Streams. Transportable tablespaces.

But -as already mentioned- why change what's working, and still supported?

Why not simply use manual standby? Archive redo logs and send them to the
remote site. Restore db from backup, mount with the snapcf copy of the
controlfile taken by rman at end of redo log archive, roll it forward, shut it
down or open read only or open resetlogs, depending on what is needed in the
second site. There is a paper on that in MOS.
Works for me - and has worked for a looong time - it's not buggy and fast...
