Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: SharePlex
We are not running 9i but 8.1.7.4, sorry for not including that
earlier. We are rolling out to our international offices and we
basically have offices in every time zone. I'm looking at SharePlex for
HA, reporting use, and potentially migrating from HP to Linux. They
will be on Linux next month.

I don't believe there is any additional cost to using logical standby over the second server license that your going to have to pay anyway.

We are a mid sized company, about 2.2 billion per year, running Financials 11.5.7. We are interested in this for HA and for reporting instance use.

We use Cognos as our query tool and the owners of this
product tells me that we can't tune the SQL it emits. It makes pretty
poor choices, which is not surprising for a gooey, sticky tool designed
for end users. It is sort of pretty and if you can drool you too can
generate cross products. Anyway , I'd like to get them off the
production box.

Does SharePlex allow you to stay close to the production instance in time? Does the store and forward work well? Do you love it? Hate it? Anything you'd like to say about this product I'd like to hear
Thanks in advance
