WORKLOAD DESCRIPTION

The Oracle Applications Standard Benchmark is focused on ERP applications and represents a mixed workload intended to model the most common transactions operating on the most widely used enterprise application modules. Definitions of transactions that compose the benchmark load were obtained through collaboration with functional consultants and are representative of typical customer workloads, with batch transactions representing 25% of the total workload.

To ensure that the benchmarks workload characteristics remain constant across a variety of user counts the concept of atomic user group has been defined. The atomic user group is the smallest number of users that can be added at any given time while still ensuring that the workload remains unchanged, specifically in terms of the percentages of each type of user in the mix. The atomic user group consists of the sum of all the base user counts specified in the table. To run more users you simply add an integer number of atomic groups, and thereby the characteristics of the workload remain constant.

For the eBS 11.5.10 benchmark, performance comparison(s) between benchmark kits of different sizes such as small, medium and large is not encouraged. By the same token, for benchmark kit of the same size, results comparison(s) between Single Instance versus RAC is also discouraged.

11.5.10 eBS Kit Workload

The EBS 11.5.10 Standard Benchmark supports three types of configurations : Small, Medium and Large. The volume of data loaded into Oracle Applications schema and the max number of users allowed for benchmark run depend upon the type of configuration selected.

  Req. Throughput Req. Throughput  
Category Order to Cash Payroll Number of Users Maximum Number for Workers for each batch program
Small 10,000 lines/Hr 5,000 Employees/Hr 1 – 1000 4
Medium 50,000 lines/Hr 10,000 Employees/Hr 1001 – 30008
Large 100,000 lines/Hr 100,000 lines/Hr > 300024

Batch Benchmark

The batch component of the Oracle Applications Standard Benchmark focuses on executing the core concurrent programs in the eBusiness Suite such as the High Volume Order Import program, which is part of the order to cash business flow. The batch benchmark is extremely useful in providing sizing and capacity planning information for the core Oracle Applications batch flows and concurrent programs.

High Volume Order Processing (HVOP)

The Release 11i Order Management HVOP benchmark focuses exclusively on meeting the high order volumes originating from the new electronic channels, such as consumer and business web sites, B2B exchanges, and EDI. The benchmark is designed to represent a core component of the order to cash business flow demonstrating the overall order processing throughput. Oracle Workflow, a high performance process control engine that guides sales order headers and lines through a series of consecutive steps from order creation through Shipping, controls order processing. The HVOP program processes orders by reading the rows from the Order Management Interface tables and converting the interface records into permanent Oracle Applications? order headers and their respective order lines. The orders are then booked and advanced to the shipping state
