Oracle 18c: self-driving, self-scaling, self-repairing AND documentation-free (?)

Yesterday Larry Ellison announced Oracle 18c:
After 12c now 18c?
Why 18 and not another number greater 12?
Inside a whitepaper released with the announcment the version 18c is not named at all.

The whitepaper just contains some high level information about the autonomous database:

and some licensing information:
But no real information about this new database 18c.
If this new database works like promised:
Fully automated patching, upgrades, backups, and availability architecture perform all routine database maintenance tasks—without the need for human intervention.
then there is no need for documentation at all...

  2. Thanks!
    Here a quote from mike dietrichs website:
    " This means, Oracle Database 12.2.0.2 will be Oracle 18. And Oracle 12.2.0.3 will be Oracle 19. And so on."

    Let's go for Oracle 100c ;-)
