Dataguard is available beginning in v9 at no additional cost if you're =
on Enterprise Edition, I haven't heard that it costs extra in 10g.  =
Dataguard just automates your 8i standby, much easier IMHO, also you can =
now add a logical standby for reporting, developers, whatever.  I'd =
stick with a physical standby for availability, though.  Haven't seen an =
advantage for us in going RAC, will consider it when they get online =
upgrades/patching working, though.

Is anyone using Dataguard?  Is it worth the extra $$.  We are still =
firmly
on the fence as to whether we are going 10G Rac or just 10G.  We are not =
a
true 24/7 shop and our applications are not
ready for Rac or Standby (i.e. they would have to be restarted) so I am
wondering if I should bother with dataguard or not.  We have standby for =
8i
now and just wondering if dataguard is worth it.

I plan to test drive 10G dataguard, I was just wondering what others
thought.

Oh, and we decided to keep the binaries local for the oracle home =
instead of
on the San.  We couldn't find a compelling reason either way for us.  We
would not have plenty of room on the SAN so we would not have had to buy
more storage (yet any way).  The internal / san time was the same.  We
really didn't have that much hitting the binaries. =20
