Get started with a graph database for free

Try a scalable graph database with a free trial. Graph databases make it easier to manage, represent, and interact with complex relationships in data. The graph model enables users to apply pattern recognition, classification, and statistical analysis, which allows for more efficient analysis at scale for industries such as financial services, marketing, manufacturing, and more.

Oracle Autonomous Database’s graph offering comes with more than 60 built-in, parallel analytic functions; a graph query language for simple data discovery; and developer APIs. Oracle Cloud Free Tier makes it easy to get started by offering two always-free Autonomous Database instances with 1 OCPU and 20 GB of storage each. Analysts and developers also get US$300 in free credits for a 30-day trial of a wide range of other Oracle Cloud services.
