Re: DB Server and Application server on Same Hardware

You can run both the Oracle database and iAS on the same server. You need to install the software in different ORACLE_HOME directories though. Keep in mind that both pieces of software can be extremely resource hungry (CPU, memory, disk). So you'll have to keep an eye on your resources to make sure that you have enough. This is why the recommendation is to use seperate machines.

Personally, I'd stick with two servers to make two tiers in your architecture. But it is possible to use only one machine.
