Course Outline
1. Introduction and What's New in Oracle Database 23ai
- Overview of the release, its market positioning, and the developer-centric roadmap.
- High-level exploration of AI Vector Search, JSON/relational duality, and async drivers.
- How 23ai transforms typical developer workflows and application patterns.
2. Getting Hands-on: Environment and Tools (Lab)
- Installing and configuring Oracle Database 23ai Free for lab exercises.
- Setting up JDK, IDEs, and client drivers (JDBC, R2DBC where applicable).
- Establishing the first connection, executing simple queries, and scaffolding a sample project.
3. JSON Relational Duality and New Data Types (Lab)
- Utilizing the enhanced JSON data type and JSON collections within application code.
- Understanding duality patterns: when to choose relational versus JSON approaches.
- Examples: storing, querying, and updating JSON objects from Java/Quarkus applications.
4. AI Vector Search and Developer Use Cases (Lab)
- Introduction to AI Vector Search, including vector data types and vector indexes.
- Building a small semantic-search example: generating embeddings, storing data, and performing similarity queries.
- Integrating Vector Search with application code and libraries (conceptual discussion of LangChain/LlamaIndex examples).
5. Asynchronous Programming, Pipelining, and Performance Patterns
- Understanding driver-level pipelining and async request patterns for JDBC, R2DBC, and other drivers.
- Exploring client-side patterns (reactive streams, Java virtual threads) and their impact on the server.
- Practical lab: implementing pipelined calls and measuring throughput improvements.
6. SQL, PL/SQL Enhancements, and Security Controls
- New SQL/PLSQL language features relevant to developers (e.g., schema annotations, direct joins in updates, new Boolean type).
- Overview of SQL Firewall and how it enhances runtime security for executed SQL.
- Hands-on: migrating a small procedure to use new language features and testing SQL Firewall behavior in a controlled lab.
7. Testing, Debugging, and Deployment Best Practices (Lab)
- Unit testing database logic, generating representative test data, and evaluating behavior with new features.
- Packaging and deploying developer apps that utilize 23ai features to test environments.
- Checklist: performance tuning, compatibility considerations, and next steps for production readiness.
