This blog post is about a white paper that introduces the resource management features in Oracle Solaris and Oracle Database.
Who needs more hardware when under-utilized systems are sitting idle in datacenters consuming valuable space, energy and polluting environment with carbon emissions. These days virtualization and con solidation are more popular than ever before. And then there is Oracle Corporation with great products consisting rich features for resource manageability in consolidated, virtualized and isolated envir onments. Put together all these pieces what do we get? - a complete green solution that helps make this planet a better place.
In an attempt to increase the awareness of the resource management features available in Oracle Solaris and Oracle Database, we just published a four-part white paper surrounding Oracle Solaris Resource Manager and Oracle Database Resource Manager. Those resource managers are not really a product, process or an add-on to Solaris and Oracle Database. "Resource Manager" is the abstract term for the set of software modules that are integrated into the Solaris operating system and Oracle database management system to facilitate resource management from the OS and RDBMS perspective.
The first part of the series introduces: the concept of resource management, Solaris Resource Manager and Oracle Database Resource Manager; compares and contrasts both of those resource managers andends the discussion with a brief overview of resource management in high-availability (HA) environments. Access this paper from the following URL:
Part 1: Introduction to Resource Management in Oracle Solaris and Oracle Database
The second part is all about the available resource management features in Oracle Solaris. This includes resource management in virtualized environments too. The range of topics vary from the simple process binding to the dynamic reconfiguration of CPU and memory resources in a logical domain (LDom). The value of this paper lies in the volume of examples that follow each of the introduced feature. Access the second part from the following URL:
Part 2: Effective Resource Management Using Oracle Solaris Resource Manager
Similar to the second part, the third part talks about the available resource management features in Oracle Database Management System. Majority of the discussion revolves around creating resource pl ans in a Oracle database. This part also contains plenty of examples. Access the third part from the following URL:
Part 3: Effective Resource Management Using Oracle Database Resource Manager
The final part briefly introduces various hardware/software products that makes Oracle Corporation the ideal consolidation platform. Also an imaginary case study was presented to demonstrate how to consolidate multiple applications and databases onto a single server using Oracle virtualization technologies and the resource management features found in Oracle Solaris and Oracle Database. Description of the consolidation plan and the implementation of the plan takes up major portion of this final part. Access the fourth and final part of this series from the following URL:
Part 4: Resource Management Case Study for Mixed Workloads and Server Sharing
Happy reading.
