Re: Nate Amsden containers are the future

real HA and containers means dumping all the stacking advantages of containers; "....Provision one Oracle Solaris Container per node or server...

The "C" in RAC is "cluster". You can create an HA RAC installation by clustering multiple physical servers, or you can create a virtual RAC installation by clustering multiple containers, one per server.

You can also, of course, create multiple RAC installations by creating multiple containers on each server. The "one Oracle Solaris Container per node" comment you misunderstood above is per RAC instance, not an absolute limit.

Maybe if you actually learned anough about Solaris to be competent, instead of just trying to be clever with snide mispellings, you might actually have a clue?
