Now that @OracleDatabase is released on aarch64, if you think about running on @awscloud Graviton 2, look at the pricing: that's 1 processor license per vCPU (vs. one per 2 vCPU on hyperthreaded x86-64). The "core factor" makes it x4 more expensive than on @OracleCloud's Arm

Imagine! It‘s the 10th #anniversary of @Oracle #multitenant! In 19c you get up to three PDBs per CDB without the need for the Multitenant database option license. In 21c and higher, the Multitenant Architecture is mandatory for @OracleDatabase.

Ran into another customer upgrading @OracleDatabase to 12.2 from 11g...DO NOT DO THAT. Go all the way up to 19c. @MikeDietrichDE has a very good reason why => https://t.co/jESDCqKybB
