Deploying Oracle Database 10g On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4
Red Hat Enterprise Linux has become the optimal platform for the deployment of high-performance, low-cost Oracle database solutions. This whitepaper examines the partnership between Red Hat and Oracle that led to these results and discusses the capabilities of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.
Oracle is a Red Hat Premier Partner adding their efforts to the development and optimization of Red Hat Enterprise Linux as the optimal platform for deploying Oracle solutions in the enterprise. As a part of the Unbreakable Linux initiative, Oracle has ported and certified its major applications, including Oracle Database, Oracle Application Server, Oracle Collaboration Suite, the Oracle E-Business Suite, and Oracle Developer Suite, to Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Demonstrating its commitment to Linux, Oracle also offers direct operating system and Oracle application support to customers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS and ES.
It is not by accident or without reason that Oracle has placed such a central focus on Linux. Enterprise Linux offers several advantages, key among them the reliability, stability, and capability of UNIX, but on higher-performance, lower-cost industry standard hardware. As a result, the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for an Oracle solution is lower on Linux than on other operating systems. The open source nature of Linux offers practical benefits as well. It gives developers such as those at Oracle and other independent software vendors (ISVs) transparency into the inner workings of the operating system. This transparency allows them to more readily tune their applications for optimal performance and reliability.
These advantages led to a natural partnership between Red Hat and Oracle that extends back to the development cycle of Red Hat Enterprise Linux v. 2.1 (originally known as Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 2.1) . Working together, Red Hat and Oracle have been progressively adding, testing, and refining the capabilities of the Enterprise Linux operating system. For example, Oracle and Red Hat collaborated on developing and testing asynchronous I/O code for the Linux kernel.
