This is gonna sound crazy but here goes . . .
Can you, should you, run multiple full databases on one 12c non-cloud RAC?
- Yes you can have multiple schema in one database. Not asking that.
- Yes you can install multiple vendors products into one database. In this instance having multiple schemas from various vendors visible in the same database. Not asking that.
- Not asking about creating multitenant database container DBs (not a Cloud environment).
More clearly, running the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant (dbca) against the same Oracle RAC (and SCAN name) creating multiple independent databases on a RAC each with their own SID.
Thus far in the RACs I have been working with it has only had one functional database. If doing this with a RAC database is common - it is just new to me.
Thanks,
