I think for development purposes, (the subject of this blog) I think the OTN license would apply.<BR/><BR/>Also, nice job holding your finish on your golf swing.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/><BR/>JasonJason Straubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12627913070109819002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6139250371277978964.post-58279368132201909542009-03-07T15:18:00.000-05:002009-03-07T15:18:00.000-05:00I'll answer my own question. I followed the link ...I'll answer my own question. I followed the link to Oracle on Cloud computing and they have the answer to my question there:<BR/><BR/>"For the purposes of licensing Oracle programs in the Cloud environment, customers are <BR/>required to count each virtual core as equivalent to a physical core. This policy applies to all <BR/>programs available on a processor metric. <BR/>.<BR/>.<BR/>.<BR/><B>Example, for Database Enterprise Edition licensing in Amazon EC2 environment:</B> Licensing <BR/>Oracle Database Enterprise Edition on a single EC2 instance of 8 virtual cores (on Intel <BR/>multicore chips; see the processor metric definition on the price list), which would require 8 <BR/>* 0.5 = 4 processor licenses (each virtual core is considered equivalent to a physical core). "<BR/><BR/>Too much coin for my startup. I'll stick with GAE. But this is still cool that Oracle gets what is happening and is putting some effort and thought into this.Glennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02973765512067216135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6139250371277978964.post-60416162942751815872009-03-07T15:12:00.000-05:002009-03-07T15:12:00.000-05:00Sweet.Licensing question for you.

This just might be the prettiest way to implement an APEX application....<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/><BR/>Douwe Pieter van den BosUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15844659276936857867noreply@blogger.com
