Modernizing Mission-Critical Oracle E-Business Suite On AWS: A Success Story In Migration And Optimization
AWS, Wednesday, June 4th, 2025
Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) has been the standard for high-availability mission-critical applications in government and enterprises, requiring specialized on-premises infrastructure including high-end servers, storage area networks (SANs), and dedicated networking.
While effective for specific use cases, RAC presents challenges including high operational costs from licensing, infrastructure, and skilled personnel requirements. Its complexity can lead to increased downtime, and many implementations result in underutilized capabilities despite substantial investments.
