+## Autonomous Database Serverless
+
+Oracle Autonomous Database Serverless (ADB-S) runs on shared Exadata infrastructure managed entirely by Oracle. Unlike Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure, customers do not provision or manage Exadata infrastructure or VM clusters. The database is fully managed and auto-scales compute and storage based on workload demand.
+
+ADB-S is accessed through the ODB network using the same networking model as other Oracle Database@AWS services. Connectivity is via mTLS or TLS endpoints exposed through the ODB network.
+
+Key differences from Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure:
+
+  * No customer-managed Exadata infrastructure or Autonomous VM cluster is required.
+
+  * Infrastructure is shared and managed entirely by Oracle.
+
+  * Available via public offer on AWS Marketplace (no private offer negotiation required).
