Standard Edition One Processor Licensing

662681Feb 10 2010 — edited May 17 2010
Hi

I'm trying to get to the bottom of the licensing for Standard Edition One (and also Standard Edition). I have the processor license prices, but am not sure if we need to apply core factors as we'll be using a single multi-core processor.

The oracle pdf of database licensing states the following:

"+When licensing Oracle programs with Standard Edition One or Standard Edition in the product name, a processor is counted equivalent to a socket;+"

So does this mean if we have a single socket quad-core cpu we don't need to apply the core factors???

Any guidance greaty appreciated, the more I dig around on the Oracle site, the more confused I get!

Regards

John
