[OIM 8.2] Oracle database versions supported

8.2 uses the managed Oracle Data Provider for .NET (Version 4.122.21.1) and according to Oracle, access to Oracle Database 11g Release 2 or later is possible.

Markus,

thank you!

I'm curious, is there any workaround for older databases? (may be some "generic" database connector?)

Did you experience issues with an older version and if so, which version?

Markus,

actually today we are using an another IAM product. Which, unfortunaltely is limited in terms of connectors, especially for old oracle database
versions. So we are searching for alternative IAM solutions, with a strong/comprehensive connector part.
Thats why, I wanted to figure out if the last version of OneIM supports oracle 11.

If the Oracle Connector is not working, you could use the ADO.NET-based connector and use another ADO.NET provider allowing you to connect to the older Oracle Database versions.

Ok, interesting!
Do you know if this approach (ADO.Net based connector) would require some deep customizations/developments (C#/VB)?

Depends on what you are doing. For reading, no deep customization is necessary (Pure Oracle P-QL code for selecting the data). If you want to write data back to the oracle database, some code (C# or VB.NET) is necessary.

Ok, thanks Markus!

Yes, the idea is to set up a fully functional connector in order to provision/synchronize users and rights.
