Real Application Testing backported to 10g and 9i

This functionality has been such a success that Oracle has decided to backport it to previous supported releases. That includes 9.2.0.8, 10.1.0.2 and up, 10.2.0.2 and up.

The easiest path is 10.2.0.4 because it includes the RAT functionality, any other option needs an additional patch in order to enable it.

Personally I consider Oracle has made a very smart move, this feature may wake upgrade desire everywhere and add one more reason to make the effort and upgrade to 10g... and who knows, even trigger a jump to 11g in some cases.
