Know if a record is updated within Oracle?

Solution

From a monitoring perspective (not intended to find previous changes), you have several options including but not limited to triggers, streams, and a column with a default value of sysdate. A trigger will allow you to execute a bit of programming logic (stored directly in the trigger or in an external database object) whenever the record changes (insert, update, delete). Streams can be used to track changes by monitoring the redo logs. One of the easiest may be to add a date column with a default value of sysdate.
