2 valid concerns from the developers.

 

I suppose the standard questions would be

 

Oracle version

Data volumes

Full schema/database or just a couple of tables

Latency allowed

 

I suspect the answer from Oracle would be DG but bandwidth would/might
be problem

 

Streams is probably the way to go but it does seem a (perhaps
unnecessarily) complicated beast

Have a good question from a friend of mine who's not on the list -
wondering if anyone else would have input.  Reply-all so that Steve can
see the replies too - anyone have additional thoughts about this?

Between two geo-separated RAC databases, say one on west coast, the
other on east coast.

 

What is the recommended method for keeping both up to date, but not
necessarily immediately up to date.

 

There's concern from developers that:

 

1. Oracle replication between sites would be too slow because it's
trigger based and would seriously impact performance, especially during
heavy traffic time.

 

2. Oracle replication is end-of-life for Oracle Streams.   We're
concerned about streams in that it's quite complex.

        Replication is probably the best Oracle-centric option.  It
depends a lot on the volume of updates and the data types you're using.
There are also some third-party solutions available.  This would be a
great question to post on the oracle-l list too if you wanted some good
feedback.  Mind if I forward it over there?
