   Tune OS and I/O subsystem to the needs of Oracle database.   
      
   Separate application tier from database tier.  (Many vendors default to   
   having the app's 'middle tier' on the database server, results in  tuning   
   compromise).   
      
   Merge databases by using schemas effectively.
