Vikas,

I just implemented Oracle Names (8.1.6) for Verizon Wireless...corporate-wide. I've setup three ONAMES servers:

1. At Corporate Headquarters in NJ. This server contains the region database for ONAMES. It also serves as the "Secondary" ONAMES server corporate-wide.
2. In data center in NY. This server provides "Primary" ONAMES services to the corporate regions in both the North East and South areas.
3. In data center in CA. This server provides "Primary" ONAMES services to the corporate regions in both the West and Midwest areas.

This infrastructure supports 26,000 users accessing 250+ databases corporate-wide.

Oracle Names is making its' terminal release in 9i. Oracle is recommending that companies migrate to their LDAP (Oracle Internet Directory) solution. This solution is not cheap...so we have decided to wait probably another year or so before going this route. OiD is also a bit more complicated to setup and administer.
