Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: I/O contention with external process reading the oracle logs (online redo logs)
Hello Tim and Rachel
There is band width problem. The line is 256K (we are checking upgrade to
512k).
The database, during peek time produce 10MB of logs every 2-3 minutes.
On this line it will take 7-8 minutes to pass 10MB if the line was dedicate
and it is not dedicated.
Upgrading the line to more then 512K need E1 at least and it is expansive.
Since replication will need less band width we are checking it.
To return to my original question:
Quest Shareplex -
Any success stories?
Why use this and not replication?
Ant performance tests between Shareplex and Oracle replication?
