RE: Oracle Development on 18c XE

This is just for development of a automation/monitoring schema in the DB. Performance, built in packages and so on. The issue is if the data is the same in the views coming back from XE that it is from EE, especially for things like multitenant. Can I expect roughly the same data/columns? Sounds like it is at least good enough to get started and I can always test in SE/EE later. I build unit tests so I will know pretty much right away if something is broken.

Thanks for the feedback.

The other concern, depending on your usage of course, is the lack of patches. Depending on company policy this can be a show stopper.

I think in the past I avoided the free edition of SE because of some issues but wondering if that might still be a thing I need to be concerned about.
