Are you sure that no way to implement a generic aproach on the backend? What does specification say? Does Oracle 10g have a core implementation of replication (cluster)?

And, as I say every single time this comes up, Oracle's and IBM's and MS's and everybody else's replication systems are _also_ add ons. If you don't believe me, look at the license costs. You can get a system without it enabled, which means (by definition) it's a modular extension.
