IBM AIX w/HACMP. If you factor in the service plan costs on all other boxes vs. IBMs 1-3 year we cover everything and after that service is less expensive than any one else's, you'll find the TCO for these units is anywhere from marginally less to way less than any alternative I've found. Haven't run Linux for a high-availability situation, if possible, could be the clear winner. Wintel has a place in the enterprise, but if you're going HA, be prepared to shell out the big bucks.

Not a flack - just a satisfied user w/Sun, NT (W2K), and HP_UX experience.

Shopping for workgroup servers, the sun rep is pushing a V880s with Sun Cluster 3 and OPS. OPS seems like yesterdays news. I was told that Ellison said at openworld that OPS is a signal failure.

Anybody gone to intel/9i/RAC or is this stuff not really ready?

If you were buying today for the next couple of years and need high availability, what would you go with?
