Updates to the Deployment Suite for Oracle

  • Article

Redgate has added new capabilities to the Deployment Suite for Oracle, so it now supports automated migrations-based and state-based Oracle deployments on both Linux and Windows. They've introduced Redgate Change Control, a new capability for understanding development changes, generating migration scripts for version control, and getting precise control over the migration path during automated deployments. Our Schema Compare and Data Compare for Oracle command line tools have been extended to Linux as well as Windows, and we’ve added static code analysis that encourages teams to follow good coding practices on Windows or Linux.

Question of the Day

Missing the Jaro Winkler Distance

I upgraded a SQL Server 2019 instance to SQL Server 2025. I wanted to test the fuzzy string search functions. I run this code: 

SELECT JARO_WINKLER_DISTANCE('tim', 'tom')
I get this error message:
Msg 195, Level 15, State 10, Line 1 'JARO_WINKLER_DISTANCE' is not a recognized built-in function name.
What is wrong?
