Abstract

As you know already, Oracle has delivered a few decades of data management systems and innovation for on-premise, cloud, and hybrid type of deployment. The latest cloud version of the database is called the Autonomous Database (ADB). This system combines concepts like self-driving, self-securing, and self-repairing by redefining the database management tasks using machine learning and automation. This dramatically reduces the needs of human labor, costs, and manual tuning and then reduces the risk and human errors. This way, your system is more stable, more efficient in terms of performance but also in terms of cost.
