Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) now offers a way to register, manage, and monitor Oracle Databases that are located outside of the Oracle Cloud using OCI's Console, API, SDKs, Terraform, and the OCI CLI.

The External Database service allows you to register and connect to databases located outside of OCI. After registering your database, you can enable Database Management to start monitoring and managing your database through OCI.

For more information, see the documentation for the External Database and Database Management services.
