The following table lists the features and benefits of Oracle RAC when used with
Sterling B2B Integrator:
Features Benefits
Load balancing Oracle RAC supports initial connection time load balancing and runtime
connection load balancing. However, running Sterling B2B Integrator
with load balancing turned on is likely to result in performance issues.
On the client side (jdbc url), you should set the parameter LOAD_BALANCE
to OFF. On the server side, turn off load balancing on the database
service.
SCAN (Single
Client Access
Name)
Available in Oracle RAC 11g R2, SCAN allows you to set up RAC
failover without specifying nodes. Using traditional RAC in Sterling B2B
Integrator, you configure the JDBC URL to name an initial node and a
failover node. With SCAN, you configure the JDBC URL so that SCAN
selects the initial node and fails over to the other available node.
A benefit to using SCAN over traditional RAC is that you do not need
to update the URL when a node name changes. There is, however, a
potential performance degradation as SCAN searches for an available
node.
