Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) allow customers to run a single Oracle Database across multiple servers in order to maximize availability and enable horizontal scalability, while accessing shared storage. User sessions connecting to Oracle RAC instances can failover and safely replay changes during outages, without any changes to end user applications, hiding the impact of the outages from end users.N/A

Rocket iCluster reduces downtime related to unexpected IBM i system interruptions, with real-time, fault tolerant, object-level replication. In the event of an outage, a “warm” mirror of a clustered IBM i system can be brought into service within minutes.N/A

Currently, as per RAC configuration, one node RAC or multinode RAC configuration is there. Customers who don't have licenses to run RAC simultaneously in multiple servers at the same time can opt for one node RAC configuration while they can still have the flavour of failover.
