The fastest, most scalable Oracle AI Database service with cloud automation you control

This image provides a high-level overview of Oracle Exadata Database Service and its business value in three columns.

• The first column, titled "Move as is," shows that customers can lift and shift all Oracle AI Database workloads from on-premises to Exadata Database Service without refactoring applications. The service supports all database features, options, and management packs. You can run tens to thousands of Oracle databases; any workload whether it’s OLTP, in-memory, or operational analytics; converged database, and virtually any development style on a single Exadata cloud environment, making it the ideal database consolidation cloud platform.
• The second column, titled "Exadata Database Service," shows that administrators retain full operational control while simplifying management with built-in automation. A choice of shared or dedicated infrastructure with elastic resource scaling, security, and fast performance for all Oracle AI Database workloads helps you simplify management and reduce costs. Exadata Database Service on Exascale Infrastructure, available in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), runs on pools of shared database–optimized compute. Exadata Database Service on Dedicated Infrastructure is available in the public cloud on Exadata Cloud Infrastructure in OCI and other cloud data centers, or on Exadata Cloud@Customer in your data center.
• The third column, titled "Benefits," lists eight benefits of Exadata Database Service.
  • Fast, predictable performance
  • Lower total cost of ownership
  • Zero-downtime scaling and patching
  • On-demand resource scaling
  • High-density consolidation
  • One-click HA provisioning
  • Extreme availability
  • Strong, built-in security

This image covers Exadata Database Service’s cost-effective pricing, choice of consumption models, and elastic resource scaling.

Exadata Database Service is an automated Oracle AI Database service that enables organizations to run databases with the highest performance, availability, security, and cost-effectiveness. The service subscription has globally consistent pricing, pay-as-you-go compute consumption, and online scaling.

The service offers two subscription models:

• A license-included consumption model includes Oracle Database Enterprise Edition plus all advanced database options and management packs.
• With the bring-your-own-license (BYOL) model, you deploy your existing Oracle Database Enterprise Edition and Database Option licenses on Exadata Cloud Infrastructure, lowering your subscription costs. In addition to the database licenses you bring, the BYOL subscription includes the right to use Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), Diagnostics Pack, Tuning Pack, Data Masking and Subsetting Pack, and Real Application Testing without bringing license entitlements for those database options and management packs.

Exadata Database Service offers fully elastic CPU scaling so you can size your environment for normal workloads, scale up core processors during peak periods, and scale back down as demand returns to normal. You can scale compute resources on demand or automatically with scripts to scale compute based on predetermined criteria.

Same service and control plane across deployments

Exadata Database Service provides a familiar user experience across all deployments, so you can easily and confidently adapt to changing business needs without any learning curve or additional training.
