This application lets you view information about Oracle NoSQL Database features, SDK Drivers, and Frameworks.

• Use the Features report to view database features introduced since Oracle NoSQL Database 18 Release 1(18.1). You can easily search, filter, and compare feature availability across Oracle NoSQL Database releases.
• Use the SDK Drivers report to view the database features for various SDK drivers such as Java, Python, Node.js, Go, and C# supported by Oracle NoSQL Database.
• Use the Frameworks report to view the features supported by the Spring Framework.

Overview

Use the Features report to view features introduced since Oracle NoSQL Database 18 Release 1(18.1). Releases that include a feature are indicated by a green check box in the table and a tag under the feature name. The Initial Release is indicated under the first green check box for each feature. You can filter by Oracle NoSQL Database On-premise or Cloud Services, sub-areas, search for features, and compare releases. Deprecated features are indicated by a yellow triangle.

Filtering Sub Areas

The database feature set is divided into Focus Areas, each of which contains Sub Areas. You can filter by drilling down into various Focus and Sub Areas.

For example, to view all features on SQL Query Language:

1. In Focus Area, select Application Development.

2. In Sub Area, select SQL Query Language.

Drilling Down into a Feature

To drill down into a feature for more information, click the feature name. A modal box containing the following information appears:

• Feature Description: A brief description of the feature.
• Release Availability: The applicable releases for the feature.
• Parent Feature (where the parent feature name is different from the feature name): You can use the feature if you are licensed for its parent feature.
• Available On:
  • ALL OFFERINGS: There are no licensing requirements for the feature. You can use the feature on all offerings without obtaining any special licenses.
  • Enterprise Edition: You can use the feature on Enterprise Edition only.
• Initial Release: The premier release for the feature.

Filtering and Comparing Releases

By default, the application shows all features introduced since Oracle NoSQL Database 18 Release 1 (18.1). You can select either On Premise or Cloud Service to view the applicable features. Further, if you select On Premise, you can choose the releases of interest to compare them.

For example, to compare all features in Oracle NoSQL Database 18.x and 19.x:

1. In Focus Area, select All Focus Areas.

2. Select On Premise.

3. Under Version, select 18.x and 19.x.

The application now shows the cumulative features in Oracle NoSQL Database 18.x and 19.x. A feature that was newly introduced in 19.x has a gray X under 18.x, and a green check under 19.x You can also view its applicability to other higher releases. Features that were introduced in 18.x or earlier have green checks under 18.x release onward up to the latest supported release. A deprecated feature has a yellow triangle under the release number.

Using Search

You can use search to locate features by name or keyword. The search function returns the features that contain the query term in either the Feature Name, Feature Description, or Business Benefit. For example, a query of "asynchronous" returns features that mention this term. You can also search on keywords, function names, and parameters. For example, a query of "Multi-Region" returns all features that mention this feature.

Note that Focus Area, Sub Area, and Version filtering apply to the search. To search all features when you have selected On Premise option:

1. In Sub Area, deselect all options.
2. In Version, deselect all options.
3. In Focus Area, select All Focus Areas.
4. Enter your search term.

Overview

Use the SDK Drivers report to view the SDK language driver features for the various language drivers and the Oracle NoSQL Database offerings. A green check indicates that the SDK language driver feature is available for a particular offering; a gray X indicates that it is not applicable. The supported version of the SDK language driver feature is indicated under the green check box. If the SDK language driver feature support is planned in the future release for a feature, it is indicated as a roadmap icon. You can filter by SDK language drivers, view the available Plugins and Extensions, and search the feature list.

For each feature, the availability is indicated as either All Offerings or Cloud Service in the report.

• ALL OFFERINGS: There are no licensing requirements for the feature. You can use the feature and SDK drivers on all offerings without obtaining any special licenses.
• Cloud Service: You can use the feature and SDK drivers only on NoSQL Database Cloud Services.

Filtering SDK Language Drivers

You can filter the offerings based on the SDK language drivers. You can select only one language driver at a time.
