Oracle Database@AWS

Concept

With Oracle Database@AWS, Oracle’s database services run directly inside AWS data centers. Inside is Oracle Exadata hardware, on which you can run Exadata Database Service or Autonomous Database. The databases are run and looked after by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). At the same time, apps running on AWS services such as EC2 can connect to these databases over a short distance. Buying and billing are done through AWS Marketplace.

Simple example

A famous brand’s own shop inside a shopping mall — the mall belongs to AWS, but the shop is run by Oracle.

Why it’s needed

Companies whose apps depend on Oracle databases can keep the database next to other AWS services without changing anything.

Where it’s used

Bringing older Oracle-based systems of large banks or enterprises to the cloud.

Azure equivalent
