Amazon RDS for Oracle and Amazon RDS Custom for Oracle now support bare metal instances. You can use M7i, R7i, X2iedn, X2idn, X2iezn, M6i, M6id, M6in, R6i, R6id, and R6in bare metal instances at 25% lower price compared to equivalent virtualized instances.
With bare metal instances, you can combine multiple databases onto a single bare metal instance to reduce cost by using the Multi-tenant feature. For example, databases running on a db.r7i.16xlarge instance and a db.r7i.8xlarge instance can be consolidated to individual pluggable databases on a single db.r7i.metal-24xl instance. Furthermore, you may be able to reduce your commercial database license and support costs by using bare metal instances since they provide full visibility into the number of CPU cores and sockets of the underlying server. Refer to Oracle Cloud Policy and Oracle Core Factor Table, and consult your licensing partner to determine if you can reduce license and support costs.
Bare metal instances are available with Bring Your Own License (BYOL) license for Oracle Enterprise Edition. Refer to Amazon RDS for Oracle Pricing and Amazon RDS Custom for Oracle Pricing for available instance configurations, pricing, and region availability.
