Enable yum package installations in the Oracle Database App Development VM Virtualbox appliance There was a time when installing the latest version of Oracle on a laptop was rather time-consuming and fiddly.These days however, you can spin up an Oracle database playground in minutes using VirtualBox.

The February 2026 release of AutoUpgrade (26.2) is available This is a ground-breaking new release of AutoUpgrade, and the team worked hard to release it last weekend. This means for you that you should renew your AutoUpgrade tools as The February 2026 release of AutoUpgrade (26.2) is available now for download. 1..2..3..4..5..0 ... In case you wonder about this cryptic headline, no worries. Stefan Panek from TK smiled at me yesterday and said: "You've picked one of the best possible MOS note numbers in the new portal!".
