Oracle Database 21c Enterprise Edition - Production-Ready on AWS
Reduce your Oracle deployment effort from days to minutes. This pre-configured AMI from cloudimg gives Oracle DBAs and platform engineers at mid-market and enterprise organizations a hardened, observable Oracle21c environment on AWS - backed by 24/7 expert support with a guaranteed response SLA.
Why Choose cloudimg Over a Manual Deployment?
Building an Oracle 21c environment from scratch on AWS requires configuring the OS, applying security patches, installing monitoring agents, tuning EBS storage, and validating networking - typically consuming 2-3 days of DBA effort. With this AMI, those steps are completed for you:
- Pre-installed observability stack - AWS CLI v2, CloudWatch Agent, and SSM Agent are configured at launch, eliminating manual setup for monitoring and automation
- EBS-optimized storage - Automatic EBS optimization is applied so your database volumes deliver consistent throughput from the first query
- ENA Express networking - Single TCP flows up to 25Gbps enable faster RMAN backups and Data Pump exports, helping reduce backup windows for multi-TB databases
- Security-patched baseline - Latest OS and security patches are applied at build time, reducing your exposure window compared to manual installs
Key Capabilities
- Native JSON storage - Build JSON-based microservices that leverage full SQL access without a separate document store
- Blockchain tables - Create tamper-evident ledger records directly in the database for audit and compliance workflows
- In-database AutoML - Run machine learning models inside the database engine, reducing data movement for analytics teams
- Converged engine - Support OLTP, analytics, and mixed workloads in a single database instance
Deployment Scenarios
Financial services audit trails - Use blockchain tables to maintain immutable transaction records for regulatory compliance in banking and insurance environments running multi-TB OLTP workloads.
ERP migration to AWS - Migrate on-premises Oracle-backed ERP systems (PeopleSoft, E-Business Suite) to AWS using BYOL entitlements, with cloudimg providing architecture guidance for right-sizing instances and configuring Data Guard replication.
JSON microservices with SQL - Development teams building API-driven applications can store JSON documents natively while retaining the ability to join, index, and query them with standard SQL.
Flexible Linux Options
Choose Oracle Linux, AlmaLinux, or Rocky Linux at launch. Select the distribution that matches your organization's patching policies and support agreements.
Bring Your Own License (BYOL)
Use your existing Oracle Database Enterprise Edition license entitlements. This AMI does not include Oracle software licenses - you apply your own, giving you full control over your licensing compliance.

This AMI launches with CloudWatch Agent, SSM Agent, AWS CLI v2, EBS optimization, and security patches pre-applied, letting your team reach a working Oracle environment on the same day you subscribe.
- Bring Your Own License with flexible Linux choices - use existing Oracle Enterprise Edition entitlements on your preferred distribution (Oracle Linux, AlmaLinux, or Rocky Linux). Maintain licensing compliance while choosing the OS that aligns with your organization's patching policies and operational standards.
