Provisioning Resources on Autonomous AI Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure

To get started with Autonomous AI Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure, create the dedicated resources that provide the infrastructure, compute, container database, and user database for your deployment.

Each resource depends on the resource created before it. You must create an Exadata Infrastructure resource before you create an Autonomous Exadata VM Cluster. You must create an Autonomous Exadata VM Cluster before you create an Autonomous Container Database. You must create an Autonomous Container Database before you create an Autonomous AI Database.

You can create multiple Autonomous Exadata VM Clusters on an Exadata Infrastructure resource, multiple Autonomous Container Databases in an Autonomous Exadata VM Cluster, and multiple Autonomous AI Databases in an Autonomous Container Database, subject to service limits and resource availability.

Before provisioning dedicated resources, ensure that you have:

An Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) tenancy with permissions to create Autonomous AI Database resources.
Appropriate IAM policies to create and manage Exadata Infrastructure, Autonomous Exadata VM Clusters, Autonomous Container Databases, and Autonomous AI Databases.
A Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) and required networking components, if applicable.
Service limits that support the resources you plan to create.

See the following table for prerequisites and provisioning instructions.

Resource	Required IAM Policies	Additional Prerequisites	Provisioning Instructions
Exadata Infrastructure	`manage cloud-exadata-infrastructures` `use vnic` `use subnet`		Create an Exadata Infrastructure Resource If you are a customer with a Multicloud subscription, refer to the instructions in Create an Exadata Infrastructure in AWS or Create an Exadata Infrastructure in Azure, depending on your Multicloud deployment.
Autonomous Exadata VM Cluster	Oracle Public Cloud and Multicloud `manage cloud-autonomous-vmclusters` `use cloud-exadata-infrastructures` Exadata Cloud@Customer `manage autonomous-vmclusters` `use exadata-infrastructures`	For Oracle Public Cloud deployments, also see Zero Trust Packet Routing (ZPR) Policy Requirements.	Create an Autonomous Exadata VM Cluster If you are a customer with an AWS Multicloud subscription, refer to the instructions in Create an Autonomous VM Cluster (AVMC) in AWS.
Autonomous Container Database	Oracle Public Cloud and Multicloud `manage autonomous-container-databases` `use cloud-exadata-infrastructures` `use cloud-autonomous-vmclusters` Exadata Cloud@Customer `manage autonomous-container-databases` `use exadata-infrastructures` `use autonomous-vmclusters` `use backup-destinations`	To create one Autonomous Container Database, you need at least: 8 ECPUs or 2 OCPUs per node 50GB local storage per node	Create an Autonomous Container Database
Autonomous AI Database	`manage autonomous-databases` `read autonomous-container-databases`		Create an Autonomous AI Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure

Note: For Oracle Public Cloud and Exadata Cloud@Customer deployments, you can refer to the following use cases for a demonstration of the above discussed steps with an example:
