IvorySQL (Oracle)
Run “Oracle-Compatible” PostgreSQL cluster with the IvorySQL Kernel open sourced by HighGo
Module:
Pigsty allows you to create PostgreSQL clusters with the IvorySQL kernel, which is a PostgreSQL fork that is compatible with Oracle SQL dialects.
Get Started
The following parameters need to be configured for the IvorySQL database cluster:
#----------------------------------#
# Ivory SQL Configuration
#----------------------------------#
node_repo_modules: local,node,pgsql,ivory # add ivorysql upstream repo
pg_mode: ivory # IvorySQL Oracle Compatible Mode
pg_packages: [ 'ivorysql patroni pgbouncer pgbackrest pg_exporter pgbadger vip-manager' ]
pg_libs: 'liboracle_parser, pg_stat_statements, auto_explain'
pg_extensions: [ ] # do not install any vanilla postgresql extensions
Client Access
IvorySQL 3 is equivalent to PostgreSQL 16, you can connect to the IvorySQL cluster using any PostgreSQL compatible client tools.
Installation
If you have the Internet access, you can install the IvorySQL software package online by setting the following parameters:
node_repo_modules: local,node,pgsql,ivory
node_packages: [ ivorysql ]
And install the IvorySQL kernel and related software packages by running the following command:
./node.yml -t node_repo,node_pkg
Extensions
Most of the PGSQL modules’ extension (non-SQL classes) cannot be used directly on the IvorySQL kernel. If you need to use them, you need to recompile and install from source code for the new kernel.
Currently, the IvorySQL kernel comes with the following 101 extension plugins:
