What’s included in Oracle Database 23c Free—Developer Release?
The complete developer functionality of Oracle’s converged database, plus the following:
JSON Relational Duality
Build apps in either relational or JSON paradigms with a single source of truth and benefit from the strengths of both—relational and document models. Data is stored once but can be accessed, written, and modified with either approach.
JavaScript stored procedures
Create high performance, data-driven apps by writing JavaScript stored procedures (powered by GraalVM) and importing existing JavaScript libraries into the database. Minimize round trips to the database by executing business logic directly in the data tier.
JSON Schemas
Use industry-standard JSON Schemas to ensure only valid data is inserted into a JSON column.
Property Graphs
Find and analyze relationships, predict trends, and discover lightning-fast insights using database-native property graphs views. Use new SQL-standard property graph queries to run graph analytics on top of relational and JSON data.
SQL Domains
Bring domain knowledge closer to the data by describing the intended use of data centrally and ensuring data is handled consistently across applications.
Annotations
Annotate common data model attributes for tables, columns, views, indexes, and more, providing a central, lightweight, declarative facility to register and exchange usage properties across apps.
