 # Oracle Database on Containers
-Reviewed: "11.01.2024"
+Reviewed: "08.04.2024"
 
+Oracle Database can be run in containers. Oracle offers convenient, containerized images (Podman and Docker) for a single instance, sharded, and Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) databases running on single or multiple hosts, reducing deployment and management work.

+Autonomous Database Free Container Image is now available on [Oracle Container Registry](https://container-registry.oracle.com/ords/f?p=113:4:110784766203219:::RP,4:P4_REPOSITORY,AI_REPOSITORY,P4_REPOSITORY_NAME,AI_REPOSITORY_NAME:2223,2223,Oracle%20Autonomous%20Database%20Free,Oracle%20Autonomous%20Database%20Free&cs=3iytyP0Ctunr3v0-nv7dCZfzaGtZqSixvp3qYkAgNzNQ1JCtVBaBA_eK_z3EK1p272JeUVOsEGVfeSXev4b1QEg), you can perform local development with an ADB free container image and have the ability to merge your work later in a cloud instance.

 # Oracle Database Operator for Kubernetes
-Reviewed: "11.01.2024"
+Reviewed: "08.04.2024"
 
+Oracle Supports Oracle Database running in Kuberentes, Furthermore, Oracle offers a Kubernetes operator, Oracle Database Operator for Kubernetes, which not only allows for running containerized databases in a Kubernetes cluster but also enables the operation of non-containerized databases outside of Kubernetes:
+
+- Autonomous databases in OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure)
+- Non-autonomous databases in OCI (Database Cloud Service)
+- Pluggable databases (PDBs) on any database (on-premise or in the cloud, Exa or traditional deployments)
+
+In this way, developers can operate our database in the same manner as any other component of their applications, and utilize our best solutions (Exadata, Autonomous, etc.) to run these databases, and DBAs maintain control of such important topics as security, high availability, dissaster recovery...
