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 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:
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.
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.
Exadata Database Service provides a familiar user experience and set of processes everywhere, using the same cloud control plane across all deployment options.
In the public cloud, Exadata Database Service is available in all OCI regions and select Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud regions. There are no upfront costs or long-term commitments, with only a 48-hour minimum required. It’s available in Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud data centers on a dedicated Exadata cloud and in OCI on a shared Exascale infrastructure or dedicated Exadata Cloud Infrastructure.
Exadata Database Service can be deployed on a private, hybrid cloud in your data center on Exadata Cloud@Customer or OCI Dedicated Region to help you address application dependency considerations as well as data residency and security requirements. These deployments have a four-year infrastructure term commitment.
It’s the same service and the same cloud control plane in OCI, multicloud, hybrid cloud, and dedicated cloud environments.
Exadata Database Service on Exascale Infrastructure delivers extreme performance, reliability, availability, and security for database workloads of any type and scale. Built on pools of shared database-optimized compute and storage resources, it lets organizations of any size minimize costs with small configurations, granular elastic scaling, and pay-per-use economics.
Exadata Database Service on Exascale Infrastructure is easy to set up and is simple and powerful for all database workloads at any scale.
Exascale Infrastructure uses shared pools of compute and storage resources; simply configure a Virtual Machine (VM) Cluster and an Exascale Database Storage Vault. You can get started with as few as 8 ECPUs per VM and as little as 300 GB of Exascale Vault capacity.
Elastically scale ECPUs online to meet workload demand, and scale Exascale Vault capacity online up to 100 TB.
With Exadata Database Service on Exascale Infrastructure is incredibly agile. You can create and run one or more databases and all database workloads in the same environment. In addition, running business and mission-critical production databases, you can create instant, space-efficient thin clones to improve developer productivity. Accelerate innovation by giving developers all the performance and availability characteristics of Exadata with economical Exascale thin clones.
The consumption of database server licenses running on dedicated infrastructure can be scaled up or down at any time without incurring downtime, enabling users to both optimize performance and reduce costs.
Exadata Cloud Infrastructure and Exadata Cloud@Customer are customer-dedicated environments fully managed by Oracle.
Powerful cloud automation enables customers to manage the system with minimal effort. Customers can apply operating system and database updates on their preferred schedule.
Choose the level of database automation by workload, running Exadata Database Service, Autonomous Database, or both on the same Exadata cloud environment.
The starting configuration includes two Exadata Database Servers and three Exadata Storage Servers. You can scale out with up to 32 database servers and 64 storage servers in a single Exadata Cloud Infrastructure or Exadata Cloud@Customer environment.
You can independently scale database and storage servers online without downtime or migration hassle.
Deliver predictable performance at scale and maintain fine-grained control over resource allocation. Elastically scale database resources and only pay for the cores you use.
Common types of scale-out include the following:
Consumption of database server licenses running on dedicated infrastructure can be scaled up or down at any time without incurring downtime, enabling users to both optimize performance and reduce costs.
Oracle Database is a converged database that provides best-of-breed support for modern data types and workloads. Exadata Database Service allows you to support many diverse projects and run multiple database versions—including Oracle Database 23ai—on a single platform, significantly reducing complexity and management overhead while minimizing risk.
This image shows a converged data strategy using Oracle Database to centralize diverse data and workload types via multiple types of analytics within an Oracle Database engine. Consolidate all your Oracle Databases on Exadata Database Service to simplify enterprise data management, deliver superior quality of service across databases, and lower costs.
Oracle’s converged, multimodel database engine lets you store and query many types of data, including relational, document, AI vectors, and text, using the same database technology and supporting OLTP, in-memory, analytics, and mixed workloads.
Oracle Database supports machine learning, blockchain, graph, spatial, JSON, REST, events, editions, and IoT streaming as part of the core database at no additional cost.
You can run Exadata Database Service in the public cloud on Exascale Infrastructure or Exadata Cloud Infrastructure or in your data center on Exadata Cloud@Customer or an OCI Dedicated Region.
Oracle’s converged database engine lets you store and query many types of data, including AI vectors, using the same database technology. It natively supports OLTP, analytics, semantic search, application development, and mixed workloads.
Exadata Database Service is fully compatible with all Oracle Database and Exadata deployments, making it easy to migrate applications to the cloud without the time, resources, and risk associated with refactoring. Oracle Zero Downtime Migration provides an automated migration workflow with your choice of methods so you can pick the best approach for each application.
This image shows how full compatibility with on-premises deployments and zero downtime migration can simplify your move to the cloud.
Exadata Database Service supports all Oracle Database Enterprise Edition features, advanced database options, and management packs. The platform is fully compatible across on-premises and cloud deployments, providing the following benefits:
Oracle Zero Downtime Migration simplifies migration with no extra costs or fees, enabling you to migrate with zero downtime, minimal impact on production environments, and with the efficiency of pre- and post-migration validation.
You have a choice of migration methods for a best-fit approach by workload:
