Overview of Parallel Processing
Oracle Master Scheduling/MRP and Supply Chain Planning distributes processing across multiple concurrent processes to maximize performance and make optimal use of machine resources. The architecture of Oracle Master Scheduling/MRP and Supply Chain Planning that enables distributed concurrent processing allows you to:
- Maximize your throughput by making optimal use of machine resources. Oracle Master Scheduling/MRP and Supply Chain Planning is designed to divide tasks across multiple processes running concurrently to allow you to do more work in less time.
- Take advantage of multiprocessor architectures. At the same time, Oracle Master Scheduling/MRP and Supply Chain Planning should work optimally, without modification, on single-processor machines.
- Configure Oracle Master Scheduling/MRP and Supply Chain Planning to run optimally on your machine. You can control how Oracle Master Scheduling/MRP and Supply Chain Planning divides the work across separate processes, and how many processes should perform the work.
- Take advantage of advanced Oracle RDBMS features.
