Setting up Pluggable Database as a Service

Before you start with the Management operations of Oracle Exadata Database Service on Cloud@Customer, PDBaaS setup is required.

1. To enable PDBaaS, follow the steps in the Getting Started section. See Getting Started with Database as a Service .

2. Create one or more resource providers.

   • Create one or more PaaS Infrastructure Zones.
   • Create one or more database pools.

   See Creating Resource Providers.

3. Configure the request settings. See Configuring Request Settings.

4. Define quotas for each self service user. See Defining Quotas.

5. Create a database provisioning profile. This step is optional and is not required if you are creating an empty pluggable database. See Creating a Database Provisioning Profile Using Export Schema Objects.

6. Create a service template. A service template can contain:

   • Empty Pluggable Database: In this case, the service template is created with an empty schema.
   • Pluggable Database from a Profile: In this case, you can import schemas from a database provisioning profile. You can select this option for applications with data such as eBusiness applications.

   See Creating a Service Template for PDB Based on Profile.

7. Configure the Chargeback Service. See Configuring Chargeback.

8. While deploying a database, select the service template that you have created. See Requesting a Pluggable Database.
