this is somewhat of a subjective call but how much horsepower would you recommend between the apparent $560.00 to $2k+ price range for Mac Mini's. We don't expect a lot of churn in the enforcement/policy management realm once the devices are enrolled. Yes, I am aware that Mac Mini's aren't necessary intended for use outside of the home (in corporate environments) but my guess is that a Mac Pro is overkill for the intended purpose...
Any all opinions, considerations welcome and thanks...

Using Dunning by Collection Strategy method, this is delivered as standard. To do so on your own, use event 1799. In the standard event you could see where this is being executed for the collection steps.

Need Help - BPEL sizing & capacity planning

Greetings,
We are considering moving our EDI processing to Oracle Integration with BPEL. I have searched high and low for sizing and capacity planning guidelines for BPEL (and B2B) but have not been successful.
Could one of you help me out with this - point me to links, send me actual documents etc. My contact information is included below.
Thanks very much in advance.

How to go about capacity planning for storage ?

Hi Experts,
How to go about Capacity Planning? For instance if clients wants to upgrade to new server and new storage and asks us how much additional storage do you need for next 5 years, how can calculate the amount of storage.
I don't have any baseline info about the server of past years. Where can I start and any scripts you guys use for doing capacity planning?
Appreciate your help.
Thank you.

Capacity Planning for workcentre employees

I need to do the planning for my capacities on SAP MRS board but before that I need to understand the capacity planning like Capacitive planning, abstract planning etc. or in other words like if someone can explain the step by step how to do the capacity planning, explaining all this will be a great help.

Gary,
Available Capacity:
Capacities is driven from the work centre settings in the Capacities tab (specifically the button at the bottom of this tab). These values determine the length of the working day, breaks, number of workers and efficiency - resulting in the daily amount of hours available at the work centre.
Capacity Usage:
Order operations are then created and loaded with work centre and hours, and dependent upon the operation control key settings, will then start to "consume" some of the above daily capacity.
Here is a comprehensive PDF document on the subject
Hope this helps..

Capacity Planning for External Procurement Material

Hi, I have the following requirements.
MRP Scheduling is getting executed material level (material no, plant) with scheduling type 2 which means lead time scheduling using MD02 Transaction Code. This is works fine for the Inhouse Product. In order to achieve lead time the functional team has maintained the necessary routing/workcenter configs.
The business needs the same functionality "Capacity requirements calculation" for the external procurement material. Business is willing to maintain routing/workcenter config.
Currently standard program (MD02) is not considering the Capacity planning for the external Procurement material.
Could you please suggest is it can be controlled through programming.
Kindly suggest the function modules for Capacity Planning - materialwise, plantwise.
Please suggest.
Thanks
Giri

Hi Giri
I think the requirement is not mentioned clearly. Capacity is required only if the material is assembled/produced in house.
Anyway try this. Set the Procurement type to X in the MRP views in material master. You might have to define your custom material type so that it does not force the procurement type to F. Try the feature called "Quota arrangement". The idea is to define the material in such a way that it can be procured externally or produced in house. With quota arrangement you can say what % has to be bought and what % to be produced in house. If it is produced in house then you can have capacity requirements.

Capacity Planning for Azure Managed Cache Service Spreadsheet Missing

I'm currently choosing between dedicated in-role caching and the azure managed cache service. It seems pretty clear that for in-role caching one must consider the cache access frequency when choosing the in-role cache size (as demonstrated by the capacity
planning spreadsheet found here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh914129.aspx although the documentation states "Your application
is the only consumer of the cache. There are no predefined quotas or throttling. Physical capacity (memory and other physical resources) is the only limiting factor.")
It is less clear if this is also the case for the azure managed cache service since the documentation simply states:
“Now, there are no predefined quotas on bandwidth and connections. Physical capacity is the only limiting
factor and you only pay based upon the cache size. You can now focus solely on your application and its data needs.”
and the capacity planning guide spreadsheet found here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn386139.aspx
does not lead the actual spreadsheet.
Is there some way to get the capacity planning guide spreadsheet for the azure managed cache service? If not, can someone tell me whether we need to consider cache access frequency (and not just size) when choosing the azure managed cache service?
Thanks!

Just kidding, I found the planning spreadsheets here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30000
That said, I'm still unsure of whether the data read/write frequency (bandwidth) is relevant in choosing capacity:
In role:
"Your
application is the only consumer of the cache. There are no predefined quotas or throttling. Physical capacity (memory and other physical resources) is the only limiting factor."
Managed:
“Now,
there are no predefined quotas on bandwidth and connections. Physical capacity is the only limiting factor and you only pay based upon the cache size. You can now focus solely on your application and its data needs.”
I'm confused because when using the caching capacity planner spreadsheet,
when the number reads/second is increased, a greater cache size is recommended. But why would I need a larger cache size if the same object is being read by multiple users and there is not limit on bandwidth?

Capacity Planning Metrics

Hi,
We are in the need to do a Capacity Planning for our database. We are planning to increase number of users from 250 to 750. Please help us what are the metrics we need look into it.
Database Size 4 TB.
Thanks,
Balaji. S

It depends.
Assuming that the number of users is a good proxy for the amount of workload on the database (that may not be the case particularly in a data warehouse environment where certain users are likely to be associated with vastly more expensive queries than other users), what is your database bottleneck? For most data warehouses (I'm guessing based on the 4 TB size), your bottleneck is I/O. So tripling the amount of workload is likely to require additional I/O bandwidth and/or more spindles and/or more RAM to cache more blocks. The next most prominent bottleneck tends to be CPU. So looking at your current CPU utilization and figuring out how many CPUs you need to add if your workload triples would seem reasonable.
Justin

Capacity planning of a farm.

One of the customer wants to try the SharePoint as Content Management & Collaboration solution. Customer has 225000 users, 10,000 active users daily. Users are across the global. I am working on Farm design. Since Customer is not sure whether they will
opt the SharePoint so I am thinking that I should purpose minimum infrastructure that can handle the load. Initially Farm wouldn't have more than 1 TB of documents. Enterprise Search will also be enabled.
Should I purpose single farm that will be accessed across the globe. I suppose this will not work since WAN latency between three continents might be the issue.

SOA - EAM capacity planning

I have been handed an assignment to prepare "capacity planning documentation" for what is termed "Enterprise Application Messaging"(EAM). I am looking at the documentation for Oracle Fusion Middleware and in particular Oracle® Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle WebLogic Server 12c Release 1 (12.1.1) which has some basic installation prerequisites. This is a good start but I know that there is more to capacity planning in the context of this EAM notion like for instance a database to persist messages etc and then there are the "speeds and feeds" to consider.
My question is: Are there any white papers, best practices or Open World presentations that are more current than the 10g documentation and presentations I have found on searching that would cast the Oracle Fusion middleware more in a "generic EAM context" than this 12 C product installation documentation I am looking at?

Thank you for the quick reply and the great links you gave, I am reviewing them before proceeding.
I agree, the EAM is a mysterious acronym...I'm not sure who dreamed it up, but to me, it means SOA and OSB and that is what we will be building in a new datacenter. I believe it may be a "home grown" acronym to try to keep from becoming too vendor oriented with our high level documentation...we have a bunch of Microsoft afecianados here who would like to place something like "Biztalk" into the mix, so maybe they got the powers to be to invent a more generic acronym.
Yes, I have also found that I need to look at the 11g not 12C docs due to certification issues, hopefully resolved in a couple of weeks I'm told.
There are some great diagrams you pointed me to and I sincerely appreciate your quick reply...thanks a million!
