Oracle has removed previous versions of the Database Console and replaced it with Enterprise Manager Express (aka. EM Express).

Do I pay for Oracle Software Development licensing?
Scott D. RosenbergIBM, Oracle, Oracle licenseLeave a Comment on Do I pay for Oracle Software Development licensing?

I have recently been getting questions from clients and people counseling clients about licensing their development and non-production environment. Recently, a Miro retainer client hired IBM to do some consulting work for them in a development/non-production environment. IBM told the client that it did not need to have/purchase additional Oracle licenses for its 20+ consultants or the work they were proposing under a development/non-production encironment because the Oracle “Developer License” policy stated that licenses were not required.

For Oracle technology products such as Database or WebLogic, this is the “Named User Plus” metric. For Microsoft’s server software such as Exchange Server or SQL […]

Technically Speaking, Your Oracle Licensing is Out of Compliance!
Wayne FedericoOracle license, Oracle Licensing Compliance, Oracle Licensing TipLeave a Comment on Technically Speaking, Your Oracle Licensing is Out of Compliance!

It is very important that Oracle users do not judge their state of license compliance from Oracle White Papers. Oracle White Papers are technical documents created by Oracle folks that are not licensing people. It is very common to find the terms: failover, standby and backup, used to describe different technical configurations of Information Technology products. Those are commonly used technology terms that imply uses that may invoke a universal understanding among technical people, but they do not necessarily represent […]
