Friends,

we want to move all our existing prod oracle databases (around 20 instance, max db size ~500G) from our old h/w (non-VM) to new ones. HA,easy manageability, performance,cost being the key factors considered for the new machines , would like to know if VM(type-1) would suit our needs.

I was looking for "VM or non-VM" kind of articles (from a license, HA , performance perspective). But could not come to a conclusion. It's a bit confusing. Want to clarify with experts here.

Does Oracle on VM (type 1) have notable perf issues ?

Does license cost (or TCO) increase with VM/Oracle combination ?

Is RAC on VM widely used ?

RAC on non-VM or single instance on VM - which is good from a HA perspective ?

If VM is advisable, VMware or Oracle VM - which works best overall ?

Your advice and inputs would be very much helpful. Thanks in advance.
