Reduce cloud costs
Base Database Service reduces the cost of running Oracle Database in the cloud with a choice of software-included or BYOL consumption pricing on flexible virtual machine shapes and cost-effective OCI Block Storage.

Oracle Base Database Service cloud pricing is based on the number of enabled OCPUs per instance, dependent on the type and shape of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure compute selected. Oracle Enterprise Database Service running on virtual machines also requires customers to select Oracle Cloud Infrastructure block storage.
*To make it easier to compare pricing across cloud service providers, Oracle web pages show both vCPU (virtual CPUs) prices and OCPU (Oracle CPU) prices for products with compute-based pricing. The products themselves, provisioning in the portal, billing, etc. continue to use OCPU (Oracle CPU) units. OCPUs represent physical CPU cores. Most CPU architectures, including x86, execute two threads per physical core, so 1 OCPU is the equivalent of 2 vCPUs for x86-based compute. The per-hour OCPU rate customers are billed at is therefore twice the vCPU price since they receive two vCPUs of compute power for each OCPU, unless it’s a sub-core instance such as preemptible instances. Additional details supporting the difference between OCPU vs. vCPU can be accessed here.

* Usage is measured with the Gigabyte Storage Capacity Per Month metric, by calculating the total block volume storage consumed for each calendar month until the block volumes are deleted. At a minimum, users will be charged for 1 minute. For anything beyond 1 minute, usage is tracked per second and prorated based on the number of seconds in a month using the per Gigabyte Storage Capacity Per Month pricing.
