Rdb 7.4.1.0 was released today.

https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/related/rdb-doc.html

Alpha and IA64. What will be the first version on x86 is still to be seen.

 From the email notification:

"Oracle Rdb 7.4.1.0 shipped on August 10, 2020. Some of the features 
included in this release have been under development for several years.

A full description of all the new features and enhancements made in this 
release and the problems fixed can be found in the release notes. A summary 
of those features and fixes is included in the attached readme.

With Oracle Rdb 7.4.1.0 you will be able to continue in Premier Support 
past the dates published for 7.3. Details of the 7.4 support dates will be 
published in the Oracle Lifetime Support Policies document (see 
http://www.oracle.com/us/support/library/lifetime-support-technology-069183.pdf 
) in early September."
