Hi,
I just wanted to get people's opinions on the cost justification for
RAC.
The following are list prices.
$40K per processor for Oracle EE license + $20K per processor for RAC.
If I want to have a total capacity of 8 CPUs that's $160K of RAC
licenses. How are people justifying RAC in such a scenario -- is it less
expensive to buy 2 4 way SMP boxes rather than 1 8 way SMP box? Anyone
have rough price figures they can share for Unix boxes (just for
comparison)?=20
Thanks.
