I used Shareplex a couple companies ago. I think they're still using it. We were replicating between 2 production server and 2 reporting servers. It worked great and I'd definitely use it again if I was on Oracle and had money to burn. We also tried to switch out Shareplex with DSO to try and save cost but the performance wasn't good enough with DSO for our requirements. As it was put to us by one of the DSO architects "It's DSO, not Replico" :)

There will be major changes in our Remedy system architecture soon and we are trying to be prepared with a concept to support it. Our company currently uses one production server for ticketing purpose. The server is located in Europe. According to the new plans, there will be a new production server deployed for the USA region. Both these servers has to be real-time synchronized and they would have to contain the same case related data, so that they can replace each other in case of failures or outages. The no-brainer solution of course would be DSO. But considering the amount of data to be transferred, our belief is that with DSO the overhead on the systems will be huge and this leads to intensive network traffic that would cause performance problems for us. We are planning to use a solution based on a database syncronization product called Shareplex for Oracle. Does anyone of you have experience in synchronizing Remedy using this product? What are you guys using for syncing your systems? I would appreciate if you shared your ideas with me.
