Oracle 12cR2 (12.2) has been around for a while on the cloud, but for many people it doesn’t really exist until they’ve downloaded it and run it on an “on-prem” server or a VM on their PC.
If you are of that mind, you will be pleased to know the on-prem release has arrived! You can download it from eDelivery or OTN.
I’ve been writing about it for a while (here), but it’s nice to have the on-prem release and the knowledge that someone might actually read the stuff I’m writing now (or in about 5 years when people start to use it). 🙂
There will of course be the usual rash of installation articles coming from me for a while, before I get back to more interesting things…
Happy downloading…
Cheers
Tim…
Update: My first installs here.
Linux and Solaris only?
Nup, pass…
@Noons – the other platforms follow shortly. Check MOS note “Release Schedule of Current Database Releases (Doc ID 742060.1)” it says Q2CY2017 for the main platforms.
