The "Cage" solution is not uncommon from what I've seen. I've also seen situations where you could go in but you were always escorted. In a couple of cases, I've seen that a limited number of employees (say 2-5) were allowed but they had to go through background checks. DIck is right though, security is paramount. I know CSX in Jacksonville, Fl. was at one time looking to do hosting in their data center. That was years ago, and I don't know if that is still the case, but you might talk to them. They had a heck of a facility. The problem with data guard, at that distance, could be latency. RF Robert G.

The reason is we donĒt appreciate the security risk to other clients in there. Now If you really want unrestricted access IĒm sure we can build a cage around your hardware that we can lock you into, for a cost of course. ______________________________________________________________ Dick Goulet / Capgemini North AmericaP&C / East Business Unit Senior Oracle DBA / Hosting Office: 508.573.1978 / Mobile : 508.742.5795 / www.capgemini.com Fax: 508.229.2019 / Email: richard.goulet@capgemini.com 45 Bartlett St. / Marlborough , MA 01752 Together: the Collaborative Business Experience ______________________________________________________________ ________________________________ From:oracle-l-bounce@freelists.org [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@freelists.org] On Behalf Of Howard Latham Sent: Tuesday, May 06, 2008 10:59 AM To: oracle-l Subject: CO-LOCATION We are looking for a good site for DR where can have an active standby using 11g for a 500 gig database. One site told us we couldn't have access to their building and "Oh yes we have 24*7 technicians with Oracle 11g Active Dataguard experience" but seriously does anyone have views on hosting where you have to everything remotely and does anyone know a good co location site near Leicester Square ? -- Howard A.
