+## Working with Oracle in Metabase
+
+Starting in v0.20.0, Metabase provides a driver for connecting to Oracle databases. Under the hood, Metabase uses to Oracle's JDBC driver; due to licensing restrictions, we can't
+include ship it as part of Metabase. Luckily, downloading it yourself and making it available to Metabase is straightforward and only takes a few minutes.
+
+### Downloading the Oracle JDBC Driver JAR
+
+You can download the JDBC driver from [Oracle's JDBC driver downloads page](http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/jdbc/default-2280470.html).
+Head to this page, accept the license agreement, and download `ojdbc7.jar`:
+
+![Oracle JDBC Download](../images/oracle_jdbc_download.png)
+
+Before downloading this JAR you may need to sign up for a free account with Oracle.
+
+
+### Adding the Oracle JDBC Driver JAR to the Metabase Plugins Directory
+
+Metabase will automatically make the Oracle driver available if it finds the Oracle JDBC driver JAR in the Metabase plugins directory when it starts up.
+All you need to do is create the directory and move the JAR you just downloaded into it.
+
+By default, the plugins directory is called `plugins`, and lives in the same directory as the Metabase JAR.
+
+For example, if you're running Metabase from a directory called `/app/`, you should move the Oracle JDBC driver JAR to `/app/plugins/`:
+
+```bash
+# example directory structure for running Metabase with Oracle support
+/app/metabase.jar
+/app/plugins/ojdbc7.jar
+```
+
+If you're running Metabase from the Mac App, the plugins directory defaults to `~/Library/Application Support/Metabase/Plugins/`:
+
+```bash
+# example directory structure for running Metabase Mac App with Oracle support
+/Users/camsaul/Library/Application Support/Metabase/Plugins/ojdbc7.jar
+```
+
+Finally, you can choose a custom plugins directory if the default doesn't suit your needs by setting the environment variable `MB_PLUGINS_DIR`.
