RussianQuestion
Oracle has a concept call "Oracle Streams" which is extensively documented. Does this have any relation to the "Stream Class". My assumption is no, and that they're entirely distinct but disambiguation would really help here.
Solution
Oracle Streams is (was*) a built-in framework in Oracle databases that is used for logical data replication between databases.
The OCI Stream class is not related to it.
*Oracle 18c is the last release with Oracle Streams. Oracle Streams will be desupported in Oracle 19c. Terminal Release of Oracle Streams. Streams became deprecated in favor of Oracle GoldenGate 5 years ago. Streams was free, no additional cost on top of the database license. GoldenGate must be licensed and it costs as much as Oracle Standard Edition.
