Yes, you are correct:

      7.2.1 Using Real-Time Apply to Apply Redo Data Immediately

If the real-time apply feature is enabled, apply services can apply redo data as it is received, without waiting for the current standby redo log file to be archived. This results in faster switchover and failover times because the standby redo log files have been applied already to the standby database by the time the failover or switchover begins.

Use the |ALTER DATABASE| statement to enable the real-time apply feature, as follows:

  *

    For physical standby databases, issue the |ALTER DATABASE RECOVER     MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE| statement.

  *

    For logical standby databases, issue the |ALTER DATABASE START     LOGICAL STANDBY APPLY IMMEDIATE| statement.
