Node.js driver for Oracle Database
This is the driver that allows folks using Node.js to tap into Oracle Database – a very powerful combination. Since starting at Oracle, I’ve focused more on this project than any other. In fact, most of the posts in this blog involve this driver in one way or another.
Now the driver is sporting a new JavaScript layer! This new layer will allow JavaScript to be used over C where it’s more advantageous to do so. Additionally, the new layer will help make it easier for folks in the JavaScript community to contribute to the project without having to know C.
This first release of the JavaScript layer adds connection request queueing (no more ORA-24418: Cannot open further sessions!) and we have some pretty cool features planned for future releases.
