Oracle Real Application Clusters Architecture - Oracle RAC
Describe the Oracle Real Application Clusters Architecture?
- Oracle RAC consists of a database that is represented in a clustered manner in the architecture.
- The cluster is the collection or pool of independent servers that make up one single system.
- Cluster architecture provides more flexibility to manage and follow a modular incremental approach to improve the fault errors and provide an incremental system.
- This architecture provides the maximum security in terms of ensuring high availability of the resources to the users.
- It provides the resources on demand and provides hardware architecture such that a single point of failure is being removed.
- The architecture provides the decoupling of the Oracle instance like the process and memory that are running on the server from the Oracle database.
