Introduction

• OCI helps in moving from a traditional based CAPEX model to OPEX based culture.
• OCI also supports Cloud@Customer which can run behind company’s firewall and solves data sovereignty requirements.
• OCI ADB is self-driving, self-securing and self-repairing fully managed database environment available on cloud as well as on-premises.
• Four distinct types of workloads are available,
  • Autonomous Transaction Processing (ATP)
  • Autonomous Data Warehouse (ADP)
  • Application Express (APEX)
  • Autonomous JSON Database (AJD)
• Scale the number of CPU cores or the storage capacity of the database at any time without impacting the availability or performance of the database system.
• ML models and algorithms runs inside Oracle ADB
• All data in ADB is encrypted.
• Security at both rest and in motion. All connections use certificate-based authentication over SSL.
• ADB provides network Access Control List (ACL), to be able to configure allowed IP addresses and reject all other.
• Also provides access through private endpoints thus allowing accessing only from inside a VCN.
• Customers can create ADB using,
  • CLI
  • OCI Console
  • SDK
  • Terraform
• ADB is built on OCI Exadata infrastructure.
• Each ADB database is an independent pluggable database (PDB), to which the customer doesn’t have the host access.
• Exadata machine is combination of hardware and software optimized to run oracle database.
• Oracle ADW is designed to run data warehousing, data marts, data lakes, analytics and ML workloads.
