Flashback Data Archive / Total Recall
.
From the white papers I've read, it appears that Flashback Data Archive (FDA) is a part of the 11g database and as such does not require separate licensing.
.
It looks like Total Recall is the only tool to use for reporting from the FDA. And it requires licensing based on the number of CPUs.
.
Questions:
1) Am I correct about FDA not requiring separate licensing?
2) Is Total Recall the only reporting tool for use with FDA or are there cheaper/free alternatives?
