Description: # python-oracledb
        
        python-oracledb is a [Python programming language][python] extension module
        allowing Python programs to connect to [Oracle Database][oracledb].  It is the
        renamed, new major release of the popular cx_Oracle driver.
        
        The module conforms to the [Python Database API 2.0 specification][pep249] with
        a considerable number of additions and a couple of minor exclusions, see the
        [feature list][features].
        
        Synchronous and [concurrent][concurrent] coding styles are supported.
        
        ## Installation
        
        Run `python -m pip install oracledb`
        
        See [python-oracledb Installation][installation].
        
        ## Dependencies and Interoperability
        
        - Python versions 3.8 through 3.13.
        
          Prebuilt packages are available for these Python versions on Windows, on
          macOS and on Linux.
        
          Source code is also available.
        
        - Oracle Client libraries are *optional*.
        
          **Thin mode**: By default python-oracledb runs in a 'Thin' mode which
          connects directly to Oracle Database.
        
          **Thick mode**: Some advanced Oracle Database functionality is currently only
          available when optional Oracle Client libraries are loaded by
          python-oracledb.  Libraries are available in the free [Oracle Instant
          Client][instantclient] packages. Python-oracledb can use Oracle Client
          libraries 11.2 through 21c.
        
        - Oracle Database
        
          **Thin mode**: Oracle Database 12.1 (or later) is required.
        
          **Thick mode**: Oracle Database 11.2 (or later) is required, depending on the
          Oracle Client library version.  Oracle Database's standard client-server
          version interoperability allows connection to both older and newer
          databases. For example when python-oracledb uses Oracle Client 19c libraries,
          then it can connect to Oracle Database 11.2 or later.
        
        ## Documentation
        
        See the [python-oracledb Documentation][documentation] and [Release
        Notes][relnotes].
        
        ## Samples
        
        Examples can be found in the [/samples][samples] directory and the
