Start Autonomous Database
Describes the steps to start an Autonomous Database instance.
Perform the following prerequisite steps as necessary:
-
Open the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console by clicking the next to Oracle Cloud.
- From the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure left navigation menu click Oracle Database and then, depending on your workload click one of: Autonomous Data Warehouse, Autonomous JSON Database, or Autonomous Transaction Processing.
-
On the Autonomous Databases page select an Autonomous Database from the links under the Display name column.
Notes for starting a stopped Autonomous Database instance:
-
When an Autonomous Database instance is started, Autonomous Database CPU billing is initiated, billed by the second with a minimum usage period of one minute.
-
When an Autonomous Database remains stopped for over 7 days it may take a few minutes or longer to start up, depending on the size of the database. To avoid this extra startup time, Oracle recommends starting your Autonomous Database instance once every 7 days.
