Reply from rjngh2005 on Apr 15 at 12:59 AM well...I am using E-Business Suite and we were asked to move to Oracle 10g
so....Yes oracle 9 has been desupported
what this means...No more patches
and if you encounter an issue they will try to help you if you have a
support contract
but they will not do any development.
There are still some people using Oracle 8 - One big example is a huge
pharmaceutical company that I know (dont want to name them)
they have to maintain records for 7 years about any drug...
so they have some data in Oracle 8 which was supported by some software and
now all they are doing is running reports on the data.
The drug testing and stuff is all done...so...they do not want to upgrade
the software and hence the oracle 8
They are using so many different software that I would say they have 5-10
percent in Oracle 8 out of the hundreds of Oracle instances
and since Oracle 9 has been extensively used I am sure you will not
encounter a bug...provided you use the recommended server operating system
The moment you try to use a modern Operating system....all bets are off !

Subject: Oracle 9i 32 Bit on 64 Bit LINUX Operating System
Should be OK, but check certification on Oracle site. Standalone 9i is long desupported.
Status is currently 'withdrawn' unless you are using bundled with another product such as E-Business Suite. |
