Ability to Use Multiple Kerberos Principals with a Single Database Client

Security → Encryption

Starting with this release, when you configure Kerberos authentication for an Oracle Database client, you can specify multiple Kerberos principals with a single Oracle Database client. To enable this functionality, you will need to create a separate credential cache for each user in the client and then use the connect string to specify the user.

Business Benefit: In previous releases, you were restricted to one Kerberos principal for each Oracle Database client.
