How Can We Improve EBS Techstack Support?
Welcome to Lake Wobegon, where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average.
~ Garrison Keillor
The New Year is a good time for reflection. In that spirit, I'm going to try something different here. One of our regular readers recently made a pointed remark about his clients' general desires to avoid reaching out to Oracle Support unless
absolutely necessary. This isn't the first time I've heard this sentiment but it crystallized my thoughts on something I've been meaning to discuss here for a while.

Smoking! Running Apps 11i on the HP Oracle Database Machine
Like every sysadmin I know, I yearn for bigger, beefier servers for my E-Business Suite environments. I've been dreaming about the new HP Oracle Database Machine
since its unveiling at OpenWorld 2008.
In case you missed that announcement, this is a server with mainframe-class street cred: up to 14 GB/second in raw I/O bandwidth, which translates to up to 50 GB/second when handling compressed data. Storage scales up to petabytes when combined
with the HP Oracle Exadata Storage Server. This machine is optimized for handling huge Oracle databases, so it's inevitable that EBS customers with large databases have
shown interest in this hardware.
The Database Machine runs Oracle Database 11gR1 11.1.0.7 and Real Application Clusters on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.1. We've just certified Oracle
E-Business Suite Release 11i with the 11gR1 11.1.0.7 database release, so it's now possible to run Apps 11i on this hardware.

Top 2008 Techstack Articles for EBS 11i and 12 (Part 1)
Happy New Year!
It's been a busy year for us in the E-Business Suite techstack area, and for this blog, too. I'm very proud of our editorial team, which has grown to a dozen experts in
their respective fields. We've published over 160 articles this year, and we've fielded hundreds of your questions and comments (and even more of your private emails to us).
Thanks for your support. All of us, myself included, have to squeeze in time on top of our regular jobs to contribute to this blog. If you find it useful, drop us a line or post a comment to help keep us motivated.
2008 In Review
I'd originally planned to publish a single article rounding up the most important articles of the year. So much for that plan. This is the first of three Year in Review articles covering topics of interest to both Oracle E-Business Suite
Release 11i and 12 sysadmins alike.
