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.

Production-ready in minutes instead of days - skip 2-3 days of manual OS hardening, agent installation, and storage configuration. 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.

If you are an AWS Free Tier customer with a free plan, you are eligible to subscribe to this offer. You can use free credits to cover the cost of eligible AWS infrastructure. See AWS Free Tier for more details. If you created an AWS account before July 15th, 2025, and qualify for the Legacy AWS Free Tier, Amazon EC2 charges for Micro instances are free for up to 750 hours per month. See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour for the running instance you choose. Each dimension maps to one AWS EC2 instance type, so the price scales with the compute size you select. Smaller instances like t3.micro cover light testing, while larger sizes such as metal and high-memory types suit production database workloads. Software and support are billed together with the hourly rate; you also pay standard AWS infrastructure charges separately. The vendor recommends m5.large or larger, since Oracle Database benefits from added memory. Pick the instance that matches your workload, and your hourly cost adjusts accordingly.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What do I actually get for the hourly rate on each instance dimension?
Each dimension delivers one running EC2 instance preloaded with Oracle Database 21c Enterprise Edition 21.3.0.0.0, a preconfigured sample database, listener on port 1521, helper scripts, monitoring agents, and applied security patches. The hourly rate bundles this software and 24/7 vendor support with a 24-hour response commitment.
Am I charged the hourly software rate when the instance is stopped?
The hourly software charge meters running time only, so a stopped instance does not accrue it. However, stopped instances can still incur standard AWS storage fees for the root and dedicated Oracle volumes. To halt software charges fully, stop or terminate the instance in EC2.
If I move to a larger instance later, does my hourly cost change automatically?
Yes. Your bill follows the instance type you run. Switching to a size with more vCPU or memory raises the hourly rate for that dimension; moving to a smaller size lowers it. The change takes effect when you launch the new instance type, not automatically while running.
