Re: Any ideas about why support for Oracle 19c has been extended again?

It's funny you say that Mladen, because at Cloudworld they were touring all the features in the database as the "unified database" (or whatever term they used) for having Jason and xml and everything in the one database, and as a Production DBA having to patch the bugs i wanted to eat my hat. That's the _while_ problem with their database offering now. It doesn't do anything especially well without having some pretty nasty bugs to contend with. It's annoying.
