Re: Application migration from non RAC databases to RAC databases

Vin,

The answer is as simple as this..If your application scales linearly on an SMP machine then it will certainly scale on RAC. If your application does not scale on a single instance, it will certainly not scale in RAC. As noted in my book, RAC can be compared to a stereo amplifier. If the original music is good, you will hear a good music with RAC. If the original music has a lot of noise, RAC will amplify that noise and the outcome is generally horrible. A well performing application in a single instance will perform equally well or outperform when implemented on RAC
