A new major version of SQLAlchemy was released. It comes with a lot of changes so the update probably won't be trivial.
My reason for requesting the update:
SQLAlchemy 2 supports the new python-oracledb driver instead of the old cx_Oracle. The new solution supports "thin mode" which means we don't have to deploy the (proprietary) Oracle Instant Client on our servers. (which we had serious performance-problems with)
We found a workaround to use python-oracledb with SQLAlchemy 1.4 (in this article) but it would of course be nice to have native support.
