8. Large Oracle databases benefit greatly from large SGA sizes. Large customers should deploy on Azure M-series with 4 TB or more RAM size.

- Set the Oracle parameter USE_LARGE_PAGES = ONLY - The value ONLY is preferred over the value TRUE as this will deliver more consistent and predictable performance. The value TRUE may allocate both large 2MB and standard 4K pages. The value ONLY will always force large 2MB pages. If the number of available huge pages is not sufficient or not correctly configured, the database instance will fail to start with error code: ora-27102 : out of memory Linux_x86_64 Error 12 : cannot allocate memory. If there is insufficient contiguous memory Oracle the Operating System may need to be restarted and/or the Operating System Huge Page parameters reconfigured

10. The size of the boot disk for large high performance Oracle database servers is important. As a minimum a P10 disk should be used for M-series or E-series. Don't use small disks such as P4 or P6. A small disk can cause performance issues.
