investigate a new oracle feature called "stand-by" database. it is a duplicate database which is permanently in recovery mode, and which is kept up-to-date by reading the logs produced by its sister database while in archivelog mode. the delivery of logs into the stand-by is not automatic, but you could devise a pipe of some kind to advance the state of the art.
