Performance and Scalability Considerations

While there are multiple ways to achieve the desired performance and scalability levels in Oracle Instantis EnterpriseTrack, the performance considerations are grouped into two categories: vertical scaling and horizontal scaling. There are several advantages and disadvantages for each category. Organizations can decide which category to use, basing their decision on:

• Availability requirements
• Short-term versus long-term outlook of system usage
• Number of concurrent users
• Desired level of performance
• Seasonality and frequently used application areas
