Cross-referenced all 70+ KB files against official Oracle docs. Critical fixes: - ExaCS: storage was flash cache not usable disk (76.8→190.8 TB QR), added X11M, removed X10M - ADB-S: OCPU→ECPU migration, 26ai as default, cross-region RTO 15→10 min - Compute: E5 max 94→126, A2 80→78, added E6/A4/BM shapes, 11 GPU shapes - Storage: Higher Perf IOPS 35K→50K, UHP 450K→300K, File Storage 25K→50K - DBCS: E5.Flex max 94→64, storage 80→150 TB, added 26ai - Networking: FastConnect +400 Gbps, NSG max 120 rules Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
