Before You Begin with Autonomous AI Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure
Before you begin using Autonomous AI Database, you should be familiar with Oracle Cloud. See Getting Started with Oracle Cloud.
Before you create Autonomous AI Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure deployments:
-
On Oracle Cloud, purchase a subscription. You cannot create an Autonomous AI Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure deployment until you do so.
- Ensure your service limits show at least one supported Exadata system shape available. Before attempting to create the infrastructure resources, request a service limit increase if necessary. See Request Service Limit Increase for guidance.
- Institute access controls to ensure that only authorized personnel and applications have network access to the Autonomous AI Databases created on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure. See Add Users, Assign Policies and Roles for more information.
- In addition, if you are a customer with a Multicloud subscription, see Prerequisites for Oracle Database@AWS for more information.
- To get started with Autonomous AI Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure, the fleet administrator must create the core infrastructure resources listed below:
- First create an Exadata Infrastructure
(EI) resource to host the Autonomous AI Database resources. Depending on the platform
that you are deploying on, choose one of the
following options:
- Deploying on Oracle Public Cloud:
- Deploying on Exadata Cloud@Customer:
- Deploying on Multicloud:
- Create an Autonomous Exadata VM Cluster (AVMC) resource on the Exadata
Infrastructure. Depending on the platform that you
are deploying on, choose one of the following
options:
- Oracle Public Cloud or Exadata Cloud@Customer:
- Multicloud:
- Create at least one Autonomous Container Database (ACD) in the AVMC resource following the instructions in Create an Autonomous Container Database.
- First create an Exadata Infrastructure
(EI) resource to host the Autonomous AI Database resources. Depending on the platform
that you are deploying on, choose one of the
following options:
- You can now create an Autonomous AI Database using the infrastructure resources created above. See Create an Autonomous AI Database for details.
- Optionally, if you want to leverage Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage for data loading, you need your object store credentials to use with Autonomous AI Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure, including a username and a password. Your username is your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure user name, and your password is your auth token. See Working with Auth Tokens for more details.
After you create Autonomous AI Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure deployments, you can connect to your Autonomous AI Database and develop applications. Refer to Develop Applications with Autonomous AI Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure for guidance.
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:
