Oracle 18 is moving away from using SID identifiers in their listeners.  We need a way to create data sources that can connect to Oracle databases using the SERVICE_NAME instead.  Can you add this field as an optional data source parameter for the Oracle connections?

Currently the Oracle DBA team added a "SID as a SERVICE" option to work around the issue, and this allows ColdFusion to connect using the SID method.  They tell us this is a temporary fix, and will have to be resolved in the near future.
