Oracle account can be dynamic for creating CDC instance and CDC datastore

Problem statement/pain points:

Now it needs a persistent static password for the oracle account when create CDC instance and CDC datestore and the password can change, otherwise the CDC instance and CDC datastore will not work if the password changes.

And as our bank(HSBC) standard, the Oracle account password needs be dynamic and auto changes during every some time control by a password tool.

Static password doesn’t match our bank account password controlling standard.

State your current workaround(s):

Need to go an additional special process to get an exception approval to get the static password of the oracle account.

State any proposed solution(s):

The oracle account password can be dynamic.

State the benefits/value this idea has:

If the oracle account password can be dynamic. Then it will be more safe for protecting our database date.

State of users impacted and how often are they impacted:

It is impacting our bank to creating CDC instance and CDC datastore.

It impacts our bank once we need to create CDC instance and CDC datastore.
