The future of SE2 licensing?

tmbeetzMar 22 2024

Hi,

Oracle Database Appliance Licensing Overview

About License Options for Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 on Oracle Database Appliance

For the purposes of licensing Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 on Oracle Database Appliance running multi-chip modules, where each chip in a multi-chip module is counted as an occupied socket for licensing purposes, you may exceed the 2 sockets per server limit. Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 requires one processor license for every 8 enabled cores on Oracle Database Appliance running multi-chip modules. If the number of enabled cores is not divisible by 8, the quotient must be rounded up to the nearest whole number to determine the number of Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 processor licenses required.

This is ODA only, but we will see.

Regards Thomas
