data guard bandwidth requirements

Hi Everyone,

A customer is trying to use logical Dataguard to replicate a high volume of data with very low latency. I am trying to check whether their network will be a problem for this requirement...


So looking at this link:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/availability/dataguardnetwork-092224.html
The formula used in the paper (assuming a conservative TCP/IP network overhead of 30%) is: Required bandwidth = ((Redo rate bytes per sec. /  0.7) * 8) / 1,000,000 = bandwidth in Mbps

 
Customer needs to support 162GB redo per hour peak... So I’ve calculated that as 45MB per second
((45000000 / 0.7) * 8) / 1,000,000 = 514 Mbps. 

 Customers Network:
1x1Gb (Gigabit Ethernet) network card which has to handle the data from App Server and to the Target system.  (A switch to 10Gb will require significant hardware change and be expensive)

Howdy, Stranger!
