Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse Cloud launched for GA

Posted on Sunday, April 1, 2018 by RICHARD HARRIS, Executive Editor

Oracle has announced the availability of a new service based on its Autonomous Database named Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse Cloud. Autonomous Data Warehouse Cloud, uses machine learning to deliver performance, security capabilities, and availability with no human intervention, at 'half the cost of Amazon Web Services.'

Autonomous Data Warehouse Cloud delivers all of the analytical capabilities, security features, and high availability of the Oracle Database without any of the complexities of configuration, tuning, and administration - even as warehousing workloads and data volumes change. The autonomous database is an entirely new class of offering which requires zero operational administration on the customer�s part.

Oracle Autonomous Database design features include:

Self-driving. Eliminates human labor and human error to provision, secure, monitor, backup, recover, troubleshoot, and tune the database. Automatically upgrades and patches itself while running.
Self-securing. Protects from external attacks and malicious internal users. Automatically applies security updates while running to protect against cyberattacks, and automatically encrypts all data.
Self-repairing. Provides automated protection from all planned and unplanned downtime with up to 99.995 percent availability, resulting in less than 2.5 minutes of downtime per month, including planned maintenance.

The Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse is built on Oracle Database 18c, the first release in Oracle�s new annual database software release model.
