How to delete old APEX installations on an autonomous database (Oracle Cloud)

in Database Administration (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

Hey guys,

My databases in the Oracle cloud have grown by a lot lately. I found out that nearly 2/3 of the many GB AWR data connect to old APEX installations with the users APEX_190200 and APEX_200100.

On a non-cloud database I would DROP those users with CASCADE with SYSDBA rights after the successful installation of APEX_200200.

I tried to do the same with the cloud autonomous database ADMIN user, but am blocked with insufficient privileges error message.

Any ideas how to get those users and their many gigabytes out?

Thanks in advance.
