Update of Oracle Instant Client and SQLPlus Customers using Oracle should note that the Oracle Instant Client packaged with Liquibase Enterprise has been updated from 12c to 19c in Release 8.6. Customers using a SQLPlus native executor hosted outside the Liquibase Enterprise installation should consider updating their client to a 19c version as new versions of Oracle may not be compatible with the 12c client.

Ephemeral Packaging for Oracle DatabasesFor Oracle databases, two new package methods have been introduced to allow teams to create a temporary, or ephemeral, Ref DB for packaging changes. The functionality uses Oracle’s multi-tenant technology and requires that the first database in the pipeline be a pluggable database (PDB). A clone or copy is created of this database is created during the packaging operation. Scripts eligible for packaging are applied to the copied database and the database copy is destroyed at the end of the packaging operation. There are options to create the ephemeral database in the same CDB container as the first database in the pipeline (using the BackupRestoreOracleEphemeralInternalPdb packageMethod) or to create the copy in a second, or external CDB container (using the BackupRestoreOracleEphemeralExternalPdb packageMethod.)

Version 0 Rollback Support for PostgreSQL Stored Logic ScriptsLiquibase Enterprise now supports rollback to Version 0 of PostgreSQL stored logic scripts. Liquibase now tracks the initial content, or Version 0, of a PostgresSQL stored logic script prior to any modifications. This allows the Liquibase rollback to automatically return the object to its initial state or drop any newly created objects. Note this change only applies to PostgresSQL as Version 0 support already existed for Oracle, SQLServer, and DB2 databases.
