It’s been a productive year since we announced Oracle Database@AWS availability at AWS re:Invent 2024. After rigorous testing with launch customers and partners, the offering became generally available (GA) in July 2025, marking a significant milestone in the collaboration between Oracle and Amazon Web Services (AWS). As part of the GA announcement, Oracle and AWS revealed joint plans to expand Oracle Database@AWS to 20 more AWS Regions worldwide. 

Oracle Database@AWS runs Oracle AI Database services, managed by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) within AWS – giving customers a simplified path to migrate Oracle Exadata workloads to the cloud with minimal changes, while maintaining full feature availability and architecture compatibility. It enables customers to combine information managed by Oracle AI Database with advanced cloud and AI services from AWS, including Amazon Bedrock. Applications can benefit from high performance when using the latest Oracle Exadata hardware and low-latency network connectivity between Oracle databases and applications running on AWS. Oracle Database@AWS includes zero-ETL (extract, transform, and load) integration to AWS Analytics, which removes the need to build and manage complex data pipelines, simplifying data integration. Customers can easily leverage the latest Oracle Exadata infrastructure and Oracle AI Database services. With Oracle Database@AWS, customers benefit from a unified experience for purchasing, management, operations, and support.

In the AI era, enterprise data is the foundation for innovation. Oracle Database@AWS unlocks the value of business data, empowers organizations to build AI agents and intelligent applications to drive operational efficiencies and accelerate innovation. Many customers are already taking advantage of these foundational innovations.

Customer choice and flexibility

Oracle Database@AWS offers Oracle Exadata Database Service, Oracle Autonomous AI Database, and the newly announced Oracle Autonomous AI Lakehouse – all running on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure. It connects to Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) via an Oracle Database Network. It offers automatic backup with flexibility to store backup data in Amazon S3, Oracle Zero Data Loss Autonomous Recovery Service, or Oracle Object Storage. And Oracle automations further enable Oracle Data Guard and Oracle Active Data Guard across Availability Zones or Regions to address customers’ high resiliency requirements using the proven Oracle Maximum Availability Architecture (MAA).

We’ve continued working hard on behalf of our customers and have released a variety of innovative solutions, notably:

  • Simplified management and operations. Customers can automate and manage their database infrastructure using infrastructure-as-code through the CLI, SDKs, APIs, AWS CloudFormation, or Hashicorp AWS Terraform Provider. 
  • Data protection. With Oracle Zero Data Loss Autonomous Recovery Service, customers can utilize automated, continuous protection with immutability and rapid recovery of their Oracle AI Database estates. Customers using Oracle Zero Data Loss Recovery Appliance on-premises can now take advantage of the same capabilities when migrating their Oracle Databases to the cloud.
  • Integrated experience. Oracle Database@AWS is now integrated with AWS Key Management Service (KMS). Thousands of AWS customers use KMS to create and control keys used to encrypt and sign data. KMS provides robust key management and control through central policies and granular access, comprehensive logging and auditing via AWS CloudTrail, and automatic key rotation for enhanced security. With this integration, customers can now use KMS to encrypt Oracle Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) master keys, apply consistent procedures to manage data encryption keys, and meet their security and compliance requirements.
  • Flexible procurement. Customers can procure Oracle Database@AWS using private offers directly through the AWS Marketplace. They can also purchase Oracle AI Database services through a trusted channel partner using an AWS Marketplace Channel Partner Private Offer (CPPO). Partners can now offer flexible pricing and customize contract terms, bundle additional services, and maintain direct billing relationships with their customers.
