That’s not the idea, at all.

You consolidate instances of similar workloads, requirements into a CDB. You could still have multiple CDBs for each Application.

I wouldn’t dare using Oracle multi-tenant as a consolidation strategy, i.e. putting databases of different applications into the same CDB. The main reason is that, unlike in MS SQL Server, PDBs share the redo log.

Best regards,
Nenad

The major problem is that, at a list price of US$17500/core, it is a little difficult to ignore unless you have a ULA. It is possible to provision several substantial VMs in public cloud and still have change.

Infra costs are a fraction of Oracle licensing costs, never mind the non-discountable annual support subscriptions that nobody seems to want to bring up in TCO discussions.

I think Oracle is worth it, and so apparently do most of its customers, but additional licensing for the multi-tenant option is hard to justify without a ULA.

It allows you to share one large SGA on a server amongst a number of databases. Could save a fair bit of infrastructure costs if you ignore the mutli-tenant licence cost :-(

There are a lot of benefits with ROOH and not tying the database configuration files to a particular OH location. For those of you on 19c, we highly encourage you to check this feature out and perhaps already make the move, as you will have to eventually anyway.

All the config files moved to $ORACLE_BASE mainly because of the ROOH (read only Oracle Home) feature and that is the way 21c behaves. 21c OH is read only by default afaik.

So I read a little to understand why this change amd it is to separate the installation from configuration…. makes sense!

Looks like a step towards cloud….

When I try to create the database, it says it can’t find the init.ora file.

Is this a change with 21c? The environment is configured the same as in the past. How do I fix it?
