What is oracle
• A multinational computer technology corporation known for its
database software and technology, cloud engineered systems, and
enterprise software products. Oracle's database, Oracle Database, is
one of the most widely used relational database management
systems (RDBMS) in the world.
• More than just databases
Other than just databases
• Other technological support than databases
• Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)
• Oracle provides a suite of enterprise applications for various business
functions
• Oracle provides hardware solutions optimized for its software
Oracle Database
• Oracle Database is a relational database management system
(RDBMS) developed by Oracle Corporation. It is one of the most
widely used and powerful database systems in the world, known for
its
• robustness,
• scalability, and
• advanced features.

Key Features of Oracle
Database
• Relational Model:
• Oracle Database is based on the relational model, storing data in tables with
rows and columns.
• It supports SQL (Structured Query Language) for querying and managing
data.
• Scalability and Performance:
• Oracle Database is designed to handle large volumes of data and high
transaction rates.
• It supports partitioning, clustering, and in-memory processing for improved
performance.
Key Features of Oracle
Database
• High Availability:
• Features like Real Application Clusters (RAC), Data Guard, and Automatic
Storage Management (ASM) ensure high availability and disaster recovery.
• Security:
• Oracle provides robust security features, including encryption, access
controls, auditing, and data masking to protect sensitive data.
• Multitenant Architecture:
• Oracle introduced the Multitenant Architecture in Oracle Database 12c,
allowing multiple databases (called pluggable databases) to run within a
single container database (CDB). This simplifies management and reduces
resource usage.
Key Features of Oracle
Database
• Advanced Analytics:
• Oracle Database supports in-database analytics, machine learning,
and spatial data processing for advanced data analysis.
• Cloud Integration:
• Oracle Database is fully integrated with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI),
enabling seamless migration to the cloud and hybrid deployments.
• PL/SQL:
• Oracle's proprietary procedural language, PL/SQL, is used for writing stored
procedures, triggers, and functions within the database.
Key Features of Oracle
Database
• Backup and Recovery:
• Oracle provides tools like RMAN (Recovery Manager) for efficient backup and
recovery operations.
• Cross-Platform Support:
• Oracle Database runs on various operating systems, including Windows,
Linux, and UNIX.
Editions of Oracle Database
• Enterprise Edition: The most comprehensive edition, offering all
features for large-scale deployments.
• Standard Edition: A mid-tier edition for smaller-scale applications.
• Express Edition (XE): A free, lightweight version for learning and small
projects.
• Personal Edition: For single-user development and testing.
Recent Versions
• Oracle Database 19c: The long-term support release (LTS) with
stability and performance improvements.
• Oracle Database 21c: Introduced features like blockchain tables and
native JSON data type support.
• Oracle Database 23c: Focuses on developer productivity and AI/ML
integration.
Why not oracle / cons / challenges
• Cost: Oracle Database can be expensive, especially for large-scale
deployments.
• Complexity: Requires skilled database administrators (DBAs) for
optimal management.
• Resource-Intensive: Demands significant hardware resources for high
performance.
