I have a 4 Core 12GB RAM dedicated windows machine.I have Oracle 11g installed on it.
Could any body please help on the DB server parameters that can be tuned from a performance perspective.
Any reference to a credible url also is fine & will be of great help. Thanks..
Oracle provides a lot of online documentation including a lot of guides. The 2 Day DBA Guide for 11.2 has a section on Monitoring and Tuning the Database that can get you started. Other sections in the guide can be helpful as well.

I am looking to automate my appplication installation on standalone machines, so wondering if I can automate the oracle 11g setup as well? Is there a way to do this?
Maybe instead of installing Oracle on Windows use VM with pre installed software. Here you have some instructions how to use it.
Generally I don't think automated instalation for database make sense. You can configure database somwhere in the net and your application can use remote databse (just create a schema for each user). Also database server has usually different requirements so it is not popular to install DB at same machine as application.

I am trying to learn Oracle SQL with the help of the book 'Oracle SQL by Example' and it recommends that I download Oracle 11g to be able to take full advantage of what the book has on offer when it comes to practising the skills I learn.
However, Oracle's website seems not to offer 11g for Mac and I cannot find a link to 10g that is still valid (or, indeed, that doesn't dead end at the Oracle website). Does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks.
The simplest route might be to install VirtualBox and one of the pre-built VM images Oracle provides. It's simpler to get started than having to navigate the database software installation and DB creation, if you aren't interested in those aspects at the moment.
The Database App Development VM gives you a pre-installed database, plus SQL*Plus and SQL Developer to run examples and your own code as you learn.

I'm using mysql as xampp(linux) component for my development works for a long time. But I wonder if I can use Oracle as my database. If I can which version should I choose that will fulfill my needs of production level development.
Also I've heard Oracle EE requires money for licensing. What facility they provide by licensing Oracle DB? Can it be used for development?(I'm just curious)
Oracle provides Oracle XE (Express edition) free for developer use which allows you to create and use databases of up to 4GB, use up to 1GB of RAM and use only one CPU. Anything more you gotta pay for it

We currently have an application written in Oracle. Most of our customers wish to run on VMWare internally or via third party.
My understanding of Oracle licensing is that you must licence against all the underlying hardware unless you use Oracle's own virtualisation software. However, most hosting organisations use VMWare and any internal hosting will also use VMWare.
How can we licence Oracle products without them looking uncompetitive to competing SQL Server products when the VMWare licensing causes problems?
Thanks.
It's all in the architecture of you VMWARE solution. From a performance and scaleabilty point of view Oracle will probbably beat MSSQL in several areas, security etc. MSSQl also has specific challenges in VMware licensing that you should research.

A have some step by step description where downloading of OracleXEUniv.exe is one step.
But I cannot find what is it for? What is functionality of this file?
Than you.
OracleXE is the free version of Oracle's main database product. The "Universal" simply means it will install using the Universal character set instead of the Western European character set.
Oracle Database Express Edition (Oracle Database XE) is an
entry-level, small-footprint database based on the Oracle Database.
It's free to develop, deploy, and distribute; fast to download; and
simple to administer.
