#32390 closed Cleanup/optimization (fixed)

Description

  • The end of premier support for Oracle 12.2 (EE) is November 2020 (with a special "Limited Error Correction Period" until March 2022).
  • The end of premier support for Oracle 18c (EE) is June 2021.

Neither of them has extended support. Therefore, Django 4.0 (released in December 2021) may set Oracle 19c (LTS) as the minimum version that it supports (see SupportedDatabaseVersions). Django 3.2 will be supported until April 2024.

We can also drop support for cx_Oracle < 7.0, because it adds support for Oracle Client 18+ libraries.
