Oracle Autonomous Database Professional study guide
Oracle Autonomous Database Professional · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.
The Oracle Autonomous Database Cloud 2020 Specialist is a certification exam listed by Oracle University under the code 1Z0-931-20; the same exam page is also reachable through the older 1Z0-931 URL, which redirects to the 2020-specialist page. Oracle University's own page was returning a maintenance notice and an HTTP 403 error when checked, so the published question count, time limit, passing score, fee, retake rules, and validity period could not be confirmed from the source. This page therefore leaves those values blank rather than guessing. The credential is aimed at database administrators, cloud engineers, and data professionals who design, provision, secure, monitor, and load data into Oracle Autonomous Databases, both Transaction Processing and Data Warehouse workloads. Topics on this exam: Autonomous Database Fundamentals, Provisioning and Connecting to Autonomous Databases, Managing and Monitoring Autonomous Databases, and Migrating and Loading Data into Autonomous Databases. The Oracle Autonomous Database Professional study guide has 4 sections and about 1,450 words.
01Autonomous Database Fundamentals
This domain tests whether you can explain the Autonomous Database family and select the right deployment, workload, and scaling model. Questions often hinge on Serverless versus Dedicated, workload type, compute units, and which operations Oracle automates.
353 words, about 2 min02Provisioning and Connecting to Autonomous Databases
This domain tests provisioning choices and the connection path from client to database. Expect scenarios on public versus private endpoints, wallets, service levels, and least-privilege users.
382 words, about 2 min03Managing and Monitoring Autonomous Databases
This domain tests day-2 operations: observing performance, scaling, backups, patching, and availability. The exam favors console-based evidence and automated-feature behavior over manual DBA habits.
334 words, about 2 min04Migrating and Loading Data into Autonomous Databases
This domain tests how data gets into Autonomous Database and how to choose a migration method by size, downtime, and source. Expect Data Pump, object storage, Database Actions, and minimal-downtime replication.
