Performance of an OODB in an online 7×24×365 manufacturing operation

Abstract

A online reporting application which is used to report and schedule material on factory floors is described in terms of the realtime updates and scheduled maintenance. Performance issues for these parts of the system are described by the various parts. The online feeds are described in terms of tuning each part according to function. DBA type functions such as clustering of data and backups are described. The best tuning came from breaking the functions into definable parts which could then be tuned according to need. Factors which affected each part of the system are described.
