That's a valid question.
We are consolidating about 60 databases, running on various machines to 4
databases on Half rack of Exadata. All CPUs are not consumed by a single SQL,
but as we are adding more databases on Exadata, it is going up. Hence CPU Usage
over time is expected behavior.
We could find more on our options from our sales rep. I just wanted to do my
homework before asking Oracle sales, as they would most probably try to sell
next Exadata rack to us.
Thanks,
