Tuning

The default tuning parameters available for the Oracle NoSQL Database software should in general be acceptable for production systems, and so do not require any tuning. However, the underlying operating system will have default values for various kernel parameters which require modification in order to achieve the best possible performance for your store's installation.

This appendix identifies the kernel parameters and other system tuning that you should manage when installing a production store. By this, we mean any store whose performance is considered critical. Evaluation systems installed into a lab environment probably do not need this level of tuning unless you are using those systems to measure the store's performance.

Note:

Oracle NoSQL Database is most frequently installed on Linux systems, and so that is what this appendix focuses on.
