See all analyst quotes
“As the saying goes ‘there is no AI without data.’ And, Oracle databases hold the world’s most valuable data that is now critical for organizations to adopt AI into their business processes. The latest release, Oracle AI Database 26ai, incorporates AI into the core of data management, making it easier for customers to do much more than RAG with AI Vector Search. This new release unifies search across traditional internal data, including real-time operational data, graph, JSON, and AI vectors; enables customers to build, deploy, and manage custom AI agents; and team up agents to work on tasks. Oracle is turning its converged database into an AI powerhouse that even non-Oracle users should consider.”
“Oracle has cemented its leadership as the database for mission-critical workloads—which are even more critical in the AI era, as agents need transactions to run successfully and they move to create even more transactions than possible with their human counterparts. With Oracle AI Database 26ai, Oracle enables its customers to successfully move into the AI era, leveraging their existing investments in software, skills and know-how. For Oracle customers it’s not ‘bring the data to AI,’ but it’s ‘AI comes to the data’—and with that, organizations can leverage their existing investments and software assets.”
“Imagine creating your own agent or even a team of agents to perform tasks. With Oracle AI Database 26ai, customers can do just that using the company's Oracle Select AI Agent, which provides a framework to build, deploy, and manage custom AI Agents. Developers define agents declaratively using PL/SQL or Python. An agent team could, for example, be used to automate finding solutions to database issues using DB logs. They could fetch logs, analyze the issue, and find a solution using RAG. This agent team could then write a report and post it on Slack. This is just one of the many uses for built-in AI. Oracle Database Engineering’s creativity is truly on display with Oracle AI Database 26ai, separating Oracle from many of its principal competitors in providing customers with a competitive edge.”
“With most enterprises storing different data types in different data siloes, the promise of an enterprise-grade AI solution that brings all of a company’s data together to take full advantage of AI remains an ongoing challenge. What’s needed is a true AI database, one that combines the ability to support all data types in a unified architecture—and bring it together with the rapid advances of AI—such as agentic AI, unified vector search, leading LLMs, MCP Server, NL-to-SQL and more. With its latest release, Oracle has done just that, by introducing an AI database that enables organizations to combine all of their private business data with public data and agentic frameworks to rapidly advance their business forward with AI. The enterprise database for the era of AI has a new name—and it’s Oracle AI Database.”
What’s included in Oracle AI Database 26ai Free?
AI Vector Search
Develop apps with AI Vector Search, leverage vector data types, indexes, and SQL operators in Oracle AI Database to store and query semantic content from diverse unstructured data, while supporting Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) for generating responses to natural language queries.
JSON Relational Duality
Build apps in either relational or JSON paradigms with a single source of truth and benefit from the strengths of both—relational and document models. Data is stored once but can be accessed, written, and modified with either approach.
JavaScript stored procedures
Create high performance, data-driven apps by writing JavaScript stored procedures (powered by GraalVM) and importing existing JavaScript libraries into the database. Minimize round trips to the database by executing business logic directly in the data tier.
JSON Schemas
Use industry-standard JSON Schemas to ensure only valid data is inserted into a JSON column.
Property Graphs
Find and analyze relationships, predict trends, and discover lightning-fast insights using database-native property graphs views. Use new SQL-standard property graph queries to run graph analytics on top of relational and JSON data.
Data use case domains
Annotate common data model attributes for tables, columns, views, indexes, and more, providing a central, lightweight, declarative facility to interpret, register, and exchange usage properties for AI and across apps.
Schema annotations
Bring domain knowledge closer to AI and your data by describing the intended use of data centrally and ensuring data is handled consistently across applications.
