I would like to learn more about Oracle (I am more of an SQL Server developer). I am thinking about downloading the Docker image: https://hub.docker.com/_/oracle-database-enterprise-edition?tab=reviews
I am a developer and this is strictly for learning purposes. I have read lots of other similar questions on here like this one: Is Oracle free to download? (dated 2013), however they are many years old. One of the answers in the question I have posted a link to says: "strictly self-educational purposes".
The reason I am concerned is because before downloading the image you have to supply a company name i.e. it is a mandatory field. There is no company because this is strictly for learning purposes and the reviewed comments on the Docker webpage are from "verified purchasers". I was thinking about downloading the express edition but some of the features I want to learn about are not available with the express edition.
Can I use the EE image for learning purposes?

Try downloading the official (example?) Docker image from Oracle.
Oracle has put many things on GitHub. Docker images are one of them.

Licensing questions are off topic for this site. But (AFAIK), for educational purpose only, you can use EE for free.
