We must be able to create a after row trigger on table (i.e., it should be not be already available)

We cannot specify snapshot log name because oracle uses the name of the master table in the name of the database objects that support its snapshot log. The master table name should be less than or equal to 23 characters.

Database on other servers can be updated and those transactions can be grouped together with others in a logical unit. Database uses a two phase commit.
