Oracle Database releases are released in version and version_full releases.
The version release is designated in the form major release version.0.0.0.0. The major release version is based on the last two digits of the year in which an Oracle Database version is released for the first time. For example, the Oracle Database version released for the first time in the year 2018 has the major release version of 18, and thus its version release is 18.0.0.0.0.
The version_full release is an update of a version release and is designated based on the major release version, the quarterly release update version (Update), and the quarterly release update revision version (Revision). The version_full releases are categorized by five numeric segments separated by periods as shown in the following example:
First numeral: This numeral indicates the major release version. It also denotes the last two digits of the year in which the Oracle Database version was released for the first time.
Second numeral: This numeral indicates the release update version (Update).
Third numeral: This numeral indicates the release update revision version (Revision).
Fourth numeral: This numeral indicates the increment version. This nomenclature can apply to updates in future releases.
Fifth numeral: This numeral is reserved for future use.
