Good morning Kwangho,

Please refer to the following page Advanced database support for IBM Business Automation Workflow on distributed platforms. 

As you can see, Oracle19c is compatible with BAW from at least version 19.0.0.3 to BAW version 24.0.0.0. 

Hi Martin

Many thanks for this information.

Oracle 19c, the latest Long Term Release of Oracle's database management system, is widely recognized for its advanced features, enhanced performance, and robust security measures. When integrating Oracle 19c with IBM Business Automation Workflow (BAW), understanding compatibility is crucial for a seamless operation.

BAW, a comprehensive platform that combines business process management and case management capabilities, relies heavily on database systems like Oracle to store and manage workflow data. Oracle 19c is compatible with BAW, but there are specific considerations to ensure optimal performance.

Firstly, it's essential to use the correct version of Oracle 19c that aligns with BAW's supported environments. IBM regularly updates its compatibility matrix, so checking the latest documentation for supported Oracle versions is recommended. Secondly, proper configuration of Oracle 19c is necessary to meet BAW's performance and security requirements. This includes configuring tablespaces, tuning parameters, and ensuring that Oracle's Advanced Queuing (AQ) is correctly set up, as BAW often utilizes AQ for event management.

Furthermore, both Oracle and BAW should be updated with the latest patches to address any potential security vulnerabilities or compatibility issues. Testing in a controlled environment before deploying into production is also advisable to mitigate any unforeseen issues.

In summary, Oracle 19c is compatible with IBM BAW, provided that careful attention is paid to version compatibility, configuration, and ongoing maintenance.
