## 3.2 About Accessing APEX in Oracle Cloud

Learn about accessing Oracle APEX in Oracle Cloud.

APEX may reside in a local self-managed Oracle database or in a hosted environment (such as an Oracle Cloud service). The sign in process differs depending on where APEX resides.

In Oracle Cloud, APEX is installed, enabled, and ready to use in the following products:

- Oracle APEX AI Application Generator Service (APEX Service)
- Oracle APEX AI Application Generator on Oracle Autonomous AI Transaction Processing or Oracle Autonomous AI Lakehouse.

APEX is available in Exadata Cloud Service and Database Cloud Service in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. However, you need to manually customize your databases to install and enable APEX by following the self-managed database installation process or using cloud tooling such as Terraform.
