What cloudimg adds to Oracle Database 11g Standard Edition
This image installs Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Standard Edition (release 11.2.0.4.0) on Amazon EC2 and creates a working database, so you start with an Oracle 11g server with its database already created, instead of an installer and an old operating system. Choose the operating system when you subscribe:
Oracle Linux 8
AlmaLinux 8.10, with AlmaLinux security updates applied on 13 November 2026
On both versions you get:
Oracle software on its own EBS volume: ORACLE_HOME /u01/app/oracle/product on a dedicated 20 GB /u01 volume, separate from the 50 GB root disk
A database created at build time: non-CDB database ORCL (SID ORCL), service orcl.us.oracle.com, AL32UTF8 character set, SCOTT sample schema
Listener on TCP 1521, reachable by SQL*Plus, SQL Developer, JDBC and other Oracle Net clients once you open the port in your security group
One-command operation: an oracle OS user with setEnv.sh, start_all.sh and stop_all.sh to start and stop the database and listener
AWS tooling: AWS CLI v2, the SSM Agent (running at boot) and the Amazon CloudWatch agent (installed, not configured)
A step-by-step user guide for launch, SSH, start-up, SQL*Plus, remote connection, password change and troubleshooting
Licensing: bring your own Oracle licence
This listing does not include an Oracle Database licence. You must hold a valid Oracle Database licence that covers Standard Edition 11g and use it under your agreement with Oracle. Oracle's cloud licensing policy allows Amazon EC2 instances of up to 16 vCPUs under a Standard Edition licence and up to 8 vCPUs under a Standard Edition 2 licence; check the current policy for how vCPUs are counted. The hourly charge on this listing is cloudimg's, for the image and 24/7 support.
Oracle Database 11g Release 2 is past the end of Oracle's support: Premier Support ended in January 2015 and Extended Support in December 2020, so Oracle publishes no new patches for it. This image ships the 11.2.0.4.0 release with no Patch Set Update. AlmaLinux is not on Oracle's certified platform list; for Oracle Linux 8, check Oracle's certification matrix for the minimum update and kernel it requires. Use it for legacy applications, testing and migration to a current release, not for new production systems.

Who it is for
Teams that must keep an Oracle 11g Standard Edition application running while they plan an upgrade
DBAs rehearsing an 11g to 19c migration with Data Pump
Software vendors testing support for customers still on Oracle 11g
Test and training environments that must match an existing 11g estate
What Standard Edition includes
Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Standard Edition provides the core Oracle engine: SQL and PL/SQL, ACID transactions with multi-version read consistency, XML DB, Oracle Text, Data Pump, SQL*Loader, RMAN backup and recovery and Oracle Net connectivity. Enterprise Edition options such as Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Data Guard are not part of Standard Edition, and Automatic Storage Management (Grid Infrastructure) is not installed on this image.
Getting started
Subscribe and choose the Oracle Linux 8 or AlmaLinux 8 version (m5.large or larger; up to 16 vCPUs under a Standard Edition licence, 8 vCPUs under a Standard Edition 2 licence).
In your security group allow TCP 22 from your address.
SSH in as ec2-user, run sudo su - oracle then . ./start_all.sh (the database does not start at boot), and connect with sqlplus / as sysdba.
Change the SYSTEM and SYS passwords, as the user guide shows, then open TCP 1521 to trusted addresses only.

Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time. Alternatively, you can pay upfront for a contract, which typically covers your anticipated usage for the contract duration. Any usage beyond contract will incur additional usage-based costs.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.

See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour for the EC2 instance type you run this AMI on. Every dimension maps to one AWS instance size, so pricing scales with the compute and memory you pick. Options range from small burstable instances to large memory-optimized and bare-metal machines. The hourly rate covers the image and 24/7 cloudimg support, not an Oracle Database license, which you bring yourself. Oracle's policy caps Standard Edition at 16 vCPUs, so the vendor suggests m5.large or similar. Billing stops when you stop the instance. Choose the instance that fits your workload size.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does the hourly charge cover, and is the Oracle Database license included?
The hourly rate covers the machine image and 24/7 cloudimg support only. It does not include an Oracle Database license. You must hold a valid Standard Edition 11g license under your own Oracle agreement. Oracle's policy counts vCPUs, so check how your license maps to the instance you choose.
Am I still charged the hourly software rate when I stop the EC2 instance?
The hourly software charge meters running time, so it stops when you stop the instance. You still pay underlying AWS costs for the two attached EBS volumes, the 50 GB root and the 20 GB Oracle volume, until they are deleted. Both volumes are deleted when the instance terminates.
Which instance size should I pick, and does a bigger instance raise my cost?
Each dimension maps to one instance size, so a larger instance with more vCPUs and memory bills at a higher hourly rate. The vendor suggests m5.large or larger. Oracle's policy caps Standard Edition at 16 vCPUs and Standard Edition 2 at 8 vCPUs, so stay within your license limit.
