## Why Choose cloudimg for Oracle on AWS

cloudimg specializes in building, maintaining, and supporting Oracle Database AMIs on AWS. When you launch this image, you benefit from:

• Oracle-on-AWS expertise - Direct access to engineers who install, operate, and optimize Oracle workloads on AWS, with architecture guidance included.
• Continuous maintenance - Regular image rebuilds incorporating the latest Oracle and OS security patches so your baseline stays current.
• SLA-backed support - 24x7x365 ticketing with a guaranteed 24-hour response time and an average first response within one hour.
• BYOL flexibility - Use your existing Oracle Standard Edition entitlements to reduce licensing costs while gaining cloud agility.

## Pre-Installed AWS Integration

• AWS CLI v2 - Manage AWS resources and automate tasks directly from the instance.
• Amazon CloudWatch Agent - Stream OS and database metrics to CloudWatch for unified monitoring and alerting.
• AWS Systems Manager (SSM) Agent - Enable patch management, remote access, and automation without opening SSH ports.
• Enhanced Networking (ENA) - Up to 25 Gbps per-flow bandwidth for fast backups, Data Pump transfers, and Data Guard replication.
• EBS Optimization - Automatic EBS-optimized configuration for sustained, predictable I/O throughput.

## Oracle Database 12.1 Standard Edition Capabilities

Oracle Database 12c Standard Edition supports up to four CPU sockets and includes:

• Core relational database engine with full SQL and PL/SQL support
• Automatic Storage Management (ASM) for simplified storage administration
• Pluggable Database (PDB) architecture for workload consolidation
• Oracle Net Services for secure client-server connectivity

## Common Use Cases

• Departmental applications - Run ERP, CRM, and analytics workloads requiring Oracle compatibility without Enterprise Edition costs.
• ISV and BYOL deployments - Customers supply their own Standard Edition licence and gain a ready-to-run cloud environment.
• Dev/test environments - Mirror on-premises Oracle workloads in AWS for development, QA, and staging.
• Database consolidation - Leverage pluggable databases to host multiple schemas on a single instance.

## Security Practices

This AMI ships with the latest available security patches applied at build time. EBS encryption is supported for data-at-rest protection, and Oracle Net encryption can be configured for data in transit. Buyers should apply their own security group rules to restrict network access to database listener ports.
