Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: What books recommended for Data Modeling ?
Perhaps a bit late but I have just been cleaning up the email
As an alternate suggestion perhaps running Oracle under VMware with GSX
Server.
You can build a single instance of the training environment and then
replicate the environment to build multiple instances, A nice feature is
the ability to make each instance non persistent so that at the end of
training you can simply undo all the work done in the training class
GSX allows you to run as many instances as your hardware can support and
if they are willing to buy big hardware then a GSX license is probably
going to be cheap

I have not heard installing hundred database instances on same server. Maybe you should think creating one instance, and then hundred schemas in it.
