Hardware Requirements for Production Systems

For production systems, Oracle recommends to complete a sizing exercise together with your Oracle Customer Support. Higher performance hardware may be required, for example, in cases with:

  • High levels of monitored traffic
  • High numbers of concurrent users
  • High volumes of historical information

On the Mediation Engine machines, Oracle recommends using a RAID-10 array for the operating system and the database. A separate RAID-5 array is recommended for storing long-term data.
