Abstract

Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) runs on hardware ranging from low-end PC's (including laptops) to high-end servers. Capacity planning or the process of determining the type of hardware required for a BI software configuration is needed to meet application and user needs adequately. This document provides capacity planning efforts for OBIEE solutions with a focus on the hardware requirements. It is worth noting that capacity planning is not an exact science since every application is different and user behavior varies. This document is intended as a guide for developing capacity planning numbers.
