Oracle Instant Client Downloads for z/Linux (64-bit)


Oracle Instant Client enables development and deployment of applications that connect to Oracle AI Database, either on-premise or in the cloud. The Instant Client libraries provide the necessary network connectivity and advanced data features to make full use of Oracle AI Database. The libraries support popular languages and environments including Python, Node.js, Go, PHP and Ruby, as well as providing access for Oracle Call Interface (OCI), Oracle C++ Call Interface (OCCI), JDBC OCI, ODBC and Pro*C applications. Tools included in Instant Client include SQL*Plus, SQL*Loader and Oracle Data Pump that provide quick and convenient data access. For more information, see the Instant Client Home Page. For information on the tools and libraries provided for the Pro*C and Pro*COBOL precompilers, see the Precompiler Downloads page.

Installation Steps

  1. Download the appropriate Instant Client packages for your platform. All installations REQUIRE the Basic package.
  2. Unzip the packages into a single directory such as "instantclient".
  3. Set the library loading path in your environment to the directory in Step 2 ("instantclient"). On many UNIX platforms, LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the appropriate environment variable.
  4. Start your application.
