This is the 11th video of Database programming with Python video tutorial series. In this video we will see how to connect to the Oracle database using the cx_oracle package and extract data using the pandas library.

Steps performed:
================
Create Connection
execute the query using run_sql_query
save the df data onto a csv file

The cx_Oracle is a Python extension module that enables access to Oracle Database. It conforms to the Python database API 2.0 specification with a considerable number of additions and a couple of exclusions.

cx_Oracle 7 has been tested with Python version 2.7, and with versions 3.5 through 3.8. You can use cx_Oracle with Oracle 11.2, 12, 18 and 19 client libraries. Oracle's standard client-server version interoperability allows connection to both older and newer databases. For example Oracle 19c client libraries can connect to Oracle Database 11.2.
