Features
Oracle Live SQL is a free, browser-based workspace that lets you write, run, and share Oracle Database SQL and PL/SQL without installing any local software.
Oracle Live SQL is a cloud playground where you execute Oracle Database SQL and PL/SQL from any browser, removing the need to install Oracle locally.
A multi-tenant Oracle Database instance powers each user session. Your SQL scripts run in an isolated schema that resets after inactivity, ensuring consistent, safe experiments.
Use it for rapid prototyping, learning Oracle syntax, validating answers on forums, or demonstrating bugs without provisioning on-prem hardware.
It offers DDL/DML execution, code snippets, schema browsing, script sharing, tutorials, and result downloads—all inside a web UI.
Log in with your Oracle account, click “SQL Worksheet,” paste your SQL, and press the Run button or hit Ctrl+Enter to execute.
CREATE TABLE demo (id NUMBER, name VARCHAR2(50));
INSERT INTO demo VALUES (1,'Galaxy');
SELECT * FROM demo;
Teachers assign Live SQL labs, consultants reproduce customer issues, and developers benchmark functions before moving code to production.
Keep scripts idempotent, drop objects after use, avoid storing sensitive data, and version control longer examples in Git plus the Live SQL URL.
Live SQL excels at quick, disposable Oracle tests in a browser, while Galaxy delivers a full-featured desktop SQL IDE with AI copilot, collaboration, and secure workspace-level controls for production databases.
Yes. Click “Save and Share” to generate a public URL, or download results as CSV for offline analysis or import into Galaxy.
Relying on session persistence, ignoring quota limits, and forgetting to set session parameters lead to confusing errors—always assume a fresh schema.
Oracle Live SQL removes installation friction, letting data engineers validate Oracle SQL in seconds. Rapid feedback accelerates schema design, query optimization, and learning. In distributed teams, its shareable script URLs keep everyone on the same example, preventing the “works on my machine” problem. Because the environment mirrors Oracle Database 23c features, engineers can safely experiment with new syntax before production upgrades.
Yes. You only need an Oracle Single Sign-On account; usage is free of charge.
No. Oracle Live SQL does not expose direct JDBC/SQL*Net endpoints. Instead, copy your validated SQL into Galaxy once you connect Galaxy to your own Oracle instance.
Absolutely. You can compile packages, functions, and test new 23c syntax like JSON Relational Duality views.
Use the “Save and Share” button for a public URL or download CSV for import into Galaxy Collections.
