Learn About Network Design with Oracle Database@AWS

Oracle Database@AWS is an Oracle Database cloud service on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) that runs Oracle Database workloads in your Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment.

Oracle Database@AWS brings OCI technologies, such as Oracle Exadata Database Service, Oracle Autonomous Database, Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC), and Oracle Data Guard to AWS customers. You can provision and manage Oracle Database@AWS using the AWS console, API, SDK, and AWS CloudFormation.

In this solution playbook, you learn about the various network topology options for Oracle Database@AWS.

Architecture

Oracle Database@AWS extends Oracle Database capabilities into AWS as a native service. The following architecture diagram shows the primary topology for Oracle Database@AWS with application resources within a VPC of an AWS region in the same availability zone.

Oracle Exadata Database Service on Dedicated Infrastructure or Oracle Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure reside inside the OCI child site within the ODB network which hosts Oracle Database@AWS. An application hosted within the VPC communicates with Oracle Database@AWS within the ODB network using the ODB peering connection in the same availability zone. This configuration enables a direct, secure, and low latency connection between applications in the VPC and Oracle Database@AWS.
