Configuring Parallel Concurrent Processing

Parallel Concurrent Processing (PCP) is an extension of the Concurrent Processing architecture. PCP allows concurrent processing activities to be distributed across multiple nodes in an Oracle RAC environment, maximizing throughput, and providing resilience and high availability user interactions. With EBS, data can be conducted through HTML-based applications or the more traditional forms-based applications. However, there are also reporting programs and data update programs that need to run either periodically or on an ad hoc basis. These programs, which are running in the background while users continue to work on other tasks, may require a large number of data-intensive computations and can utilize the Concurrent Processing architecture.

Concurrent Processing is an Oracle EBS feature that allows these non-interactive and potentially long-running functions to be executed efficiently alongside interactive operations. It uses the operating system...
