Overview
Azure holds the applications. This exam places the Oracle database beside them.
A Professional exam on designing, deploying and managing Oracle AI Database@Azure; Oracle recommends Oracle and Azure experience. It covers delegated subnets and DNS, Zero Downtime Migration, high availability and disaster recovery, and security. Oracle asks you to finish at least 80% of its learning path first, and some format figures come from a Japanese-language page.

Learn the concepts that make Oracle AI Database@Azure different from running Oracle on Azure virtual machines. You see what the service model delivers, who operates what, and the reasons customers choose it.
- Oracle on Azure virtual machines compared with the service
- What the service model delivers
- Who operates which layer
- Reasons customers choose it
- Terms across the two clouds: subscription, tenancy, region
You build A comparison table of three ways to run Oracle on Azure, with when each fits.
The service joins an Azure subscription and an Oracle tenancy. You learn how it is built, how to link the two sides, and which permissions and prerequisites must exist before provisioning begins.
- The architecture and where each piece runs
- Linking an Azure subscription and an Oracle account
- Permissions needed on each side
- Regions, quotas and capacity
- Onboarding steps in order
- Checking onboarding before you build
You build An onboarding plan for a company with one Azure subscription and one Oracle tenancy.
The database lives on its own network, tied to Azure through a delegated subnet. You size and place that subnet, plan address space, and set the security rules that decide who can reach the database.
- What a delegated subnet is and why it exists
- Sizing and placing the delegated subnet
- Address planning across virtual networks
- Network security groups and rules
- Limits that affect design
- Validating connectivity
You build A virtual network layout with a delegated subnet and its security rules.
Real estates have many networks. You compare the supported topologies, work out how each fits a hub-and-spoke estate and on-premises links, and configure DNS so that applications find the database by name.
- Supported topologies and their limits
- Fitting the service into a hub-and-spoke estate
- Reaching the database from on-premises
- Private DNS zones and name resolution
- Resolving names across Azure and Oracle
- Diagnosing DNS and routing problems
You build A topology and DNS design for an estate with a hub and three spokes.
Provisioning follows a set order and fixes choices that are hard to change later. You create the infrastructure, then the databases on it, choosing sizes and settings with the workload and its growth in mind.
- The order of provisioning: infrastructure, then databases
- Choosing sizes, shapes and settings
- Provisioning from the portal and from code
- Creating databases and pluggable databases
- Tagging and organizing resources
- Checking a new environment
You build A provisioning template and a checklist for a new database environment.
Provisioned databases need looking after. You handle patching, scaling and backups, use monitoring from both clouds, and automate routine work so that it is done the same way every time.
- Patching and maintenance planning
- Scaling and capacity changes
- Backups and their management
- Monitoring and alerts in Azure and in Oracle tools
- Automating routine operations with scripts and templates
- Reading logs and diagnosing problems
You build A monitoring and automation set for a running database environment.
Moving on-premises Oracle databases is a project with fixed steps. You assess sources, pick Exadata or Autonomous AI Database targets, and run Zero Downtime Migration workflows with a plan for cutover and rollback.
- Assessing on-premises sources
- Choosing an Exadata or Autonomous AI Database target
- Zero Downtime Migration workflows
- Preparing connectivity and prerequisites
- Cutover, validation and rollback
- Handling large estates in waves
You build A migration plan from an on-premises database to a chosen target.
A design must say what happens when something fails. You build in high availability inside a region, configure disaster recovery between regions, and test that recovery meets your objectives.
- High availability inside a region
- Standby databases and replication
- Disaster recovery between regions
- Backup and restore strategy
- Application connection handling during failover
- Testing recovery against objectives
You build A high availability and disaster recovery design with objectives and a test plan.
Security spans both clouds. You manage identity and access on each side, protect data with encryption and key control, and apply the security controls that suit regulated workloads.
- Identity and access management on each side
- Roles for administrators and operators
- Encryption and key management
- Network controls and private access
- Auditing and security monitoring
- Controls for regulated data
You build A security design with roles, encryption and audit mapped to risks.
Use the OCI Well-Architected framework as the yardstick for a complete design. You design the service for a business case, review it against each principle of the framework, and revise it where it falls short.
- Choosing a business case and its constraints
- Producing the full architecture
- Reviewing it against the framework’s principles
- Finding the gaps and their causes
- Revising the design
- Presenting the review to stakeholders
You build A complete Oracle AI Database@Azure design with a written review against the framework.

Reviews
Real stories from the community.
LUNARTECH Academy has been the most empowering learning experience of my life, giving me a clear, structured path from the absolute basics to building real-world AI systems with confidence.
Your page is fantastic. As a bachelor’s student in Data Science now accepted for a master’s at UConn, your work has been a real source of motivation.
The programme’s clear, bite-sized content and practical projects dramatically improved my speed from fuzzy idea to MVP and my ability to communicate AI value. I followed the system, and it works.
I really appreciate your teaching style and the way you break down complex topics. It has been incredibly helpful.
After years working mainly with R for econometrics, I found your Python machine learning course a refreshing and engaging way to learn Python.
