Coming in Oracle AI Database #SQL assertions These enable you to create cross row, cross table constraints with SQL standard syntax CREATE ASSERTION … CHECK ( [ NOT ] EXISTS ( <query> ) ) @toonkoppelaars.bsky.social explains at #DOAG2025

gvenzl/oracle-free images are now available for #Oracle AI #Database 23.26.0!

Database deployments can fail But rolling back schema changes is tricky - so plan them @jasminfluri.bsky.social runs through options Versioned Migrations with Reversible Scripts Backups before Changes Immutable Migrations & Forward Fixes Restore Points & Flashbacks

Last week, at pgconf.eu I got the best feedback ever. I was told: "You saved my life! Since I know Merise there's not a week where I don't use it and show it to my coworkers!" Here are the slides: l_avrot.gitlab.io/slides/meris...

📚 New Reading List is out! This week, we take a closer look at #Oracle #Database#Oraclecapabilities with a bit of #Oracle #Cloud Infrastructure in the mix. Happy reading!

So thankful to be part of this community! 🙏 @oracleace.bsky.social swag arrived just in time for the moody central european autumn weather. 🍂🍁 🫶

A short summary of the differences between UUIDv4 and #UUIDv7 and an idea how it could be implemented in #Oracle #database. A UUID datatype would be nice 😉. @oracleace.bsky.social medium.com/@jasminfluri...

I felt like writing a blog post —a little write-up on why fixing failed #database deployments is challenging. Spoiler: The part about undo-scripts might feel like a rant, probably because it is. 🙃 medium.com/@jasminfluri...

Nothing new here, but a bit depressing... Oracle extends 19c database support to 2032, making it 'longest strategic release' www.theregister.com/2025/02/18/o...

Oracle Database 23.6 added sessionless transactions These enable you to: Start a transaction in session 1 Suspend it Resume the transaction in session 2 Complete it in session 2 This allows the app to release DB connections while doing other work mid-transaction

Join me next Wednesday (12 Feb) to learn about using PL/SQL to build #database APIs We'll cover Oracle Database 23ai enhancements to help you do this such as: Better loops Extended case expressions JSON integration The automatic SQL transpiler Starts 10am UK time go.oracle.com/LP=146704?el...

Truer words have never been spoken.....

Nothing like doing some yak shaving to start the week... initial goal seems to consist of numerous side quests. Work RPG I guess.

In this session we looked at how to - Structure database code files in version control - Use Liquibase in SQcl to automate database releases Thanks to @jasminfluri.bsky.social for joining me The recording is now available at www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zmmy...

After my last blog post, a discussion started about user permissions and CI/CD. So, I wrote a short story about the problem that occurs when using a schema user for application access or in database schema deployments. @oracleace.bsky.social medium.com/@jasminfluri...

Here are my book recommendations for the new year: Read the books you already bought.

All the cats exist, unlike 23ai on-prem.

Discussions about highly available database deployments made me think about new use cases of #Oracle EBR: Canary Releasing and A/B Testing of applications. --> When we want to have multiple application versions, we should have multiple database versions too! medium.com/@jasminfluri...

Behind every successful code, there is a substantial amount of coffee. It’s 50% caffeine, 50% ingenuity, 100% refusal to sleep until the bug is fixed. Dev life is not a job, it's a lifestyle.

Part 5 of my "Whirlwind Tour of Database Schema Changes" is live! I reviewed Oracle SQLcl's "Project" feature - a game changer for Database & APEX deployments. Kudos to @thatjeffsmith.com and his Database Tools team! rafal.hashnode.dev/part5-sqlcl-... #oracle #orclAPEX #cicd

🚀 Being back from #DOAG2024, I started writing blog posts again. As DBAs hate it to be bothered by developers, the blog post explains how they can avoid it. 🔗 Nothing new under the sun, but documented for later reference: medium.com/@jasminfluri...

The real reason why it's called "reactive" programming

Back in August, our paper about #database CI/CD was published in Wiley Journal of Software. 📰 🔗 You can find it here ⬇️ onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
