Create an Elastic Pool
You can create an elastic pool using an existing Autonomous Database instance, while provisioning an Autonomous Database, or while cloning an Autonomous Database.
Note:
Only Autonomous Transaction Processing databases that use ECPU compute model without Autonomous Data Guard can create an elastic pool.Create an Elastic Pool Using an Existing Autonomous Database
