Has anyone done standby database or replication from OPS?

I have a large (80-90 GB) OLTP OPS database that needs to be replicated to another Oracle database. Does anyone out there have any experience with either:

Replication from OPS (2 node Sun PDB) to exclusive Oracle (Sun ES5000)?
Standby database - from OPS to exclusive Oracle?

Everything I've heard leads me to think that (1) leads to horrible performance. Choice (2) is not supported, but two rather knowledgable DBAs have said it could probably be done by creating two threads in the single instance database - to "fake it out". Oracle and most DBAs I've talked to simply say that you can't do a standby database from OPS.
