Oracle Connection

Select Oracle for an Oracle endpoint. The current setup form exposes the common server, database, user name, password and advanced database controls; it does not add an Oracle-only option panel.

Configuration contract

SettingDefaultGuidance
Server NameEmptyEnter the Oracle host or endpoint in the format required by the installed provider.
Database NameEmptyEnter the reviewed database/service identifier used by the provider.
User Name / PasswordEmptySupply a least-privilege Oracle identity. Velox encrypts the saved DB Connection password, but it remains sensitive configuration.
Other parametersEmptyProvider-specific name/value text. Add only reviewed parameters and record why they are required.
Disconnect after useClearedControls whether Velox closes the connection after use instead of retaining it for reuse.
Persistent connectionClearedEnables persistent/pool behaviour. Minimum and maximum connection values default to 0 and require workload-specific testing.
Disable transactionsClearedDisables the normal transaction boundary. Use only where the data-owner-approved design requires it.
Read / write isolationRead CommittedShared isolation selection. Supported UI values are Read Committed, Repeatable Read and Read Uncommitted; actual provider support must be verified.

The SQL Server driver, authentication and certificate-trust controls, MySQL version selector, and ADO/ODBC provider or alias controls are hidden for Oracle. Do not infer Oracle behaviour from those other method pages.

Configure and test

  1. Confirm the Oracle client/provider and process architecture required by the deployment.
  2. Create a DB Connection, select Oracle, and enter the reviewed endpoint and identity.
  3. Add provider parameters only when required by the approved client configuration.
  4. Save and select Test in Designer.
  5. Retest with a DB Definition under the account and host that run Velox services.

A successful connection test does not prove schema resolution, session settings, query compatibility or write permission. Validate representative reads and any intended writes in a non-production environment. If Designer succeeds but the service fails, compare installed clients, environment configuration, network naming and identities on the two hosts.

Use common Connection properties and Check Usage when modifying a shared endpoint.
