If it works as well as the promised rolling RAC patches in 10g...

But seriously... It's not something I get that excited about.

Of course, everyone can point to something and say, 'What about...?' But it's the show-stopping 'oooh!' features I'm talking about. Being able to upgrade your Oracle installation on-the-fly might be a convenience and might even be a big convenience. But an 'oh my God, how did we ever manage without that' it most definitely aint, I'd say!

Feel free to swoon, however. Received on Fri Aug 10 2007 - 07:30:47 CDT
