Schedule an In-Place Upgrade to Oracle Database 23ai on Autonomous Database

 

Oracle Autonomous Database now supports in-place upgrades from Oracle Database 19c to 23ai using scheduled upgrades—a seamless, automated process tailored for modern cloud environments.

Upgrade Options Available:

  • Scheduled Upgrade
    Define your preferred time, and the upgrade process runs automatically—no manual steps needed.

  • Full Clone Upgrade
    Create a full clone of your 19c database and select 23ai during the clone setup to instantiate a new, upgraded instance.

  • Refreshable Clone Upgrade
    Similar to a full clone but allows ongoing synchronization between the 19c source and 23ai clone—ideal for ensuring minimal downtime and continuous updates.
