Metabase’s application database as Oracle

Is there any way we can use Oracle also?

But will support Oracle for taking user database, but not sure about whether they will support application database.

@flamber any help?

Oracle can’t be used as the application database: currently Postgres or MySQL/MariaDB. If you want to use Oracle, you will need to fork the Metabase code
