RE: 9i RAC's

Early publicity for RACs specifically said that it was an OPS upgrade and made great play of cache fusion which was already available in 8.1.7. I agree with the previous point that OPS was often thrown at applications that were badly suited and so customers perceived it as a poor technology. RAC seeks to improve over OPS by giving it the capability to scale any application, whether or not it's specifically designed to run in a parallel environment. Whether they've succeeded yet is still to be discovered.

Mike Hately
