Overview:

Availability is a growing concern for all customers. Information, and the databases underlying that information, has become more and more integral to business processes and products. Simply put, windows of downtime for planned maintenance no longer exist. This informative white paper explains how the new Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) One Node offers enhanced high availability for single-instance databases, protecting from both planned and unplanned downtime. Read ahead to see how Oracle RAC One Node provides:

• Always on single-instance database services


• Better consolidation for database servers


• Enhanced server virtualization


• Lower cost development and test platform for full RAC

In addition, you'll learn how it allows customers to consolidate database storage, standardize their database environment, and, should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database without downtime or disruption.
