A bit of a milestone here - Praxair went live on 9.0 on Monday. So far so good. Our environment:
Database server - Oracle 11g r2, Oracle Enterprise Linux, Oracle Exadata II server.
Web layer - six linux Weblogic servers on an Oracle Virtual Machine farm.
App server layer - four Windows servers. Two huge physical servers and two virtual servers hosted on OVM.
Integration servers - three linux weblogic Business Services servers running on OVM
Middleware layer - four windows Weblogic Fusion servers providing interfaces to numerous external applications.
One windows terminal server for power users.
Two windows servers for use with our Tidal enterprise scheduler.
Almost in production - a K-Rise web application server hosting a custom developer Supplier Self Service application.
The weblogic servers are load balanced with an F5 big IP application load balancer.
We originally built and tested six linux app servers, but those did not make the cut. We replaced them with Windows boxes. We had too many issues communicating with windows print servers and with UBEs with windows APIs to find the linux batch servers a practical solution.
In phase one, we moved over around 900 users from XE to 9.0. In upcoming phases, we will add in 9 or 10 thousand more users.
