If you are using Azure WebApp on Windows, please refer to the MSDN offical blog Access Oracle Databases from Azure Web Apps using OCI8 drivers with PHP to know how to do.

Otherwise, you can refer to my answer for the other SO thread Enable PHP Extension (php_odbc.dll) on Azure to enable the php_odbc extension, and then follow the document Connecting to Oracle from PHP using ODBC Driver for Oracle to connect Oracle using ODBC in PHP.

If you are using Azure WebApp on Linux, the document above for connecting Oracle using ODBC in PHP also be suitable for Linux.

Or you need to refer to the offical document Configure a custom Linux container for Azure App Service to install pecl via add the command RUN apt install php-pear on Ubuntu image (because the default Alpine image does not have the pecl package), then to use pecl install oci8 via command pecl install oci8. These are all configured in the Dockerfile.

My recommended solution is to follow the MSDN blog I mentioned above to install on Azure WebApp on Windows, it's so easy.
