db_keep_cache_size in depreciated in oracle 12c

I'm trying to keep/pin frequently accessed table in buffer, but i see the db_keep_cache_size parameter is deprecated in 12c. is there any alternative way to perform same on 12c?
my oracle version: Oracle Database 12c Enterprise Edition Release 12.1.0.2.0 - 64bit.
I tried below steps in 12c and it executed without any error, but not sure it will have any impact on 12c.
show parameter keep;
alter system set db_keep_cache_size=1M scope=both;
show parameter keep;
SELECT SEGMENT_NAME, BUFFER_POOL from dba_segments where SEGMENT_NAME='cust_table' and owner='services';
alter TABLE services.cust_table storage (buffer_pool keep);
Could someone please suggest, whether above steps are valid in 12c?
Thanks in advance.

SonarQube. What oracle DB component can be removed

We use Oracle DB as sonarqube database and found out that list of oracle components installed. What components can be safely removed?
List of components:
COMP_ID COMP_NAME
APEX Oracle Application Express
EM Oracle Enterprise Manager
ORDIM Oracle Multimedia
XDB Oracle XML Database
CONTEXT Oracle Text
EXF Oracle Expression Filter
RUL Oracle Rules Manager
OWM Oracle Workspace Manager
CATALOG Oracle Database Catalog Views
CATPROC Oracle Database Packages and Types
JAVAVM JServer JAVA Virtual Machine
XML Oracle XDK
CATJAVA Oracle Database Java Packages
SonarQube didn't install one or many Oracle components. They can be installed during the creation process of the database or after (but always explicitly).
SonarQube works perfectly with the minimum and mandatory Oracle components :
Oracle Database Catalog
Oracle Database packages and Types
Oracle XML Database

Oracle developer suite 6i and Oracle XE database.

I am new to Oracle forms and database. I installed oracle developer suite 6i and XE database on windows machine. Using Sql developer, I am able to connect to the database and execute all the query against HR schema. When using the PLUS80w.exe from developer suite to connect, I get incorrect user and password error. Can I some one tell what could be the possible error?
P.S. Both the tnsnames.ora are identical.

Can Oracle forms 11g connect to DB2 or SQL Server?

I just want to know whether Oracle forms 11g supports other databases like DB2, SQL Server etc.
Also does Oracle forms 11g supports Oracle database 9i or 10g apart from 11g?
According to the Oracle middleware certification spreadsheet (once you have opened the spreadsheet, click "Current System (Server and Client) Certification" and then search for Oracle Forms) you will see that Oracle Forms is certified against the following database versions:
Oracle 10.2.0.4+
Oracle 11.1.0.7+
Oracle 11.2.0.1+
Oracle Forms may work with earlier versions than what have been listed but if you run into problems you won't be able to get support from Oracle.
Oracle Forms 11g can be used against non-oracle datasources. To get started look in the Forms help, Google, and the Oracle Forms forum on OTN for transactional triggers.
However my personal opinion is whilst Oracle Forms is a great tool with Oracle Database you should seriously think about whether it is the right tool for working with other datasources.
