See all analyst quotes
"With Generative AI innovations in Oracle Database 23ai, and specifically with AI Vector Search, Oracle has given customers a great leap forward, providing an all-in-one solution."
"Oracle Database 23ai contains a raft of AI innovations, starting with the general availability of AI Vector Search. Now, the world’s largest enterprises don’t have to move their data to reap the benefits of AI. They can eliminate the complexity and risk of moving their data to a new database and bring full AI capabilities to their data with an upgrade to Oracle Database 23ai."
"Furthering Oracle’s converged database approach, this addition of AI Vector Search delivers real-world benefits such as the avoidance of data silos and management costs typically associated with managing multiple databases—a clear advantage over specialized, stand-alone vector database options."
"By upgrading their existing Oracle Database to 23ai, CIOs gain the ability to have an enterprise-grade GenAI solution without having to spend cycles learning how to operate a separate vector database; moving data to that separate vector database, and then trying to maintain data consistency between multiple data stores."
What’s included in Oracle Database 23ai Free?
The complete developer functionality of Oracle’s converged database, plus the following:
AI Vector Search
Develop apps with AI Vector Search, leverage vector data types, indexes, and SQL operators in Oracle Database to store and query semantic content from diverse unstructured data, while supporting Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) for generating responses to natural language queries.
JSON Relational Duality
Build apps in either relational or JSON paradigms with a single source of truth and benefit from the strengths of both—relational and document models. Data is stored once but can be accessed, written, and modified with either approach.
JavaScript stored procedures
Create high performance, data-driven apps by writing JavaScript stored procedures (powered by GraalVM) and importing existing JavaScript libraries into the database. Minimize round trips to the database by executing business logic directly in the data tier.
JSON Schemas
Use industry-standard JSON Schemas to ensure only valid data is inserted into a JSON column.
Property Graphs
Find and analyze relationships, predict trends, and discover lightning-fast insights using database-native property graphs views. Use new SQL-standard property graph queries to run graph analytics on top of relational and JSON data.
Data use case domains
Bring domain knowledge closer to the data by describing the intended use of data centrally and ensuring data is handled consistently across applications.
Schema annotations
Annotate common data model attributes for tables, columns, views, indexes, and more, providing a central, lightweight, declarative facility to register and exchange usage properties across apps.
