Hello Ed We are using replication for one application, Dealing room. This is synchronous replication between 2 computers sitting in the same room connected by dedicated cable. The target is to have up to date second database in case of machine failure.
I got lost quickly in the manual and finally did the right thing. Called Oracle support and paid for in site consulting. The guy came over and after 6-7 hours had a script that generate replication for a schema. I put it in production about 1 year ago and no problems since.
