• Oracle/PeopleSoft Installation
– Follow the same process to building PeopleSoft in the
Cloud as you would normally do. Perform due-diligence
and testing to ensure software compatibility.
– Validate all software licenses. Leverage other software or
network subscriptions the company uses.
– Consult with architects and engineers to validate that
standards are being followed. The default installation
doesn’t conform.

DNS, LDAP/Active Directory, Terminal Server license
servers.

32. Key Takeaways
• Systems/Storage Performance
– Linux and Windows systems performed as expected.
Dual CPU systems with a lot of memory are quite fast!
– Storage performance differs by Amazon’s hosting regions
and availability zones.
• Small WRITE operations and general READ
operations appeared normal.
• Disk performance was slower for large WRITE
operations in VPC US East region as compared to
EC2 US West.
– Example: PeopleSoft database installation script
– 8-10 hrs in EC2 compared to 18-20 hrs in VPC.
– Example: 30GB database backup to disk – 30
min in EC2 compared to 1.5 hrs in VPC.

33. Key Takeaways
• Virtual Private Cloud
– The VPC is secured with firewalls. Access through the
firewall is provisioned on an as-needed basis by server and
ports, depending on the application/service requirements.
– VPC uses same internet connection that the rest of the
company uses. Consideration for performance regarding
VPC and company internet access, and vice versa.
– Large file transfers can take a long time
• 1 GB file transfer between oracle.com and VPC: 5 hours
• 30 GB database between US West US East: 4 days
• Creative workaround: Provision instance in same region
as VPC, load files/software to Amazon Elastic Block
Storage, and share/mount storage to VPC servers.
