Disk space allocation guidelines
Setting up the database requires knowledge of resource and storage needs for each specific trial.
Disk space allocation depends on many factors, such as the:
- Number of sites.
- Number of patients.
- Number of forms.
- Timeline for trial milestones, such as enrollment, and visits, etc.
Note: Oracle strongly recommends using multiple disks for production servers. The more disks used, the better Oracle performance will be. Each trial should have its own set of tablespaces. This improves the maintenance and scalability of the trial. Database objects are strategically placed onto separate tablespaces to improve the performance of particular operations.
