Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) for Oracle now offers Oracle Standard Edition 2 (SE2) with the License Included (LI) purchase option in additional AWS Regions and for additional instance classes. R6i instances are now available in Asia Pacific (Hyderabad, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo), Europe (Frankfurt, Ireland, London), Middle East (UAE), US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), and US West (Oregon). R5 instances are now supported in Asia Pacific (Jakarta, Melbourne), and Europe (Spain). T3 instances are now supported in Asia Pacific (Hyderabad, Jakarta, Melbourne), Europe (Spain), and Middle East (UAE). 

In the License Included service model, you don’t need to separately purchase Oracle licenses. Amazon RDS for Oracle LI pricing includes the software license, the underlying hardware resources, and all database management capabilities. Simply launch an Oracle SE2 instance in the AWS Management Console or using the AWS CLI and specify the License Included option. Advantages and configuration details for available instance types can be found on the Amazon RDS for Oracle Instance Types page.

Amazon RDS for Oracle allows you to set up, operate, and scale Oracle database deployments in the cloud. See Amazon RDS for Oracle Pricing for up-to-date pricing and regional availability.
