Hi
What is the difference between "CLONING" and "REPLICATION".
Can we clone a database running in 8i to the database running in
9i.

Thanks

Hi

Cloning is taking a snapshot while replication is a continuous process. The business requirements are also different. While the former is based for creating a TEST/DEV copy, the later is for DR.

You can clone DB only at same patch set level.

I don't know if someone keeps a list of web pages that discusses this problem (i.e. difference between replication and cloning in an Oracle database). Perhaps someone really does; he/she'll simply take it out and either type it here for you, or use a good old copy-paste technique.

However, I much more believe that people rely on another approach: use one of Internet search engines. Now, why would anyone bother to open Google and type those keywords to show you links Google returned?

I just can't understand why wouldn't YOU do that? /forum/fa/456/0/ for it by yourself!
