TECHNOLOGY: Ask Tom
On Oracle Database 12c, Part 1By Tom Kyte
Our technologist improves default values, handles bigger datatypes, and FETCHes for the first time.
Usually I take three or four user-submitted questions from the past two months and present those questions and answers here in each Ask Tom column. In the next four columns, however, I will take a look at some key Oracle Database 12c features. These features are all part of the “12 Things About Oracle Database 12c” presentation I gave at Oracle OpenWorld 2012 in San Francisco. (You can find the slides for that presentation on asktom.oracle.com on the Files tab). The first three Oracle Database 12c features I’ll take a look at are
- Improved defaults
- Bigger datatypes
- Top-n queries
