Re: Advantage of ThirdParty Cluster over Oracle Supplied Free one

You could reverse them if you want. I have this cluster solution that

Is new.
Only helps one of our key technologies.
Can be slower than existing cluster solutions.
Is unknown to the people that adminster it.

Presumably that might fly better?

General applicability, ease of adoption and performance tend to be quite
good arguments. Admittedly I only work for a billion pound turnover
organisation, and it doesn't do cutting edge, but they are certainly things
we'd consider. I know of people who, quite reasonably regard VMS as an
objectively superior OS to Windows, curiously VMS doesn't outsell Windows
anywhere much - even in the data centres of multi-million dollar
corporates.

In general I guess I'm saying that the technical best solution - and I'm not
convinced v2 of a cluster solution is it - isn't the most appropriate
for business needs, and which technology is chosen is in the end a business
choice.
