Oracle & AWS – Partnered On Trust
• Oracle Corporation and AWS have a close collaborative alliance dedicated to creating innovative solutions for
businesses of all sizes and to delivering maximum customer value.
• Customers can launch entire enterprise software stacks from Oracle on the AWS Cloud, as well as build
enterprise-grade Oracle applications using Oracle's database and middleware software.
Oracle Licensing
• Oracle customers can now license Oracle Database 11g, Oracle Fusion Middleware, and Oracle Enterprise
Manager to run in the AWS cloud computing environment. Oracle customers can also use their existing Oracle software licenses on Amazon EC2 with no additional license fees. So, whether you're a long-time Oracle
customer or looking to get started, AWS can get you started quickly.
