Hello All

our organization almost made a decision to move to OBIEE, i am doing the groundwork, server memory and space requirements, fussion middleware network requirements and so on... my question for you all,  What are memory and disc space requirements for OBIEE server, we are planning to use OBIEE and BI Publisher to full extent,  i went trough oracle documents but they mentioned bare minimum requirements, i cant order a server with those minimum requirements. since most of you are working real time with OBIEE and might have configured and installed OBIEE,  can you guide me how to calculate Production server memory and disc space or can you provide me a a good server spec(i know it depends on many factors but recommon the best)

    Actually any answer between 8Gb and 2Tb of RAM is right ...

    You must know what kind of usage you want to do (seems to be everything based on what you said), but how many users? Total and concurrent?

    Of course if you can get an Exalytics box with 2Tb of RAM go for it ! You will always find something to do with it ...

    For the disk it's already different, not a lot as OBIEE is not going to store data (other than temp files etc.), so what you found in the doc must be quite right.

    In Our case a total of 1000 users and less than 300 concurrent user may be.

    ya OBIEE doesn't store whole lot of data but user might run/schedule lot of customer facing documents from BI Publisher and tool will save lot of report job outputs, wouldn't this consume lot of space overtime?(we will delete and purge at one point but we have to consider all these while ordering server rite...)

    It might but it all depends on the amount of data retrieved, the number of times it gets retrieved, whether you use caching or not and about 5000 other parameter.
