 I'm not sure what you're referring to by "oracle clustering". Is this a product you've heard of? I'm not familiar with it. Inside the database, clustering is the term for nesting multiple tables within the same segment for faster joins. Could that be what you're thinking about? Outside the database, clustering is a means of attaining high availability and is required for OPS. Single instance Oracle can also run on a cluster apart from OPS but is not quite as highly available.
