Oracle Autonomous Database Dedicated Infrastructure

BD.

Oracle Autonomous Database Dedicated Infrastructure is a service offering from Oracle that provides customers with a dedicated Exadata cloud infrastructure for their database workloads. This infrastructure is designed to provide greater control and isolation compared to the shared infrastructure of the standard Autonomous Database service.

The two differentiators of Oracle Autonomous Database Dedicated Infrastructure are:

B. It offers greater control and isolation starting at the Exadata cloud infrastructure level. This means that customers have more control over the infrastructure that their database workloads are running on, which can provide a higher level of security and customization. The dedicated infrastructure also provides isolation from other customers, which can help ensure that performance and availability are not affected by other workloads running on the same infrastructure.

D. Users have SYS privileges in the database. SYS privileges are the highest level of access to the Oracle database and provide users with full control over the database instance. This level of access is typically only available to database administrators, but with Oracle Autonomous Database Dedicated Infrastructure, users are able to access these privileges themselves. This can provide greater flexibility and control over the database, but also requires careful management to ensure that the database remains secure and stable.

A, C, and E are not correct:

A. Users do not have OS access to the database machine. The database is managed by Oracle and users do not have access to the underlying operating system.

C. Users cannot customize the OS stack and add additional packages. The database is managed by Oracle and users do not have access to the underlying operating system.

E. Users cannot customize the maintenance schedule. Maintenance activities, including software patching and upgrades, are managed by Oracle and cannot be customized by customers.
