The preceding set of steps are used to provide a working example of how to
partition the Oracle SOA Suite

tables. It is recommended to capture basic
metrics before and after you partition the tables to observe the performance
impact and involve an Oracle DBA to fine tune the tablespace characteristics
as needed. Though database partitioning of the Oracle SOA Suite

and may be appropriate for your particular installations.
Reducing audit levels
Another way to maintain database growth is to reduce the audit level for com-

be ideal. Configuration and management of audit levels is covered in detail in
