Both on-premise and OMC are scalable vertically and horizontally; you would just include the licensing costs of high-availability for both the middle-tier and database layers (or number oF VMs for clustering) and the added storage or incremental costs to include additional targets or resiliency.

Scot-Conrad

Principal Oracle Applications DVA at a tech services company with 501-1,000 employees

It's very scalable. You can expand it to cover everything you need in that environment.

It could range between 10 and 20, depending on the size of the customer and the number of DBAs they have. However, DBAs and system administrators will use it in some cases. I have one customer where there are some power users who can look at things. Then we try to get the developers to use it as well, so they can look at their SQL to tune it. In my area, it's usually 10 to 20, but once you open it up to developers, it could be another 50 to a hundred. It all depends on the company, its size, and how it is used.

A good percentage of Oracle clients use this solution, but I don't have any personal plans to use it more or to use it less. We use it when it's available.

Though Oracle Enterprise Manager is a scalable product, it may not be as scalable as Oracle Big Data. You can scale up Oracle Big Data to any number, but it may be difficult to do so when it comes to Oracle Enterprise Manager.

Around 10 to 50 people in my company use Oracle Enterprise Manager.

There are times when you have to troubleshoot during the height of a crisis, when the box is already busy, and the chances are you are inflicting more pain. Nonetheless, this product still works very well, despite how busy the box is, because of the small footprint. Meaning, it doesn't take up a lot of resources. With fewer resources, it strives to get the job done.

it_user522195

Senior Oracle DBA at a retailer with 10,001+ employees

It's scalable depending on the way you build it. From the base configuration itself the server capacity and the installation, you have a number of targets, say 0-10, 10-250, 250-1000. Based on your company's requirement you have to install and configure those so that it will be scalable throughout that time period. You will also require enough memory, CPU cards for supporting those targets.

I would rate the level of this product’s scalability at a 8/10.

It basically avails of a wide range of data, which it can pull together in one dashboard and present this data to the management in a quicker manner. This is the only scalable aspect in the product.

The product is scalable in terms of how much better business you can monitor. You can really just keep adding them.

I know of six users of the solution in our organization. That said, I am sure we can add more if we need others. If we add new employees, we will increase usage.

Engineer at a tech services company with 51-200 employees

The only issue I can see with scalability is not being able to multi-master the repository. The repository requires a single Oracle database. The database can use HA features like Oracle RAC or DR features like Oracle Data Guard, but there can only be one active database at a time. The middleware is Oracle Weblogic which also has robust clustering and load balancing capabilities.

It's scaled pretty well for our needs, so far. We're planning on moving over to a server that has more resources available because we are getting to a point where, with some of the features that are available – such as dealing with monitoring compliances, security compliances – it's starting to take up more resources than what we have on that server along with these targets. We're having to move off of this server to have some more resources.
