The OFA (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals) naming standards are guidelines that suggest the use of specific criteria when naming dogs for purposes of orthopedic evaluations. However, while it is recommended to follow these standards, they are not required by law or regulation.

Question 20

____ is the typical configuration for an Oracle10g database.
A) Single-instance server
B) Multiple-instance server
C) Clustered servers
D) Application server

Accepted Answer

The typical configuration for an Oracle10g database is a single-instance server. This means that there is only one database running on one server, which is the most common setup for smaller databases with a moderate amount of users. Multiple-instance and clustered server configurations are typically used for larger databases with a higher amount of users and increased demand for scalability and high availability. An application server is not a configuration for an Oracle10g database, but rather a separate component used for running applications.
