Oracle Multimedia is deprecated in Oracle 18c

Posted on August 10, 2018 by Mike.Dietrich Deprecated / Desupported 4

While I was writing the blog post about Creating CDBs and non-CDBs with less options I realized that Oracle Multimedia is deprecated in Oracle 18c – but I haven’t mentioned this here yet.

Oracle Multimedia is deprecated in Oracle 18c

Oracle Multimedia was called Oracle Intermedia a long time ago when we introduced it back in the Oracle 8i days.

I don’t know how many people really used it, but it is part of a standard installation if you didn’t explicitly turned it off or deinstalled it.

And from Oracle 18c on, Oracle Multimedia is deprecated. Meaning, it won’t develop …

Non-CDB architecture still exists in Oracle Database 12.2.

Posted on March 14, 2017 by Mike.Dietrich Deprecated / Desupported Oracle Database 12.2.0.1 5

I received a question whether the Non-CDB architecture still exists in Oracle Database 12.2.from 3 different colleagues in the past week:

“Does Oracle Database 12.2 still allow us to create non-CDB databases?”

And as I get this question at every customer-facing workshop these days as well before being able to talk about Single/Multitenant – I think it is important to clarify it. The statement is misleading. And I can’t blame anybody about misreading it.

Is the non-CDB architecture still available/supported in Oracle Database 12.2?

I did blog about it a while ago – but Google is not always your …

What does DEPRECATED mean? And DESUPPORTED?

Posted on March 23, 2016 by Mike.Dietrich Deprecated / Desupported 6

There’s sometimes a misunderstanding about what we mean with the term DEPRECATED? And what is the difference to DESUPPORTED? Actually there’s a full chapter in the Database Upgrade Guide listing deprecated and desupported features.

Deprecated and Desupported – Oracle Database 12.1.0.2 Upgrade Guide

Deprecated

Especially this message puzzled a lot of customers stating that the non-CDB architecture is deprecated in Oracle Database 12c.

In the Database Upgrade Guide we clearly explain what deprecated means:

“By deprecate, we mean that the feature is no longer being enhanced but is still supported“

So for you it means just be …

Deprecation first of all does not mean “desupported”. It means in this case that you of course can have still stand-alone Oracle databases as you know the architecture from previous releases. But you can also have a single-tenant deployment (a CDB with one PDB – no Multitenant license required) or multitenant databases (a CDB with up to 252 PDBs – Multitenant Option license required).…
