RE: Pros and cons of Oracle db as Airflow SqlAlchemy backend

Mehmet, for what it’s worth. I don’t know anyone who uses oracledb for an airflow backend, and I’m pretty certain it’s not high on the committer/PMC radar so you might be on your own for any in-depth debugging.

Hi Mehmet,

I tried using Oracle as back-end when I first worked with Airflow and quickly realized it would require significant patching of the Airflow initdb script to ever get to work. Further there are no test cases or support for any issues encountered while using Oracle.

Damian

Subject: Pros and cons of Oracle db as Airflow SqlAlchemy backend

Hello friends,

I have a question about using Oracle db as SqlAlchemy backend.
The Airflow official document recommends Mysql and PostgreSQL for this. But I want to learn about pros and cons of using Oracle db as backend.

*Is there anyone who ever experiences it?*

Thank you,
Best regards,
