Subject: Dataguard Exadata -> Database Appliance
I was just asked by management whether it would be possible to run Dataguard
from Exadata (Primary) to a Database Appliance (Standby). I can’t think of a
reason why that wouldn’t be possible.
I’m not sure that’s the question they are actually asking though which is:
Would it be justifiable for us to save some money and run our standby on
cheaper hardware (and consequently software licensing)?
I don’t think processing power differences will be a problem for quite some
time. The biggest drawback I can think of is that all of a sudden you have to
keep OS/GI (running RAC)/RDBMS versions and patching at the same level.
What else am I not thinking of? …how bad of an idea is it?
I would have even really considered it as a possibility but then I don’t pay
the bills or have to justify them either.
Thanks for any help with this.
Chris
