Amazon RDS for Oracle now supports the July 2025 Release Update (RU)

Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) for Oracle now supports the July 2025 Release Update (RU) for Oracle Database versions 19c and 21c. These RUs include bug and security fixes and are available for RDS for Oracle Standard Edition 2 and Enterprise Edition. Review the Oracle release notes for July RU for details.

We recommend upgrading to this RU as it includes security fixes. You can upgrade with just a few clicks in the Amazon RDS Management Console or by using the AWS SDK or CLI. You can also enable auto minor version upgrade (AmVU) to automatically upgrade your database instances. Learn more about upgrading your database instances from the Amazon RDS User Guide.
