Dunno what you got for 4k, mine was 12k.

Still significantly less than the Sun, which is 
why I asked for it.

OK. I should try Linux with Oracle then. Cheap(er) alternative. Cheapest 
would be Linux with Postgresql/MySQL but functionality is not there yet.

Price-wise, is the performace of Dell better than Sun? Dollar/performance ?

How much (cost) is the Dell and how much is the Sun?

8.1.7 required a bit of work...
9iR1 never did work
9iR2 was fairly simple

The Dell is a fast machine with some nice ultra wide SCSI ports.

The Sun is a low end server.  

Dell doesn't have anything that will keep up with Sun's 
more  offerings.

2550 with 2 1.4G P3CPU/2G memory, with Sun 220 2Gmemory/2CPU, Dell is better than sun 
with regard to oracle responce time and os cpu idle time.
My application is cpu entensive and memory intensive, not much Disk IO.
While the Dell server is only about 4000$, Sun costs about 20K$.

Mladen and all,

I have a Dell 2500 with 2 1GHZ Pentium III's, 2 Gig of RAM
and 3 30 Gig RAID1 disk on SCSI.  

It performs rather well, and will run circles around a lightly loaded
2 CPU Sun 220R we use in production.

This is my own personal little DBA playground, running RH 2.7, Oracle
8.1.7 and 9.2.   :)

RE: LINUX and Oracle Corp.

2002-08-01 Thread Gogala, Mladen

Yes and no. If you put in a decent new Adaptec (AHA) SCSI III adapter, 
it will be capable of working with a 133MHZ or better motherboard and IO 
will be fast, even faster then on an expensive SUN 4xx servers. Of course,
we must be aware that people are putting sound, webcams, game ports and TV
cards into their PCs ant that is never a good idea for a database server.
Personally, I think that a big SMP PC with a few gigs of RAM and decent 
SCSI or FC/AL disk farm can easily service 2 or 3 hundred users. One would 
still need approximately $10,000 to assemble a piece like that, but before 
that, the prices used to have more zeroes. Of course, there is that little 
added  cost of  Oracle RDBMS which will be 2 times as expensive as the HW
it's 
running on and that is really what people don't like.

Main issue w/ most linux boxes is hardware: PC's stink at
I/O due to the Intel motherboard design. The net result 
tends to be a transfer bottleneck.

regarding the above topic but on a different note, anyone here on the
list that is on an Oracle/HP-UX OS platform for backend and 9iAS/Linux
on the middle tier? problems encountered? gotchas? stories to tell. we
are looking at this configuration right now for our Oracle Apps 11i.

Good luck.  When I worked for Oracle in 1998/99 they consolidated all
their
e-mail servers at Corp. in Calif.  What a mess.  Something was wrong
with
the hard drives that continued to fail and we would go for days without
e-mail.  The primary communication media at Oracle is e-mail.  This
lasted
about 2 months when they decided to replace all the HD's with a
different
model.
