Hi all I am a new DBA doing a practicum with a company. I was told to do patches and I searched on their oracle support account for one and found they have over a 100 they have not applied, apparently they have not done patching in over a year, do i apply all or a select few and in what order from the oldest to the most recent or vice versa Thank you

Apply the latest PSU it contains the most useful patches.
Apply the other ones ONLY if you have a problem related to it and ONLY if Oracle support tells you to do so.
