Linux Docker: Enterprise Geodatabase in Oracle
_________________________________________________________________
Running a Linux Docker container having an Enterprise Geodatabase in Oracle, while utilizing the ESRI ST_Geometry spatial data type library alongside Oracle SDO spatial data type, is an effective way to manage spatial data environments. This setup allows for enhanced functionality and optimized performance in geographic information systems (GIS) applications.

--7. Manage CPU and memory limits for docker containers.
--7.1. Setting CPU and Memory Limits When Starting a Container
Use the docker run command with the following flags:
docker run -d \
--name my_container \
--memory="512m" \ # Limit memory to 512 MB
--cpus="1.5" \ # Limit to 1.5 CPU cores
my_image
--memory: Sets the maximum amount of memory the container can use.
--cpus: Limits the number of CPU cores the container can use.
--7.2. Changing CPU and Memory Limits Later
You cannot change resource limits on a running container directly.
Stop and Update the Container
a. Stop the container:
docker stop my_container
b. Remove the old container:
docker rm my_container
c. Start a new container with updated limits:
docker run -d \
--name my_container \
--memory="1g" \
--cpus="2.0" \
my_image_updated

--14. Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Express
Oracle Database inside the container also has Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Express (EM Express) configured.
To access EM Express, start your browser using the following URL:
https://localhost:5500/em/
docker ps -a
docker port ora-db-19
/*
1521/tcp -> 0.0.0.0:1527

https://ps026300:5527/em/
_________________________________________________________________
--15. Performing operations that require Database Shutdown/Startup
To perform operations on the database that require the restart of the database,
use the maintenance shutdown/startup scripts, /home/oracle/shutDown.sh and /home/oracle/startUp.sh
instead of issuing shutdown immediate and startup commands respectively as the latter would lead to exiting of the container.
$ docker exec -it -u oracle ora-db-19 bash
/home/oracle/startUp.sh
/home/oracle/shutDown.sh immediate
_________________________________________________________________
--16. Resource Requirements
The minimum requirements for the container is 25 GB of disk space and 4 GB of memory.
_________________________________________________________________
--17. Running Scripts After Setup and on Startup
The following example mounts the local directory myScripts to /opt/oracle/scripts/startup which is then searched for custom startup scripts:
$ docker run -d --name <oracle-db> -v
/home/oracle/myScripts:/opt/oracle/scripts/startup
container-registry.oracle.com/database/enterprise:21.3.0.0
