By using Oracle you can benefit from features in Oracle infrastructure such as backup and restore.
For Artifactory to run with Oracle you must create a dedicated Oracle database instance and then configure Artifactory to use it as described in the following sections.
Enable Non-PostgreSQL Database
From Artifactory 7.84, new Artifactory installations support only PostgreSQL in the default installation. Artifactory will not start after installation unless you configure the system.yaml
file to support non-PostgreSQL database.
For more information on configuring the system.yaml
after installation, see Configure Artifactory to use Oracle.
Upgrading the Database?
To avoid a regression of performance while upgrading the Oracle database (as a result of changes in the execution plans), make sure to preserve the optimizer's behavior from the previous version. For more details, please refer to Oracle documentation on influencing the Optimizer.
