 ## Purchase options for Oracle Database@Azure
 
 The set of onboarding tasks you complete depends on the type of offer you purchase (pay-as-you-go or a private offer) and the database products you plan to use (Oracle Autonomous Database or Oracle Exadata). For more information about the differences between a pay-as-you-go offer and a private offer, see [Purchase Oracle Database@Azure](https://docs.oracle.com/iaas/Content/database-at-azure/getting-started.htm#oaa_purchasing).
 
-Most Oracle Database@Azure onboarding tasks apply to all deployments. If a task is based on an offer type or on the Oracle Database product you choose, specific requirements for that scenario are identified in the Azure documentation.

 ## Shared responsibility between Oracle and Microsoft
 
-Oracle Database@Azure is a database service that runs Oracle database workloads in a customer's Azure environment. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) offers several Oracle Cloud Database services through a customer's Azure environment. You can monitor database metrics, audit logs, events, logging data, and telemetry natively in Azure. The service runs on infrastructure that's managed by the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure operations team. The Oracle operations team manages software patching, infrastructure updates, and other operations through a connection to OCI. Although the service requires that customers have an OCI tenancy, most service activities take place in the Azure environment.

Although the service requires that customers have an OCI tenancy, most service activities take place in the Azure environment.
 
 ## Purchase Oracle Database@Azure
 
 To purchase Oracle Database@Azure, contact the Oracle sales team or your Oracle sales representative for a sale offer. Oracle Sales creates an Azure private offer in Azure Marketplace for your instance of the service. After an offer is created for your organization, you can accept the offer and complete the purchase in the marketplace in the Azure portal. For more information about Azure private offers, see [Overview of the commercial marketplace and enterprise procurement](/marketplace/what-is-commercial-marketplace).
 
-Billing and payment for the service is processed through Azure. Payment for Oracle Database@Azure counts toward Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC). Existing Oracle Database software customers can use a bring your own license (BYOL) option or an unlimited license agreement (ULA). On your regular invoice for Microsoft Azure, charges for Oracle Database@Azure appear alongside charges for your other Azure Marketplace services.

 When you subscribe to Oracle Database@Azure, you must create a managed resource group in the background to contain the `OracleSubscription` object for billing purposes. The managed resource group must be in the EastUS region. It must have a specific name, and it must initially be created without tags.
 
 Any policy that blocks the creation of the managed resource group triggers the error. For example, a policy that has any of the following rules might cause the purchase to fail:
 
-- A rule that denies the creation of resources in the EastUS Azure region.
-- A rule that denies the creation of a resource without tags.
-- A rule that enforces specific naming patterns.
