Installation Overview

This chapter briefly introduces Tibero and describes the system requirements for installation.

Overview

The current enterprise business rapidly expands with the explosive increase of data and the advent of a variety of new environments and platforms. This new business environment requires more flexible and efficient data services, information handling, and data management functions.

Tibero is an enterprise database management system that supports building a database infrastructure on which enterprise business is implemented and provides high performance, high availability, and scalability.

To address limitations of existing databases, Tibero implemented its proprietary Tibero thread architecture. It also uses limited system resources such as CPU and memory efficiently, guarantees high performance and reliability, and provides a convenient development environment and management features.

Tibero, from its very earliest version, has been developed to handle a large number of users and large amounts of data while ensuring reliability and compatibility.

Tibero is a data management solution that manages large amounts of data and guarantees reliable business continuity. It has all of the features needed for an RDBMS environment such as distributed database links, data replication, data clustering, and parallel query processing. Tibero provides thereby an optimal database environment that perfectly meets enterprise needs.

Hardware

Hardware requirements for installing Tibero are as follows:

Note

The following requirements are based on default parameters. Even if these requirements are met, installation may still fail depending on the database parameter settings.

Platform	RAM	Swap Space	/tmp Directory Space	HDD Space (Full / Client Only)
LINUX/x86	1 GB	2 GB	500 MB	2.5 GB / 400 MB
Solaris	1 GB	2 GB	500 MB	2.5 GB / 400 MB
AIX	1 GB	2 GB	500 MB	2.5 GB / 400 MB

For Solaris platforms, refer to the following when setting swap space.

• Recommended setting: twice the physical memory

• User setting: (Background process count + Worker process count) * Swap usage per process(300 MB)

Software

Software requirements for installing Tibero are as follows:

Platform	OS	Compiler	JDK Version
LINUX/x86	Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 kernel 3.10.0 or later	C99 compatible compiler, gcc version 4.8.5 or later	JDK 1.5.17 or later
Solaris	Solaris 11 64-bit kernel	C99 compatible compiler, Sun C 5.8 2005/10/13	JDK 1.5.17 or later
AIX	AIX 7.1 64-bit kernel AIX 7.2 64-bit kernel AIX 7.3 64-bit kernel	C99 compatible compiler	JDK 1.5.17 or later

For a binary compiled in AIX 7.1, AIX 7.1 Technology Level 4 or higher version is required for proper operation.
