Authenticating and Authorizing Microsoft Azure Users for Oracle AI Database s

An Oracle AI Database can be configured for Microsoft Azure users of Microsoft Entra ID (previously called Microsoft Azure AD) to connect using single sign-on authentication.

Note: Microsoft recently changed the name of Microsoft Azure AD to Microsoft Entra ID. This name change is used in the current Oracle AI Database documentation. Earlier Oracle Database releases use the name Azure AD.

• Introduction to Oracle Database Integration with Microsoft Entra ID
  Before you begin configuring Microsoft Entra AD to access an Oracle database, you must understand the overall process.

• Configuring the Oracle Database for Microsoft Entra ID Integration
  The Microsoft Entra ID integration with the Oracle Database instance requires the database to be registered with Entra ID.

• Mapping Oracle Database Schemas and Roles
  Azure users will be mapped to one database schema and optionally to one or more database roles.

• Configuring Entra ID Client Connections to the Oracle Database
  You can configure client connections to connect with the registered database.

• Configuring Microsoft Entra ID Proxy Authentication
  Proxy authentication allows an Azure user to proxy to a database schema for tasks such as application maintenance.

• Configuring Microsoft Power BI Single-Sign On
  Users have an option of a simpler configuration if only Power BI users will connect to the Oracle Database.

• Troubleshooting Microsoft Entra ID Connections
  You can use trace files to diagnose problems with Microsoft Entra ID connections. You also can easily remedy ORA-12599 and ORA-03114 errors.
