How to license Oracle SE in AWS and Azure

40 views May 16, 2021 6:30 pm

In this video we talk about how to license "standard edition" product sin Azure or AWS. We share how you calculate licensing, what are the licensing rules and which limitations exists? How can you easily become out of compliance with a Oracle cloud deployment.

00:00 Fredrik describes that Oracle licensing in the cloud for standard edition, you have different licensing rules both for on premise and in the cloud.
00:33 What is the basic licensing rule when deploying Oracle SE1, SE and SE2 in the cloud?
01:00 You count every 4 vCPU as 1 processor license for Standard Edition software from Oracle in AWS and Azure.
01:30 What if you only use 2 vCPU in AWS and Azure, do you need to license a half or a full processor license?
01:50 What if you deploy Oracle on 6 vCPu ? You need to round up the licensing calculations
02:28 Fredrik says it makes no sense from a Oracle licensing perspective to have 6 vCPUs on SE software.
02:35 We use an example to help you understand how to calculate licensing requirements in AWS and or Azure.
02:55 What are the licensing limitations that you should be aware of when deploying Oracle in Azure or AWS? (only SE)
04:00 Named User Plus user minimums for SE DB on AWS or Azure
04:15 There is a huge risk if you update an SE1 or SE and you need a SE2 license, you will then be required to have EE licensing.
04:43 Using an example for how to explain a limitation for how you can be out of compliance with Oracle when deploying on AWS and Azure.
