  • June 2021: Oracle will use best effort to support the Oracle 12.1.0.2 Database on Microsoft Windows until July 2022. See Table 1

  • May 2021: Oracle is not planning to release 21c on IBM AIX Power Systems and IBM Linux on System Z

Oracle Database Release Roadmap

There are two types of Oracle Database releases: Long Term Release and Innovation Release.

  • Long Term Release:

Oracle Database Long Term Releases are ideal for use cases that benefit from less frequent upgrades to newer releases. Long Term Releases offer the highest level of stability and the longest length of error correction support. These releases have 5 years of Premier Support followed by 3 years of Extended Support. When combined with Extended Support, customers typically have almost 4 years to upgrade from one Long Term Release to the next Long Term Release.

  • Innovation Release:

In between Oracle Database Long Term Releases, Oracle delivers Oracle Database Innovation Releases that include many enhancements and new capabilities which will also be included in the next Long Term Release. Innovation Releases are designed to enable customers to continuously use leading-edge technologies to rapidly develop or deploy new applications or augment existing applications. Support for Innovation Releases includes at least 2 years of Premier Support, but there is no Extended Support. Production workloads can be deployed on Innovation Releases if upgrading to the next database release within one year after the next database release ships is factored into the deployment plan.

To help you plan ahead, below is a visual roadmap that captures Oracle Database Releases from 11.2 onward, showing the lifetime support stages (Premier, Extended) and the Error Correction windows for each release. Note, not all releases are eligible for Extended Support (i.e. 12.2.0.1, 18c).

Figure 1 — Database Release Roadmap

Oracle is mindful of the unprecedented economic and business disruption our customers faced in 2020. We decided to not promote our Database 20c Preview version to General Availability. Instead, we incorporated all of the 20c functionality into the 21c release and made 21c available initially in our Autonomous Database Free Tier so that all can test drive the new features and enhancements for free.

  • For details on the Database Suite Error Correction Policy (incl. Patching end dates and grace periods), see Database, FMW, EM Grid Control, and OCS Software Error Correction Support Policy (Doc ID 209768.1).

    1 Oracle Database Cloud Service, Exadata Cloud Service, and Exadata Cloud@Customer follow the same support life and error correction schedule as on-premises dates unless otherwise noted in Table 1 above (for example, 11.2.0.4 MDS). Also, Extended Support is bundled with these services and does not require additional fees. These services will not be covered under Sustaining Support and should be discontinued at the end of their error Correction dates.

    2 Oracle’s current plan for Oracle Autonomous Database — Shared Exadata Infrastructure, Oracle Autonomous Database — Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure, Autonomous Database on Exadata Cloud@Customer services is to support Long Term Release versions for a similar period of time found for those major releases when deployed on-premises. The intent of this plan is to provide stability of service experience for the thousands of critical database deployments found in Oracle Cloud. Additionally, we will at times make available Innovation Releases as part of the Autonomous Database Cloud Services. Innovation Releases, when provided, will be supported for a shorter period of time as compared to a Long Term Release, similar to what is found for those releases when deployed on-premises. Oracle reserves the right to change this plan with changing business requirements. Any change will take into account that stability is of utmost importance to Oracle’s many thousands of mission critical deployments.
