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.  

We'd prefer it if you saw us at our best.
