Standard vs. Unified Database Auditing
Requirement:
- We want to enable the auditing for specific operations for our 19c on-prem & RDS Oracle Instances where audit records must be written to the operating system files (prefrably in XML format).
What have we found as of now:
- We found that with standard auditing, audit records can be stored in the database audit trail or in operating system files of the instance hosting Oracle instance.
- We tested this by setting AUDIT_TRAIL = "XML, EXTENDED" to capture audit records to OS files in XML format.
- But we found a Oracle doc. that talk about deprecation of Traditional Auditing, is this true ?
