I had monthly Oracle Apps clones that were done on 3 environments at my last
job. As long as you have a good plan for a clone, then you should be fine.

Consider the environment. Please don't print this e-mail unless you really
need to.

At a prior employer I did daily exports of the metadata of all
Peoplesoft databases ( Financials, HR, Student Admin ) which I could
use to create a database without transaction data. Modeled after the
old AUD databases. A few times that came in handy to recover code the
developer failed to save to file-based projects when a development
database was refreshed. No need to have a full clone for just the metadata.
