I'm specifying a Windows server to run Oracle for (time based) performance tests of our application.
Although the total data volume & number of users will be low, we would like the performance to be comparable to a high-powered server which is hosting many users & much more data; in other words the type of machine a large enterprise client would have.
My questions are: - is this realistic, can we get comparable performance? - if so, any things to look out for in the server specification?
Many thanks
