Oracle database connection definitions should support a centralized tnsnames.ora file.

Great idea! The benefits of centralized TNS alias management are obvious – it significantly simplifies connection configuration to all databases across the organization. With a single shared tnsnames.ora file, it's easy to update access details for all users and applications at once, without the need for individual changes. I strongly recommend giving this idea serious consideration.

I definitely second to that.

Highly wanted feature - to be able effectively "manage" assignment of Db instance in DV connection via reference of connect descriptor defined in tnsnames.ora (central place for managing connection in our institution) instead of having to "paste" the whole connect string into connection definition. Basically we need same option as we have now when defining Connection Pool object in RPD (where in Data Source Name we refer connect descriptor from tsnames.ora). This is valid for OAS (not sure whether OAC can benefit from this).

Enable API based/programmatic application role creation and configuration in OAC
Currently in OAC, although we can create application roles in the OCI application (e.g Service Administrator), there is no way to programmatically create and configure custom application roles in OAC itself. This has to be done via the console system settings manually in OAC. We are running a large scale OAS > OAC…
Enhancement request for OAC dataset storage management under the 250GB limit
Currently, in Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC), there is a 250GB storage limit for datasets, but there are no practical management features to operate within this limit. This makes day‑to‑day operations very inconvenient.I would like to request the following enhancements for dataset storage management: Configurable storage…
SQL Passthrough (?) option for manual query datasets
I'm not very technical so if this is a non-starter or there's a solid workaround that already exists, please advise. We have users that query SQL data sources directly in other tools, but then would like to bring that query as a dataset to OAS. Ideally they could create the view in the database and reference that object…
