Introduction!

Databases in excess of 10Gb, normally 50Gb+ OLTP with 7 by 24 hour requirement 1000’s of enrolled users 100’s of concurrent users

Requirements!

Architecture Led Design Modular Resilient Scaleable

The Large Scaleable Server! Database Server (multi node cluster) Batch/Print Server (two node cluster) Server Network (FDDI)

Application Server (free standing)

Client Networks Building Large Scaleable Client/Server Solutions - David M. Walker

The Database Server! Traditional ‘Server’ Only Oracle RDBMS running SQL * Net connections over FDDI Resilience !! Use OPS for fail over

!! Use disk mirroring Scaleability

!! Use OPS for ‘out of box’ growth –! Modular Application Design Useful

!! Use disk striping Building Large Scaleable Client/Server Solutions - David M. Walker

Application Server!

Two Type

!! ‘Host’ Based !! ‘Client’ Based Clone machines provide resilience and scaleability

Host Based Application Server!

User logs onto server via telnet User interface run on Application Server ‘Thin’ Clients

Building Large Scaleable Client/Server Solutions - David M. Walker

13:45

Client Based Application Server!

Server acts only as file server User Interface run on Local PC ‘Thick’ Clients

13:45

Batch Server! Manages batch queues May run batch jobs on Application Server or locally Standardize interface so all products can use it Resilience options !! Use database to hold queue

!! Cluster aware batch manager !! Use fail over file systems to move queue Scaleability

!! Design manager to run programs where resource is available (e.g. Application or Batch Server)

Print Server!

Manages system output Resilience options !! Use database to hold queue

!! Cluster aware print manager !! Use fail over file systems to move queues

Building Large Scaleable Client/Server Solutions - David M. Walker

Print Server (continued)!

Options

!! Distributed across application servers –! Large number of complex queues to manage –! Needs intelligent printers –! Interferes with application server work –! Not very scaleable or resilient

!! Centralized printer server –! Single point queue management –! Output must be sent to server for queuing which increases network traffic

Print Server (continued)!

Options (continued)

!! Hybrid print servers –! Central Queue Manager (CQM) –! Local queues on Application Servers address by CQM only –! Large number of simple queues to manage –! No large network file transfers

Networks! Server Network (FDDI)

!! SQL * Net Traffic between Application Server and Database Server

!! Batch and print requests Client Networks

!! Users connections to Application Servers System Administration Network !! System Administrators

!! Database Administrators !! SNMP MIBs for monitoring Clusters Networks !! Low Latency Interconnects for Lock Traffic Building Large Scaleable Client/Server Solutions - David M. Walker

Backup and Recovery!

PLAN & TEST FOR RECOVERY ! Database Server !! Use ‘Hot’ & ‘Cold’ backups !! Use OPBRU where available

!! Use resilient media (3480 or 3490) !! Use low capacity media with tape managers Application, Batch and Print Servers !! Use standard Configurations

!! Keep transient files of separate file systems from static code

Conclusion!

Large Client/Solutions are possible but not easy Have an architecture and build in a modular fashion Look for weaknesses in resilience and scaleability Partner with your vendors - you will need their help
