I am looking into ways to make a Standard Edition 10gR2 database (Windows
2003) more bullet-proof. After running a test 2-node SE RAC for a while and
reading the recent extensive discussion on SE RAC, it seems that the
complexity and diminished stability nearly negates the redundancy of the
second node. A standby database, on the other hand, would result in
downtime before someone could switch over to the standby.
Since this database is on Windows, it looks like Fail Safe would make a good
compromise between the previous two options. Plus, I wouldn't be forced to
store my data in ASM, like SE RAC. I would be grateful to hear other
people's opinions and advice about Fail Safe in particular, and other HA
options of SE.
