Something I should have made clear (and thanks to Chris Taylor and Chris Ruel):
Funds are available to either grow the existing environment, or acquire the
resources needed to build a new one.
So my question is more of a "best practices" idea.
Thanks again to all.

Subject: Use the existing RAC. . . or build another one?
We have to decide if we are going to put a new database instance in our
existing 2-node RAC,
or build a second cluster for the new database.
We are talking 2 separate off-the-shelf products from a single vendor; the
vendor will not support putting the 2 schemas into a single database.
The 2 products are tied very closely together; but do operate independently
when/if necessary.
We are debating amongst ourselves the pros/cons of each strategy.
Any comments/suggestions/war-stories would be appreciated.
Thanks.
