Create an Oracle data source using Wallet and OCI

Last modified: 15 May 2024

PyCharm uses JDBC drivers to connect to the Oracle server through the TNS protocol. The following driver modes are available:

  • In Thin mode, the JDBC driver always connects to the TNS listener. In this mode, various versions of the JDBC driver can be used.

  • In OCI mode, the JDBC driver uses native libraries. In this case, the JDBC driver's version must be the same as the version of these native libraries.

Oracle Wallet is a set of files that stores all the user credentials such as certificates, certificate requests, and private keys. You can create a wallet by using the Oracle tooling or ask your Oracle server administrator to generate the wallet. For more information about wallets, refer to Creating and Managing Oracle Wallet and Download Client Credentials (Wallets) at docs.oracle.com.
