近期Oracle更新了其相应数据库版本的支持周期计划，从目前公布的情况来看，目前市面上的Oracle 11.2/12.1/12.2 都即将达到支持周期尽头：

Release Schedule of Oracle Database Releases -New插图

从上述Timelines来看，18c简直一个生命周期最短的版本。说到这里可笑的事儿，居然还有个别客户之前被忽悠上了Oracle exadata，且使用的是Oracle 18c。由此来看，这是一个不太明智的选择，至少数据库版本的选择并非最佳。实际上我们在不少客户哪里见过18c版本中的大量Bug。

Recommended Upgrade Path

Updated Oracle recommends the following upgrade options:

  • For product longevity and patching, Oracle strongly recommends upgrading to 19c which is the Long Term Release with a support end date of April 30, 2027 (or April 30, 2025 if you choose not to pay Extended Support fees or purchase a ULA).
  • If you are currently running 11.2.x/12.1.x you will need to upgrade to the terminal release (i.e. 11.2.0.4/12.1.0.2) for the DB Release you are running and then continue the upgrade process by upgrading to the 19c. 11.2.0.4 is in Sustaining Support with Market Driven Support available for some platforms. 12.1.0.2 is in Sustaining Support with Market Driven Support available beginning January 1, 2023 for some platforms.
  • If you are currently running 12.2.0.1 or 18c, you should upgrade to 19c without delay.  18c and 12.2 are  in Sustaining Support.

1 Oracle Base Database Service, Exadata Database Service on Dedicated Infrastructure, and Exadata Cloud at Customer follow the same support life and error correction schedule as on-premises dates unless otherwise noted in Table 1 above (for example, 11.2.0.4 MDS). Also, Extended Support is bundled with these services and does not require additional fees. These services will not be covered under Sustaining Support and Oracle makes no commitment that any cloud service instances will continue to run after the end of their support life (Premier, extended, error correction, or MDS).  We will not disable any installed databases upon the expiration of support, but the underlying infrastructure will continue to be updated. The infrastructure updates may render the unpatched databases inoperable. We make no commitment as to how long any unpatched databases will continue to run.

2 Oracle’s current plan for Oracle Autonomous Database – Shared Exadata Infrastructure, Oracle Autonomous Database – Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure, Autonomous Database on Exadata Cloud@Customer services is to support Long Term Release versions for a similar period of time found for those major releases when deployed on-premises. The intent of this plan is to provide stability of service experience for the thousands of critical database deployments found in Oracle Cloud. Additionally, we will at times make available Innovation Releases as part of the Autonomous Database Cloud Services. Innovation Releases, when provided, will be supported for a shorter period of time as compared to a Long Term Release, similar to what is found for those releases when deployed on-premises. Oracle reserves the right to change this plan with changing business requirements. Any change will take into account that stability is of utmost importance to Oracle’s many thousands of mission critical deployments.
