Oracle Autonomous Database is used by our central IT organization to support a number of enterprise / administrative systems. It provides a managed cloud solution to provision, manage, backup and patch the DBs. It can also scale up or down easily to meet workloads. The idea is to free up DBA resources from doing operational tasks and provides a high of level of consistency and availability across our environment.
- Significantly reduces the amount to provision a new database
- All routine tasks (installation / patching / backup / scaling) are handled by the DB-as-a-service.
- Built-in security framework that prevents unauthorized access.
- Provide out-of-the box High Availability and DR.
- There is no access to the physical host of the DB. This is expected from a managed DB. Everything must be done through the console or via API calls. This is a new learning curve for the DBAs.
- Due to the lack of physical host access, certain features are not supported, such as Transportable tablespaces and Oracle LogMiner.
- Certain special data types, (such as XMLType) are not allowed; be sure the app vendor certifies their product on this platform.

Currently, the Oracle Autonomous Database is being used to run most of our frontend systems for our ticketing and team management systems. They are all running on Linux based systems using the Oracle Database to store all our data. We are using it across the whole organization for tracking tasks and getting the word out about our event and the community work we do. We use it to address the speed necessary in querying massive collections along with running our servers as a whole.
- Speed
- Huge Collections
- Reliability
- Cost

The database is used for central storage of corporate data for multiple departments across the organization. The problem it solves is to consolidate disparate data from the organization. I design applications and approaches for our development team. With my teammate, we come up with approaches for data modeling.
- Simple data retrieval using standard SQL
- Capable of supporting many simultaneous users/connections
- Fast loading of data in batch processing
- Improved connection abandonment detection would be useful. I occasionally encounter situations where a query becomes unresponsive due to deadlock, volume of data being queried, or other. It would be beneficial if there were better support for client-side cancellation events.

Oracle autonomous database is being used by our organization in all environments, like dev.qa and prod. The capabilities are yet to be tested in all aspects, and we are evaluating the product and planning to upgrade all of our Oracle 11g and 12c databases to 19c in the next couple of quarters.
- Availability.
- Scalability.
- Autonomous.
- Good transactional and data warehouse processing database.
- It's easy to implement.
- TDE integrations: today TDE set up needs a lot of environmental setup, and with different configurations, like cdb, pdb, data guard, and golden gate. The product should integrate the TDE by default into the product, and also the Golden Gate is a separate install which also should be integrated, and people will decide based on the use.
