Hi Monks,

I am looking for Perl solutions where I need to read JSON configuration file containing linux server details and connected oracle DB information,
read this and run several Alert scripts on these DB's...say 100 Linux servers each hosting 4 oracle DB...The process is currently working in a serial manner.

i.e. reads the json file for {1st Linux server->1st DB-> Run Alert scripts.}
1st Linux server->2nd DB-> Run Alert scripts.
...3rd DB
...4th DB

Then reads the json file for {2nd Linux server ->1st DB-> Run Alert scripts}
2nd Linux server->2nd DB-> Run Alert scripts.
...3rd DB
...4th DB

and so on for next 100 (linux servers) * 4 (DBS) = 400 (hosts to monitor.)

This is again connected to a scheduling tool crontab for every 60 mins... but since its running serially for all 100 servers its taking nearly 90 mins ....and hence the second run overlapping the first run. Looking for robust parallel solutions!!!!
