in the 12/28 issue of infoworld, alice laplante gives an overview of a system being designed for the michigan social service.
this system has central mainframes linked to office servers that support desktop pc's.
2 unisys 2000/644es mainframes
144 u 6000/60 servers (1 per office)
6200 windows based pc's.
the main contractor here is unisys, hence the boxes.
if one were to assume oracle as the rdbms and sun as the hardware source, how would one configure?
how to replace the mainframes...galaxies? would each office need a sparcserver, or could a sparc10 do the job? what can of problems would need to be addressed for oracle?
anyone willing to ballpark a configuration?
thanks
