Oracle Database 12c: Cloud computing with multitenant architecture

Pluggable Database

Conclusions

Oracle has come up with something good after a long development period. Besides the many small improvements, the major architecture change toward pluggable and cloud databases opens up many possibilities for use. Whether and to what extent these changes are adopted by the users remains to be seen. After initial reluctance, a widespread move is likely to follow.
