Please provide your opinion:

Where the industry is today, would you put a 24x7x365 (very, very little down time) business on Linux machines running RAC (more than likely 2 nodes)? The cluster software need to be 'bullet proof.' In fact everything must be bullet proof. Also, we are using 9iAS for the application/web tiers.

My management is asking this because of financial constraints. As with many companies, the stability of the system will determine the success of our future.

Thank you very much for your time !
