Establishing some standard approaches at this stage can make the technical aspects of the project run smoothly later on. We have a set of standard approaches to the following areas which will make the delivery of your Oracle project a reliable and predictable exercise.
Environment Planning. How many Oracle environments are needed to support the project? By planning environment build, refresh and usage the hardware and administration overhead of development and test environments can be managed and kept to the minimum necessary.
Multiple Test Installations on shared machines: Filesystem Structure and Port Allocation. The practical application of software should be governed by some simple rules. Establishing these means that software is easier to manage and conflicts between groups or users are less likely.
Change and Release Management. Projects create change, how this is managed through multiple software installations can have a drastic effect on the reliability of the resulting system. Introducing simple change and release management processes adds transparency and confidence to your system development lifecycle.
