Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Splitting a database: pro and cons
Hi list,
I have two applications running against one database (in fact I have a few but for the sake of this question two are enough). The two apps have different upgrade patterns and I would like to split them in two databases that will be on the same unix server. There are some views that are used extensively that join data from both apps/schemas, and after the split those should be made using db links. I did some tests and comparisons of queries going through links versus running them directly on the database, and did not see a lot of difference.
Does anybody see or know of any downside in splitting the database in two :-(. And any advantage :-). What is the general strategy when installing different apps (from different vendors) - put them on separate databases or combining them.
Thanks.
Djordje
