Dear Suvankar On my setup, I have to run Mail and Web solution with some additional stuff(Mysql, Anti virus, Anti spam etc...). I had never tried oracle on this. Sorry, but do you have robust cluster environment. For me it's still looking very fragile(in network perspective), if network goes-off, or at peak load when nodes can not communicate to each other. This makes big chaos.
