utilized and is being replaced with Oracle Enterprise Manager Express.

It is recommended to utilize GoldenGate to replace the capability Streams
provided.

including multimaster replication, updatable materialized views, hierarchical
materialized views, and deployment templates.
OCFS on Windows
In Oracle Database 12c, Oracle Cluster File System (OCFS) is desupported for
Windows. The support of OCFS (OCFS2) for
Linux will continue and is not affected. http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E16655_01/server.121/e17642/deprecated.htm
Raw Devices
In Oracle Database 12c, raw devices will not be supported therefore you must move
database data files on raw devices to ASM, a supported cluster file system, or NFS. This
also affects and applies to OCR and VOTE

Change Data Capture
