Melanie, It depends on how much you can afford and how well you need to be protected. For the price of a spare server, Remedy will provide HOTBACKUP license keys (no charge) for your server and floating write licenses. You should be able to do a file system backup and restore to "prime" the spare server, then RMAN backup/restore to move the tablespace (for DR or DR testing). This is what we implemented. Time permitting, I'd like to look into Oracle .dmp exports/imports instead of RMAN.
For a few more dollars and some coding, you could invest in DSO which would maintain a separate server - updates made to the primary and backup servers. The backup server would need to be fully licensed, but would be available at all times - no/little recovery time. You might even be able to distribute your workload if necessary.
