It depends on HA for what.
For Database, then you have DataGuard which in my experience covers most HA
needs. You do have RAC, but RAC introduces a whole new level of complexity
and therefore a new potential point of failure. As Niall mentioned you have
various replication methods as well.
I guess the real question is what is the business need (the REAL business
need) and then we can tell you what kind of HA/replication we use.
