[Oct 11 Update: Added detailed list of supported database options and features]
I'm very pleased to announce that the 11gR2 Database version 11.2.0.1 is certified with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11i version 11.5.10.2.
Existing Apps 11i environments currently running Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2.0), Oracle 10g Release 10 (10.1.0), Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2.0), or Oracle 11g Release 1 (11.1.0) may be upgraded to the 11gR2 Database.
We're still working on the 11gR2 certification with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12. You're welcome to monitor or subscribe to this blog for updates, which I'll post as soon as soon as they're available.

Comments (5)
Hahaha - and to think I just built up new development instances with 11.1.0.7 64-bit and gave them to the testers just earlier this week!
Oh well. One question - you wrote "All other 11gR2 11.2.0.1 database options are supported for use with Apps 11i." I realize AMM is not a 11.2.0.1 specific database option, but I'm unclear if it is supported.
Previously someone asked in your blog comments about if AMM was supported with 11g / E-biz 11i and you said that was still being tested. Is that still the case? I ask because I'm unsure - over the past year I've opened one or two SRs on it and was told it was supported and had planned on putting that into our 11.1.0.7 instance only to then see your comments that it wasn't yet supported.
So... yay or nay?

Steve,
We've been eagerly waiting for this announcement. We can't wait to upgrade our EBS database on 11gR2 and start realizing all the benefits of 11g.
Thanks a lot to your hard working team for making this happen.
See you next week at the OpenWorld.

Hi Steve,
That's very good news. It looks like the certification came a bit faster compared to the previous version combinations.
We will be upgrading our EBS in the February.
I hope by that time, the certification will be available for Solaris, which is our platform.
Thank you for your wonderful blog.

Steven,
Our upgrade plans were derailed when we saw that 11gR2 is not certified with Applications Desktop Integrator (ADI). Are there plans to certify ADI with 11gR2? If so is the certification being actively tested?
Thanks, Dawna.

Hi, Dawna,
Yes, our ADI team is planning on certifying their product on the 11gR2 database. They are still working on their 11gR1 (11.1.0.7) certification of ADI, though. I expect that they'll begin their 11gR2 certification as soon as the 11gR1 certification is completed.
Regards,
Steven
