Anybody know DBaaS? Can you tell me about it and how it compares to other cloud solutions like AWS, Azure, Bluemix, Docker Container Hosting? Can it be on-premise, that an enterprise offer DBaaS Oracle?

I ask because I work in a Cloud Foundry (PaaS), OpenStack (Iaas) and MongoDB (data store) environment and was a former Oracle user.

Quote:

Getting Started with DBaaS

Identify how to request and activate a trial subscription to an Oracle Cloud service
Differentiate between Oracle Database Cloud Services (Schema and DBaaS)
Recognize the difference between a DBaaS Instance and a Database Instance
Identify the steps, in order, for creating a DBaaS instance
Identify the two service levels provided by DBaaS
Identify the Oracle Cloud Service storage volumes and where they are allocated, when a DBaaS instance is created
ODB Software release: Decide which version to use, and which versions will NOT let you migrate to the Cloud
Identify the correct choice of which Oracle Database edition: Standard Edition One, Standard edition, Enterprise Edition, Express Edition, Personal Edition

DBaaS Administration: Admin DB Cloud Service Instances (tdbcs01)

Navigate with My Services Dashboard
Navigate with Database Cloud Console

It is too broad to answer and also the answer might be primarily opinion-based.

Well, that it a contradictory question. Isn't the whole idea of DBaaS is to provide the database ready to use in the cloud as a PaaS offering? The whole idea is to reduce the work done by system administrators and DBAs. Of course not on-premise.

can you point me to an Oracle DBaaS manual? So I can compare myself.

100% wrong. The cloud is about automation and orchestration. Also self service for developers. There are some DBAs and sys admins who operate cloud platform. Less, but there are. If this solution is not on premise, then no enterprise will use it. So enterprise will use MariaDB, MongoDB, et all. I don't wish to have my data in NSA data center.
