Monitoring Oracle Database@AWS events in Amazon EventBridge

You can monitor Oracle Database@AWS events in EventBridge, which delivers a stream of real-time data from applications and AWS services. EventBridge routes this data to targets such as AWS Lambda and Amazon Simple Notification Service.

Note

EventBridge was formerly called Amazon CloudWatch Events. For more information, see EventBridge is the evolution of Amazon CloudWatch Events in the Amazon EventBridge User Guide.

Overview of Oracle Database@AWS events

Oracle Database@AWS events are structured messages that indicate changes in resource lifecycles. An event bus is a router that receives events and delivers them to zero or more destinations, or targets. Oracle Database@AWS events can be generated from the following sources:

Events from AWS

These events are generated from Oracle Database@AWS APIs on the AWS side and are delivered to the default event bus in your AWS account.

Events from OCI

These events are generated directly from OCI, such as events related to Oracle Exadata infrastructure or VM clusters. When you subscribe to Oracle Database@AWS, an event bus with prefix aws.partner/odb/ is created in your AWS account to receive events from OCI.

Oracle Database@AWS events from AWS

Oracle Database@AWS events from AWS include lifecycle changes related to the ODB network during creation and deletion. These events are delivered to the default event bus in your AWS account. The delivery type is best effort.

ODB network events

Event	Event ID	Message
Creation	ODB-EVENT-0001	Successfully created ODB network odbnet_ID
Creation failed	ODB-EVENT-0011	Failed to create ODB network odbnet_ID
Deletion	ODB-EVENT-0002	Successfully deleted ODB network odbnet_ID
Deletion failed	ODB-EVENT-0012	Failed to delete ODB network odbnet_ID

Example: ODB network creation event

The following example shows an event for a successful ODB network creation.

{
  "version": "0",
  "id": "01234567-EXAMPLE",
  "detail-type": "ODB Network Event",
  "source": "aws.odb",
  "account": "123456789012",
  "time": "2025-06-12T10:23:43Z",
  "region": "us-east-1",
  "resources": [
    "arn:aws:odb:us-east-1:123456789012:odbnetwork/odbnet-1234567890abcdef"
  ],
  "detail": {
    "eventId": "ODB-EVENT-0001",
    "message": "Successfully created ODB network odbnet-1234567890abcdef"
  }
}

Oracle Database@AWS events from OCI

Most events are generated directly from OCI. Oracle Database@AWS creates an event bus with prefix aws.partner/odb/ in your AWS account to receive events from OCI. We recommend that you do not delete this event bus.

OCI provides comprehensive event types, including the following:

• Oracle Exadata infrastructure

• VM cluster events

• CDB events

• PDB events

For more information about the specific event types and details that OCI supports, see the OCI documentation.

Filtering Oracle Database@AWS events

You can follow EventBridge suggested best practices on event bus setup at Event buses in Amazon EventBridge. Depending on your use cases, you can set up EventBridge rules to filter events and targets to receive and use events.

Filtering ODB network events from AWS

For ODB network events from AWS, you can filter using the following event pattern:

{
  "source": ["aws.odb"],
  "detail-type": ["ODB Network Event"]
}

You can apply this pattern using the EventBridge put-rule API with the default event bus. For more information, see PutRule in the Amazon EventBridge API Reference.

Filtering Oracle Database@AWS events from OCI

For Oracle Database@AWS events from OCI, you can set up a rule using a command similar to the example in PutRule in the Amazon EventBridge API Reference. Note the following guidelines:

• Use a custom event pattern depending on the event types that you want to filter.

• Set EventBusName to the name of the bus that Oracle Database@AWS created.

For more information about how to filter events and set up EventBridge targets across accounts, see Sending and receiving events between AWS accounts in Amazon EventBridge.

Troubleshooting Oracle Database@AWS events

If you encounter an issue with event delivery or event content, do the following:

• For ODB network events, contact AWS Support.

• For Oracle Database@AWS events other than ODB network events, contact Oracle Cloud Support.
