Fidelity Investments, Nationwide Insurance Company, and SAS Institute are among the companies that have chosen Oracle Database@Amazon Web Services to migrate and run their OCI-based Oracle Exadata Database Service and Oracle Autonomous Database.

July 21, 2025 - Amazon Web Services and Oracle announced that Oracle Database@Amazon Web Services is now available. Starting today, customers can run Oracle Exadata Database Service and Oracle Autonomous Database on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) in the United States East (Northern Virginia) and West (Oregon) regions.

Customers can easily migrate their Oracle database workloads to Amazon Web Services' OCI-based Oracle Database@Amazon Web Services, while also leveraging Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) and the latest Oracle Database 23ai with built-in AI vector functionality. Oracle Database@Amazon Web Services includes Zero-ETL capabilities, simplifying data integration between enterprise Oracle database services and Amazon Web Services analysis services, eliminating the need to build and manage complex data pipelines.

These features expand customers' options for running databases in the cloud, complementing existing on-premises Oracle database workloads. The service also provides a unified experience across OCI and Amazon Web Services, with fully integrated support from both companies, reference architectures and landing zones designed for enterprise-level applications, simplifying database management, procurement, and deployment processes.

Amazon Web Services' Marketplace simplifies the purchasing experience, allowing customers to use existing Amazon Web Services commitment funds to purchase Oracle Database services and leverage existing Oracle licenses, including BYOL (Bring Your Own License) and discount plans like Oracle Support Rewards (OSR).

The service also enables customers to build new scalable applications using microservices architecture, enhancing application intelligence and accelerating feature deployment. With built-in AI vector search capabilities, customers can search documents, images, and relational data based on conceptual content rather than specific keywords, pixels, or data values.

Customers can easily manage workloads using familiar tools like Amazon Web Services Management Console, Command Line Interface, API, and monitoring tools, preparing data for advanced analytics, machine learning, and generative AI services. The service supports Oracle applications, including Oracle E-Business Suite, PeopleSoft, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, Oracle Enterprise Performance Management, and Oracle Retail Applications.
