And very other there is different instance for very good reason. Management is also simple/better when having control for one business-system per instance.
N:B. now talkin about non-RAC

With different instance you can better agree service time (shutdown) when only one plant/division/department to deal with, not the damn corporation.

And what you save with single instance, some bits. As clever saving as putting year into two digit, and get 2000-issues :) If separetes instances you can be sure no interfare with each system. Do security nor data involvent.

And no extra work to fit sepate systems into one instance, that saves money. And the last but not least, you have better control into separeted systems. Received on Wed Sep 05 2012 - 03:00:53 CDT
