Product Description

Real Application Clusters (RAC) and the Grid architecture are Oracle's strategy for scaling out enterprise systems to cope with bigger workloads and more users. Many books limit themselves by conceptualizing and theorizing about RAC technology, but this book is the first to portray implementing and administering an Oracle 10g RAC system in a Linux environment. This book features basic concepts underlying Linux and Oracle RAC, design strategies, hardware procurement and configuration, and many other topics. The RAC-specific technologies described include configuration of the interconnect, OCFS, ASM, Cluster Ready Services, and Grid Control. The Oracle features RMAN and Data Guard are also discussed, along with available hardware options. The authors include practical examples and configuration information, so that upon reading this book, youll be armed with the information you need to build an Oracle RAC database on Linux, whether it is on a single laptop or a 64-node Itanium cluster.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 11 Aug 2009

By	R. J. Mycroft "Bob Mycroft" (Yorkshire) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is an excellent book for anyone wanting to learn about Oracle's Real Application Clustering (RAC) technologies. Its easy to read, well laid out and goes into a reasonable amount of detail without losing the reader. Although the title is "RAC on Linux", I wouldnt be put off buying this book if you are on some other flavour of *nix as pretty much everything conceptual still applies. The examples and code in the book are all based around Oracle 10g R2 - heres hoping Julian is writing a followup for 11g!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good - very technical, 26 Dec 2008

By	J. Erlank (London, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'm pretty happy with this book. It's got a lot of pure technical detail and very little waffle. If you want a lot of hand-holding, then this is probably not the book for you: it doesn't prescribe what you should do; instead it gives you the background information so you can make your own decisions.

It covers the whole stack, which is essential - you can't build a RAC solution without paying attention to the storage hardware, network etc.

If I had to criticise, I would say that a few more diagrams would help. More an improvement than a significant weakness.

I would place it as most suitable for developers or administrators already well experienced with Oracle and Unix/Linux. If you're a newcomer, then you probably also want one of the many good (non-RAC) architecture books (Kyte's Expert Oracle Database Architecture maybe) or possibly a course. But if you are experienced, then this book should be all you need to devise a RAC solution.
