Oracle Database is the world's most widely deployed relational database, powering mission-critical enterprise applications across industries. This listing delivers Oracle Database fully installed and configured, so a production-grade database is running within minutes of launch.
Choose Your Variant
This listing is a family of Oracle Database AMIs on Oracle Linux 8; launch the AMI that matches your requirement. Oracle Database 19c is the Long Term Support release, recommended for long-term production; Oracle Database 21c is the Innovation Release, for applications certified against 21c. Standard Edition 2 suits departmental workloads and the SE2 licence model, while Enterprise Edition unlocks Partitioning, Advanced Compression, Advanced Replication and the full EE option set for demanding production workloads. Storage comes in two forms: a filesystem layout on a dedicated EBS data volume that is simple to operate and resize, or Automatic Storage Management (ASM) on Enterprise Edition, where single-instance Grid Infrastructure (Oracle Restart) manages +DATA and +RECO disk groups across raw EBS volumes for operational parity with on-premises ASM estates (asmcmd, srvctl, multi-volume IOPS striping, online storage management). The 21c ASM variant ships as a multitenant container database (ORCL) with a pluggable database (ORCLPDB).
What Is Included
Oracle Database installed from upstream Oracle media, with a starter database and the SQL*Plus command-line client, and the Oracle listener on port 1521 preconfigured. The database storage tier lives on dedicated EBS volumes so it is independently resizable without touching the OS disk. Long Term Support variants are patched to the current Database Release Update for their release series.
Secure First Boot
The image ships with no shared credentials. On the first boot of every instance, a one-shot service generates strong random passwords for SYSTEM and SYS (and ASMSNMP on ASM variants), sets them on the running database, and writes them to a file readable only by the root user. Authentication is enforced from the moment the listener is reachable.
Ready To Use
Connect via SSH, retrieve the generated credentials from /root/oracle-db-credentials.txt, and open SQL*Plus or point your JDBC driver at port 1521. The database is open and the listener is serving immediately after first boot completes. SQL Developer and other JDBC clients can connect remotely on port 1521.

Highlights
Multiple AMI variants on one listing: Oracle Database 19c (Long Term Support) or 21c (Innovation Release), Standard Edition 2 or Enterprise Edition, on filesystem storage or Automatic Storage Management with Grid Infrastructure; launch the AMI that matches your requirement
Per-instance first boot generates strong random passwords for SYSTEM, SYS (and ASMSNMP on ASM variants) and writes them to a root-only credentials file, so the database is never left with default or shared credentials

See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour based on the EC2 instance type you launch. Each dimension is an instance size, not a separate software plan. Pricing scales with the instance you pick: smaller shared instances cost less per hour, while larger compute, memory, storage, and GPU instances cost more. The single listing ships seven Oracle Database delivery options covering different releases, editions, and storage layouts. You select the variant at launch. The vendor recommends m5.xlarge or larger as a starting point. Software support is bundled at no separate line item; you pay only the hourly instance rate shown.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What do I actually get per hour, and how is the instance count charged?
You pay per running instance-hour of the EC2 type you launch. Each dimension maps to one instance size with a set number of vCPUs and memory. The rate covers the software and cloudimg support. You are billed for each instance you run, so two instances double the hourly charge.
Am I charged when the instance is stopped, for example overnight?
The hourly software rate meters running time only. A fully stopped instance does not accrue the hourly software charge. Underlying AWS storage fees for attached EBS volumes may still apply while the instance is stopped. Restarting resumes the hourly software charge.
Does choosing a different Oracle release, edition, or storage layout change my hourly price?
No. All seven delivery options ship in the single listing at the same instance-based rate. Your cost depends only on the EC2 instance type you launch, not on whether you pick 19c, 21c, 26ai, Standard Edition 2, Enterprise Edition, filesystem, or ASM.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Version release notes
Initial release of Oracle Database 26ai Enterprise Edition (Long Term Support release) with Automatic Storage Management (ASM) on Oracle Linux 9. Datafiles on +DATA, fast recovery area on +RECO, managed by single-instance Grid Infrastructure (Oracle Restart).
Additional details
Usage instructions
Connect via SSH on port 22 as ec2-user. Retrieve the database credentials with: sudo cat /root/oracle-db-credentials.txt. Switch to the oracle user: sudo su - oracle. Source the environment: . ~/setEnv.sh. Connect with SQL*Plus to the CDB root: sqlplus system/<password>@localhost:1521/ORCL, or to the pluggable database where application schemas live: sqlplus system/<password>@localhost:1521/ORCLPDB. Connect as SYSDBA: sqlplus / as sysdba. Inspect ASM as the grid user: sudo su - grid, then asmcmd lsdg to list the +DATA and +RECO disk groups. The Oracle listener runs on port 1521 and accepts remote SQL Developer / JDBC connections. The user guide explains how to connect remotely, manage the listener, inspect and manage ASM disk groups, configure backup to +RECO, use Enterprise Edition options (Partitioning, Data Guard), and tune memory.
