Re: [EXTERNAL] Lift and Shift of Oracle EBS database and application tiers

Yeah - so regardless of Database on PaaS or Database on IaaS you can run with EBS 19c and speaking specifically about Database PaaS versus Database IaaS both options will offer you the ability to use very specific versions and individual patch levels should it so be required.

IaaS will pretty much offer you the most flexibility overall but that is only one of many, many considerations when making these choices.

Thank you,
