Description

This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for cloudimg support services.

## Oracle Database Client 19c AMI - Pre-Configured for AWS EC2

Stop spending hours manually installing Oracle Client libraries, resolving dependencies, and hardening your OS. This AMI delivers a production-ready Oracle Database Client 19c environment in minutes - pre-configured, security-hardened, and backed by cloudimg's 24/7 expert support with a guaranteed 24-hour response time.

## Why Choose This AMI Over Self-Install?

  • Eliminate manual setup - Oracle Client 19c, AWS CLI v2, Systems Manager Agent, and CloudWatch Agent are pre-installed and configured, removing dependency troubleshooting and configuration drift
  • Security-hardened from launch - Latest OS patches applied, SELinux enabled, and a hardened baseline so you start secure without additional lockdown steps
  • Four OS variants - Choose Oracle Linux 8, CentOS 7, AlmaLinux 8, or Rocky Linux 9 to match your compliance requirements or migration path
  • Optimised networking - ENA support delivers low latency and up to 25 Gbps single-flow bandwidth for high-throughput database connectivity

## Key AWS Integration Points

  • AWS Systems Manager - Automate patching, run commands, and manage inventory without SSH access
  • Amazon CloudWatch - Monitor client connectivity metrics, resource utilization, and set alarms for proactive issue detection
  • AWS CLI v2 - Script Data Pump exports, RMAN operations, and infrastructure automation directly from the instance
  • VPC deployment - Deploy in private subnets with no public IP for network isolation; configure security groups to allow Oracle Net traffic on port 1521

## Common Use Cases

  • Application servers requiring Oracle client libraries (OCI, JDBC, ODP.NET Core) for database connectivity
  • DevOps and CI/CD pipelines running Data Pump exports, RMAN backups, or patch automation scripts
  • DBA workstations and lightweight query tools on EC2 for monitoring and administration
  • Database automation workflows requiring secure, high-performance links to Oracle Database servers

## Requirements and Limitations

This is a connectivity client only - it does not include an Oracle Database server and cannot host data locally. Buyers should have an existing Oracle Database endpoint (on-premises or on AWS) accessible via network connectivity. Oracle licensing for the client is included in the AMI as repackaged software. The AMI supports deployment on general-purpose and compute-optimised EC2 instance families. Configure your security group to permit outbound traffic on port 1521 (or your custom Oracle Net port) to your database server.

## Security Posture

  • Hardened OS image with latest patches applied at build time
  • SELinux enforcing mode enabled by default
  • Oracle Net supports native encryption and TLS for data-in-transit protection to your database server
  • Deployable in private subnets with no internet-facing exposure
