Difference between Oracle versions!

Hello
I would like to know the difference between versions of oracle from oracle 7.
Also would like to know a way to understand the particular function works in version oracle x but not before version x.

for example. listagg function came in oracle 11.

Is there a link where I can find it and consolidated in one place.

LISTAGG was back in 11.2, to be exact.

Not that I know of.

From Oracle 9, there is a 'What's new' manual with all versions. For example:
http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B10501_01/server.920/a96531/TOC.htm
Also from Oracle 9, most commonly used textbooks have a "What's New" section to the beginning:
http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B10501_01/server.920/a96540/wnsql.htm#971925

  • What is the difference between a version of MAR and the software win7 INKL?

    * Original title: MAR v INKL

    What is the difference between a version of MAR and the software win7 INKL?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    • What exactly you're talking about when you say, 'Version INKL of Windows 7?

    I'll be happy to answer your query, however, please explain more about abbreviation INKL. There is a version called Office of ink that is used in the Tablet PC.

    Here's the other version of Windows, you can make reference to:

    MAR - Microsoft Authorized Reacondicionador

    A new PC requires a version of windows with a new key license installed if purchased from a manufacturer.

    A refurbished PC is allowed to use an existing product key (2nd hand if you like) as long as it is always delivered with a certificate of authenticity (COA). This is referred to as MAR (Microsoft authorized Reacondicionador) which means that Microsoft allows to use existing keys/licenses products.

    Buy a version of windows means MAR technically you buy a second hand copy - being however, software, so it comes with COST, will make absolutely no difference at all.

    N and KN editions

    The features in N and KN Editions are the same full versions of their equivalent, but do not include Windows Media Player or other technologies related to Windows Media, such as Windows Media Center and Windows DVD Maker because of the limits set by the European Union and South Korea, respectively. The cost of n and KN Editions are the same as the full versions, as the Media Feature Pack for Windows 7 N and Windows 7 KN can be downloaded for free from Microsoft.

    Generations of VL

    VL builds work with VLK (volume license key). Volume license keys can be used to activate multiple installations of the software without a mechanism (for example, a product activation mechanism) controls the total number of facilities. The license for the software is going to impose restrictions on the use of the key. In general, the license will limit the key to a certain number of facilities which must be only the Organization of the licensee and also to place the holder under the obligation to keep a record of the number of facilities, hold confidential and perhaps even require that the holder organization makes available for a software license check check that his use of the key is in the terms of the license.

    Please let us know what exactly are you referring to when you say version INKL of Windows 7, so we can further research and answer.

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

  • Differences between the version of BlackBerry Device Software and platform. Help, please...

    Hi guys!

    I'm really confused... Help, please!

    We have developed applications for our customers. We tested with our BB8700 and it works fine.

    We used JDE4.2 for development... and we think that it will work on v4.2 based handsets.

    But our customers wrote that it works on v3.7. Why? Is this possible?

    I looked at the information about my 8700 device and then noticed: v4.2.1.107 (platform v2.3.0.84)

    -What are the differences between the version of BlackBerry Device Software and platform?

    Possible customers spoke of version 3.7 of the platform?

    There is a list of the devices, where we can find the version of BlackBerry Device Software by BlackBerry device model?

    Or where we can find information about the models of devices that will support our application?

    Thanks in advance!

    AFAIK there is no version 3.7 platform.

    Customer talking about the OS version.

    So, if they have the device OS version 3.7 you must use JDE JDE 3.6, 3.7 or older.

    Or take updated device OS if the necessary software is available.

  • Difference between Oracle EDN and JMS topic

    Hi all

    Can someone explain in detail the difference between Oracle EDN and JMS topic?

    The only difference I see is

    JMS producer must specify the name of the topic to which the message is to go...

    the NDA does not specify where any point of termination (queue or topic), he just publish the event...

    Are there other differences? How to choose when to use Oracle EDN and JMS topics?

    Please, share your ideas...

    Thank you

    Oracle EDN also uses the subject or the database under.

    So there is no difference in low level technology

    However, the NDA is much easier to implement from the subject.

    EDN avoids you having to use create rubrics, create connection factories, creating adapters, update deployments etc. All this is supported internally in the NDA and is available out of the BOX for you. You simply set an EVENT and then publish / subscribe it.

    However, you can use topics when you have other subscribers of third party such as SAP, Siebel, because the NDA is strongly coupled with Oracle SOA, BPEL, mediator components.

  • Difference between 'Oracle certified Specailist (OCS)' and 'OPN CS.

    Hello

    I want to know the difference between 'Oracle Certified Specailist (OCS)' and 'OPN certified Specailist. If the two are the same? I doubt that the logos are different for the two. No idea...?

    The main page of the Program of Certification Oracle has links to all the certification paths. These links include the cost of each review. For example, the credentials of Oracle 11 g database Certified Application Specialist requires the exam 1Z0-514, which costs $ 195. Different certification exams can have a different cost.

  • What is the difference between oracle and peoplesoft databases

    What is the difference between oracle and peoplesoft databases. How the tables of metadata between the two relate?

    According to my understanding, peoplesoft database exists as a schema on the oracle database.
    Please correct me if iam wrong.

    user4212454 wrote:
    ...
    The second statement, I realized that each schema created its specific use.
    for example, peoplesoft had 1000 objects (including the peopletools and application and system tables), each schema created above has access restrictions different on these database of 1000 objects. Am I wrong?

    Yes, each schema has its own purpose and the grant for objects of Peoplesoft. SYSADM is the owner of the objects of Peoplesoft with all rights. PS is the owner of one and same table, PSDBOWNER and the PEOPLE is granted to select three of these tables (PSOPRDEFN and PSACCESSPRFL PSDBOWNER).

    In addition, for DB2, what are the patterns of PeopleSoft?

    It is located in the installation documentation dedicated to the database you want to work on:

    The first statement, could you please elaborate on the part highlighted.

    A "Peoplesoft database" is nothing, it's terms to refer to a database containing everything you need to make a Peoplesoft application running.

  • Difference between Oracle and Prometric test center?

    What is the difference between Oracle and Prometric Testing Center?

    Pass the examination in a CTA is exactly the same as the exam at Prometric. The review is exactly the same and it's exactly the same thing. The only difference is the location where the examination is taken, so I believe that over-the-counter medications have set schedules to offer tests, take exams at Prometric can give you a little more freedom to your schedule.

    Answers to the questions:
    can you any valid CTA agent/Center in kolkata? Then I will be very grateful
    -You should go to www.oracle.com/education and you can search on the keywords "certification" or "OTC test"

    There may be some had differences to one after installing SP1 and not the other, but there is no essential difference between products as long as they are two full versions (and not upgrade versions).  There are not two "types of Vista Ultimate other than vs full upgrade, that the existence of the service packs in the copy you use, if they are the same size of bit (32 or 64) and the format you receive the.»  There is no "older Version" except for beta versions that are out before the product was officially launched (and I can't find any infomration on how these beta versions are different official versions that came later.)  There may be some differences in discs as they are OEM disks or Installation of Vista real diskettes (but again this is not documented).

    Can I ask why he should know the differencce beccasue two names, you have provided only differ me where we got SP1 preinstalled (and no, I don't have a list of what SP1 includes making different).
