Oracle Database 21c Standard Edition on AWS
Deploy Oracle Database 21c Standard Edition 2 on AWS in minutes with a pre-hardened, production-ready AMI maintained and supported by cloudimg. This converged database delivers native JSON, blockchain tables, and AutoML features under a licence limited to two CPU sockets and sixteen CPU threads for predictable cost.
Why Choose cloudimg
Unlike a bare Oracle installation, this AMI ships fully configured with observability tooling, security hardening, and networking optimization already applied. Without it, teams typically spend hours manually installing agents, tuning EBS volumes, and applying patches before reaching a production-ready state. With cloudimg you get a tested, repeatable baseline backed by engineers who specialize in Oracle on AWS - reducing your time-to-production and ongoing operational risk.
Key AWS Benefits
One-click launch - Production ready in minutes on Oracle Linux, AlmaLinux, or Rocky Linux AMIs.
Enhanced Networking (ENA) - Single-flow bandwidth up to 25 Gbps for backups and Data Pump transfers.
Observability built in - AWS CLI v2, CloudWatch Agent, and SSM Agent come pre-installed for unified monitoring and automation.
Hardened baseline - Latest security patches applied, unnecessary services disabled, and automatic EBS optimization configured for sustained I/O throughput.
Encryption support - Compatible with EBS encryption at rest and Oracle Net TLS encryption in transit for data protection.
Security and Hardening Details
The AMI is built with a security-first approach including the latest OS-level patches, disabled unnecessary network services, and pre-configured firewall rules. EBS volumes support AWS-managed encryption at rest, and Oracle Net can be configured for TLS to protect data in transit. Patch updates are published on a regular cadence to address CVEs promptly.
Common Use Cases
Departmental ERP, CRM, and analytics needing Oracle compatibility without Enterprise Edition extras.

You pay by the hour for the software running on your chosen EC2 instance type. The many dimensions each map to a specific instance size, so pricing scales with the compute you select. Smaller instances like t3.nano cost less per hour than large ones like memory- or GPU-optimized types. You pick one instance type that fits your workload; the software runs the same across all of them. The vendor recommends m5.large or larger, with a minimum of 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM, and 20 GB disk. Software support is included with all instance choices.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does the hourly charge cover, and am I billed when the instance is stopped?
The hourly rate covers the software licence for the running EC2 instance. Charges accrue only while the instance runs. A stopped instance stops the software hourly charge, though underlying AWS storage fees may still apply. You pay per instance-hour on the instance type you launch.
What is included in the software beyond the database itself?
Each instance runs Oracle Database 21c Standard Edition with a preconfigured sample database and listener on port 1521. It also includes AWS CLI v2, the Systems Manager Agent, the CloudWatch Agent, and helper scripts. You get 24/7 support with a guaranteed 24-hour response SLA on every instance choice.
Does the price change if I move to a bigger instance for more memory or storage?
Yes. The software runs the same across all instance types, but the hourly rate is tied to the instance size you select. Moving to a memory-heavy or larger instance raises the hourly charge. The vendor recommends m5.large or larger; minimum is 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM, and 20 GB disk.
