    Currently, as per RAC configuration, one node RAC or multinode RAC configuration is there. Customers who don't have licenses to run RAC simultaneously in multiple servers at the same time can opt for one node RAC configuration while they can still have the flavour of failover.

    When doing daily jobs, if you’re sharing large files, I think Dropbox works a lot better but if you have a system where you’re working within that system and you want to be able to work with that system and have certain folders that you have access to all the time then SugarSync might be just the ticket.

    • Sync files in any folder - rather than forcing you to store them in a certain place (Although this can be confusing too)
    • Works in the background - although this is true for all
    • You can share with others - including those who do not use SugarSync

    Cons
    Oracle
    • Oracle Real Application Clusters is totally dependant on DBA's . It would be great if it can be simplified somehow
    • Its license cost
    • Enabling usage in standard edition

    • Can only think of one thing. I have helped others to get going with SugarSync and they if they have problems it is understanding the cloud.... So maybe (if it dosen't exist already) I would like to have a animation of the proces with "flying" folders between desktops, clouds etc. Otherwise SugarSync is just great.

    1. Freemium model is the ideal marketing for an app like this. 2. Now their sync methods with Android are worse

    Choosing Oracle Real Application Clusters over SQL Server Cluster was actually a business requirement. As the nature of business demanded Oracle RDBMS. As a clustering solution, RAC comes into the picture easily, so it was not a hard choice to choose Oracle Real Application Clusters over SQL Server.

    SugarSync, like all solutions, has its place in the data storage stack within a company. The main reason SugarSync is better than the other solutions is that it enables me to leave my hard drive organized and keep my existing file trees. I don't have to constantly move or copy files to a specific folder if I want them backed up.
