Support for internationalization

As per the Pega document, its mentioned below parameter to configure on the database,

NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS=CHAR scope=both;

However Oracle strongly recommends to configure as NLS_LENGHT_SEMANTIC=byte and not change from bytes to CHAR,

Please advise.

Thanks!

Hello,

I think it depends what language pack you need to support on your application. Keeping bytes will be an issue with special characters like French ones for example I believe. You may end up on situations where the column will be too small for your entry because those special characters will be taking more than one byte.
