Oracle Cloud Infrastructure 2020 Architect Associate — Question 47

A new Python developer has joined your team and needs to access the Autonomous Database (ADB) data.
How does the developer connect to and interact with ADB from Python? (Choose the best answer.)

Answer options

• A. The Oracle Client and the cx_Oracle interface for Python
• B. You can't use Python with ADB
• C. SQL Developer
• D. JAVA JDK

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the Oracle Client along with the cx_Oracle library is specifically designed to facilitate connections between Python and Oracle databases, including ADB. Option B is incorrect as Python can be used with ADB. Option C is also not suitable since SQL Developer is a GUI tool and not a programming interface for Python. Option D is unrelated as JAVA JDK does not pertain to Python development.
