Database considerations
Overview
A simple dev environment can rely on the out-of-box database configuration using Apache Derby, a built-in Java database that works in a non-clustered environment with a small number of users.The performance of Derby with WCM is poor, including transaction timeouts. Any WCM deployment requires using one of the other supported database management systems.
Perform database transfers before using the portal extensively. Large amounts of data in the databases can cause the database transfer to fail if the Java heap size is not large enough.
Data can be transferred from a Derby database, but cannot be transferred to a Derby database.
DB planning steps

- Plan for IBM DB2 for i
- Plan for DB2 for z/OS
- Plan for Oracle
- Plan for Oracle RAC
