Autonomous Database

Learn how to create an Autonomous Container Database and Autonomous Database using the OCI console.

Autonomous Database creation is only available through the OCI Console and OCI CLI. To navigate to the OCI console, complete the following steps:
1. From the Oracle Database@AWS dashboard, select Autonomous VM clusters, and then select Autonomous VM Cluster that you are using.
2. Select the Manage in OCI button which allows you to manage your Autonomous Exadata VM clusters in OCI.
Autonomous Container Database
1. From the OCI console, select the Autonomous Container Database tab, and then select the Create Autonomous Container Database to start the creation process.
2. Follow the steps to Create an Autonomous Container Database.
3. From the Configure database backups section, complete the following substeps:
  1. Select the checkbox to Enable automatic backups.
  2. The Backup destination dropdown list displays available options. These options include:
    
    Amazon S3
    
    Object Storage
    
    Note
    
    Object Storage is Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Object Storage.
    
    Select your Backup destination based on your system's requirement. For more information, see Managed Backup Types and Usage Information.
  3. Review your information, and then select the Create button to complete the creation process.
4. Once your Autonomous Container Database is created, you can view the details of it from the Autonomous Container Database list in OCI.
Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure
1. From the OCI console, select the Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure tab, and then select the Create Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure button to start the creation process.
2. Follow the steps to Create an Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure.
3. Once your Autonomous Database is created in Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure, you can view the details of it from the Autonomous Database list in OCI.
Autonomous Database and Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure creation is only available through the OCI Console and OCI CLI.

You can provision an Autonomous Database in AWS using the Terraform Provider oracle/oci.

Prerequisites

Terraform or OpenTofu installed
Terraform Provider oracle/oci
OCI credentials configured
Provision of an Autonomous VM Cluster

Sample Terraform Configuration

locals {
  # IDs of depending resources
  oci_cloud_autonomous_vm_cluster_ocid  = aws_odb_cloud_autonomous_vm_cluster.this.ocid
  oci_compartment_ocid = regex("(?i:compartmentId=)([^?&/]+)", aws_odb_cloud_autonomous_vm_cluster.this.oci_url)[0]
}

# Protect sensitive input variables 
variable "db_admin_password" {
  description = "Database administrator password"
  type = string
  sensitive = true
}

# Create the Autonomous Container Database
resource "oci_database_autonomous_container_database" "this" {
  cloud_autonomous_vm_cluster_id = local.oci_cloud_autonomous_vm_cluster_ocid
  display_name = "demo-acd-01"
  patch_model  = "RELEASE_UPDATES"
}

# Create the Autonomous Database 
resource "oci_database_autonomous_database" "this" {
  admin_password           = var.db_admin_password
  compartment_id           = local.oci_compartment_ocid
  db_name                  = "demo-adbd-01"
  compute_model            = "ECPU" 
  compute_count            = 2
  data_storage_size_in_tbs = 1
}

For detailed configuration options, see the following Terraform Provider documentation.
