Hi Abhishek,

I need to get a sever/ workstation to get the Oracle SOA 11.1.1.5 & Oracle AIA up.

I have tried on local system with 2.33Ghz, 2.99GB RAM on windows XP 32 Bit. The system freezes if I start the SOA server and JDeveloper together. Plz suggest the model no for Dell/IBM with configuration which will suite the requirement. This has to be developer system.

The fusion requirement guide is not very helpful.

http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/E18558_01/fusion_requirements.htm

I have shortlisted a Dell Server with the following configuration:-
E2 1220 - 4C/4T, 8MB Cache, 8GB RAM(4*2). Will this be good enough. I am planning to install RHEL 5. Please suggest.

Regards,
Raj Deepu
