Django supports Oracle Database Server versions 11.1 and higher. Version 4.3.1 or higher of the cx_Oracle (http://cx-oracle.sourceforge.net/) Python driver is required, although we recommend version 5.1.3 or later as these versions support Python 3.
Note that due to a Unicode-corruption bug in cx_Oracle 5.0, that version of the driver should not be used with Django; cx_Oracle 5.0.1 resolved this issue, so if you'd like to use a more recent cx_Oracle, use version 5.0.1.
