Configure the database settings: Provide necessary details such as the name of the database instance, the compartment where you want to create it, the desired CPU count, storage size, and network settings. You may also need to choose the database version and configuration options according to your requirements.
    4. Access the database using appropriate credentials and tools provided by Oracle Cloud: Once the database instance is provisioned successfully, Oracle Cloud will provide you with credentials and connection details to access the database. You can use SQL*Plus, SQL Developer, or any other compatible tool to connect to the database and start managing it.
    5. Define relational tables within the database to store relevant data for the application: After connecting to the database, you can start defining relational tables to store the data needed for your application. Use SQL statements like CREATE TABLE to create tables with appropriate columns and constraints based on your data model.

Integration with Vanna AI

  • Description: Vanna AI is integrated with the Oracle Cloud Database to provide natural language query generation capabilities.
  • Steps:
    1. Configure Vanna AI to establish a connection with the Database instance : Vanna AI needs to be configured to establish a secure connection with the Oracle Cloud Database instance. This involves providing necessary authentication credentials such as username, password, and connection string. Additionally, network configurations and firewall rules may need to be adjusted to allow Vanna AI to communicate with the Oracle Cloud Database securely.
    2. Train Vanna on Oracle DB’s schema to understand domain-specific natural language queries relevant to the application : Vanna AI must be trained on the schema of the Oracle Database to understand the structure of tables, relationships between entities, and attributes. This training involves parsing the metadata of the database schema and building a knowledge graph that represents the schema in a structured format. Vanna AI can then use this knowledge graph to interpret natural language queries in the context of the database schema.
    3. Ensure Vanna is capable of generating SQL queries based on the questions asked in natural language form : Vanna AI needs to be equipped with natural language processing (NLP) capabilities to understand and interpret queries expressed in natural language. This involves preprocessing the input text, parsing it to extract relevant keywords and entities, and then mapping them to corresponding elements in the database schema. Once the query is understood, Vanna AI must generate the equivalent SQL query that can be executed against the Oracle Cloud Database to retrieve the desired information.
