Create an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Native Database for Oracle SOA Cloud Service

Log in to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console.

Open the navigation menu, and then in the Database section, select Bare Metal, VM, and Exadata.

Choose your Compartment. and then click Launch DB System.

In the Launch DB System dialog, enter the following:

Field	Description
Compartment	By default, the DB system launches in your current compartment and you can use the network resources in that compartment. Click the click here link in the dialog box if you want to enable compartment selection for the DB system, network, and subnet resources.
Display Name	A friendly, display name for the DB system. The name doesn't need to be unique. An Oracle Cloud Identifier (OCID) will uniquely identify the DB system.
Availability Domain	The availability domain in which the DB system resides.
Shape Type	Select the Virtual Machine option.
Shape	The shape type to use to launch the DB system. The shape type determines the type of DB system and the resources allocated to the system. Select `VM:Standard 2.1`.
Oracle Database Software Edition	The database edition supported by the DB system. You can mix supported database versions on the DB system, but not editions. (The database edition cannot be changed and applies to all the databases in this DB system.) Select `Standard Edition`. Note: To provision an RAC database select `Enterprise Extreme Edition`. This will create a two node database.
Available Storage Size	Select the storage size in GB.
License Type	The type of license you want to use for the DB system. Your choice affects metering for billing. License included means the cost of the cloud service includes a license for the Database service. Bring Your Own License (BYOL) means you are an Oracle Database customer with an Unlimited License Agreement or Non-Unlimited License Agreement and want to use your license with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. This removes the need for separate on-premises licenses and cloud licenses.
SSH Public Key:	The public key portion of the key pair you want to use for SSH access to the DB system. To provide multiple keys, paste each key on a new line. Make sure each key is on a single, continuous line. The length of the combined keys cannot exceed 10,000 characters.
Virtual Cloud Network	The VCN in which to launch the DB system.
Client Subnet	The subnet to which the DB system should attach.
Database Name	The name for the database. The database name must begin with an alphabetic character and can contain a maximum of eight alphanumeric characters. Special characters are not permitted.
Database Version	The version of the initial database created on the DB system when it is launched. After the DB system is active, you can create additional databases on it. You can mix database versions on the DB system, but not editions.
Database Admin Password	A strong password for SYS, SYSTEM, TDE wallet, and PDB Admin. The password must be 9 to 30 characters and contain at least 2 uppercase, 2 lowercase, 2 numeric, and 2 special characters. The special characters must be _, #, or -. The password must not contain the username (SYS, SYSTEM, and so on) or the word "oracle" either in forward or reversed order and regardless of casing.
Automatic Backup	Check the check box to enable automatic incremental backups for this database.

Click Launch DB System. The DB system appears in the list with a status of Provisioning. The DB system's icon changes from yellow to green (or red to indicate errors).

Wait for the DB system's icon to turn green, with a status of Available, and then click the highlighted DB system name.

Details about the DB system are displayed.

Note the IP addresses; you'll need the private or public IP address, depending on network configuration, to connect to the DB system.

Note:

For an RAC database, note the Host Domain Name, Port, and Scan DNS Name. You’ll need this information to connect to the RAC DB system.
