Full Detailed In-Depth Explanation:

When provisioning an Autonomous Database (ADB) on dedicated infrastructure, the placement

within the infrastructure is critical:

A . Listener endpoint: Incorrect. This is for connectivity, not placement.

B . Client Credentials wallet: Incorrect. This is for secure connections, not determining location.

C . The container database in which the Autonomous instance should run: Correct. On dedicated

infrastructure, an Autonomous Container Database (ACD) hosts multiple ADB instances. Selecting the

ACD during provisioning determines where the ADB resides, affecting resource allocation and

isolation.

D . The compartment: Incorrect. Compartments organize resources in OCI, but multiple ACDs can

exist within a compartment, so this doesn’t pinpoint the exact location.

Choosing the ACD is a key provisioning step for dedicated deployments.
