Special-Use Licensing

Oracle Database Express Edition

Oracle Database Express Edition may be used for free, for the purposes of developing, prototyping and running applications. It can also be used for free to provide demonstrations and training. It may also be distributed for free with any applications. However, any use of the Oracle Database Express Edition is subject to the following limitations:

  1. Express Edition is limited to a single instance on any server.

  2. Express Edition may be installed on a multiple CPU server, but may only be executed on one processor in any server.

  3. Express Edition may be used only to support up to 11 GB of user data (not including Express Edition system data).

  4. Express Edition may use up to 1 GB RAM of available memory.

The Oracle technical support organization will not provide technical support, phone support, or updates for Oracle Database Express Edition.

Oracle Database Standard Edition and Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC)

Oracle 12c Express Edition

When used with Oracle Real Application Clusters in a clustered server environment, Oracle Database Standard Edition requires the use of Oracle Clusterware. Third-party clusterware management solutions are not supported.

The license restrictions for Standard Edition must be adhered to. The maximum number of CPUs defined is for the entire cluster; it is not a per node maximum.

Oracle Automatic Storage Management or the ASM Cluster File System (ACFS) is required for creating and managing all Oracle database file types. Raw volumes, partitions, or third-party cluster file systems are not supported for storing Oracle database files with Oracle Standard Edition and Oracle RAC. Refer to Oracle Automatic Storage Management Administrator's Guide for a comprehensive list of all database file types.

ASM Cluster File System (ACFS) or a local OS file system must be used to store all non-database files. No Oracle-maintained copies of any non-database files can exist in any other locations, with the following exceptions:

  1. Customers who want to manually script maintenance of a standby database can create a second copy of their archive logs outside of Oracle ASM on a local file system only, designated by the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n parameter.

  2. RMAN backups of files can reside on either a local or network mounted file system.

No other cluster software can be installed on the system, including OCFS, OCFS2, third-party clusterware, third-party cluster volume managers, and third-party cluster file systems.

Oracle Data Guard Broker

You can install the broker command line interface DGMGRL and run the observer software on computer systems that are separate from the Oracle Data Guard primary and standby systems. It is not necessary to obtain a separate license for a system hosting the observer.

Oracle Database Vault

When Oracle Database Vault is configured and enabled, it configures and enables Oracle Label Security. Oracle Label Security is solely restricted for use by the Oracle Database Vault software. If you want to create Oracle Label Security policies, then you must purchase a full-use license for Oracle Label Security.

Oracle Database Vault and Oracle9i Database Release 2 (9.2.0.8)

A separate Oracle Database 11g can be installed and used to administer Oracle Database Vault when installed with Oracle9i Database Release 2 (9.2.0.8), without additional license requirements. All 9.2.0.8 databases managed by Database Control in this manner must be correctly licensed with the Oracle Database Vault option. The installation of Oracle Database 11g deployed in this manner may not be used or deployed for other uses.

Oracle Connection Manager

Oracle Connection Manager can be installed and used on a machine different from the machine where the Oracle Database is installed and used. It is not necessary to obtain a separate license for the machine running Oracle Connection Manager.

Edition

Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC

Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC can be installed and used on a machine different from the machine where the Oracle Database is installed and used. It is not necessary to obtain a separate license for the machine running Oracle Gateway for ODBC.

Support of Real Application Testing in Earlier Releases

The full functionality of Oracle Real Application Testing is available only on Oracle Database 11g Release 1 or higher. Partial functionality of Oracle Real Application Testing is available to customers wishing to upgrade from Oracle9i Database Release 2 or Oracle Database 10g.

The functionality available on Oracle9i Database Release 2 is as follows:

  • Database Replay: Only the Workload Capture feature is supported, and the captured workload may only be replayed only on Oracle Database 11g. This feature can be used only to facilitate upgrades from Oracle 9i Database Release 2 to Oracle Database 11g.

The functionality available on Oracle Database 10g Release 2 is as follows:

  • Database Replay: Only the Workload Capture feature is supported, and the captured workload may be replayed only on Oracle Database 11g. This feature can be used only to facilitate upgrades from Oracle Database 10g Release 2 to Oracle Database 11g.

  • SQL Performance Analyzer: Only the Remote SQL Test Execute and SQL Capture into SQL Tuning Set features are supported. These features can be used only to facilitate upgrades from Oracle9i Database Release 2 and Oracle Database 10g Release 1 to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 or higher. When upgrading to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 from earlier releases (Oracle 9i Database or Oracle Database 10g Release1), Oracle Database 11g is needed to remotely execute SQL on the target database (that is, Oracle Database 10g Release 2). Real Application Testing licensing is required for both systems, Oracle Database 10g Release 2 and Oracle Database 11g.

Oracle Database Backup Cloud Service

Oracle Database Backup Cloud Service includes use of two optimizations at no additional cost. These optimizations are normally available only with the purchase of the Oracle Advanced Security Option or the Oracle Advanced Compression Option. This Oracle Database Backup Cloud Service special-use licensing includes:

  • RMAN backup encryption

  • All RMAN backup compression algorithms

To use additional features of the Oracle Advanced Security Option or the Oracle Advanced Compression Option, you must license those options separately. In addition, the Oracle Advanced Security Option must be licensed when performing RMAN encrypted backups directly to disk.

Oracle Secure Backup and Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module

For backup of Oracle Database Enterprise Edition, Oracle Secure Backup includes restricted use licenses for:

  • RMAN backup encryption to tape or Amazon S3

  • RMAN backup compression leveraging LOW, MEDIUM, BASIC or HIGH algorithms

The Oracle Secure Backup special-use licenses apply to RMAN backup encryption, which is a component of the Oracle Advanced Security Option, and RMAN backup compression levels, which are components of the Oracle Advanced Compression Option. To use additional features of the Oracle Advanced Security Option or the Oracle Advanced Compression Option, you must license those options separately. In addition, the Oracle Advanced Security Option must be licensed when performing RMAN encrypted backups directly to disk whether or not Oracle Secure Backup is the media manager.

Oracle Secure Backup Express

Oracle Secure Backup Express is bundled with the Oracle Database. Support for Oracle Secure Backup Express is provided exclusively through a free Oracle Discussion Forum monitored by Oracle employees as well as community experts.

Oracle Secure Backup Express can back up an Oracle database as well as Oracle home files and other file system data requiring tape protection.

For more information, refer to Oracle Secure Backup Licensing Information.

Oracle Wallet

An Oracle Wallet is a PKCS#12 container used to store authentication and encryption keys. The Oracle database secure external password store feature stores passwords in an Oracle Wallet for password-based authentication to the Oracle database. The Oracle Wallet may also be used to store credentials for PKI authentication to the Oracle Database, configuration of network encryption (SSL/TLS), and Oracle Advanced Security transparent data encryption (TDE) master encryption keys. Network encryption (native network encryption, network data integrity, and SSL/TLS) and strong authentication services (Kerberos, PKI, and RADIUS) are no longer part of Oracle Advanced Security and are available in all licensed editions of all supported releases of the Oracle database.

Infrastructure Repository Databases

A separate Oracle Database can be installed and used as a Recovery Manager (RMAN) repository without additional license requirements, provided that all the Oracle databases managed in this repository are correctly licensed. This repository database may also be used for the Oracle Enterprise Grid Control repository. It may not be used or deployed for other uses.

A separate Oracle Database can be installed and used as an Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control (OEM Grid Control) repository without additional license requirements, provided that all the targets (databases, applications, and so forth) managed in this repository are correctly licensed. This database may also be used for the RMAN repository. It may not be used or deployed for other uses.

Oracle Advanced Security and Enterprise User Security

If you wish to use Enterprise User Security in Oracle Database Enterprise Edition, you no longer need to license the Oracle Advanced Security Option for Kerberos and PKI based authentication. It does require a corresponding Oracle Identity Management Directory Services Plus to be licensed.

Any Oracle Advanced Security licenses purchased on or before January 31, 2004, have restricted use of the Oracle Internet Directory (OID) component of Oracle Directory Services Plus to support enterprise user security.

Current User Database Links

Current user database links are one type of database link that is supported inside the Oracle Enterprise Edition database. Current user database links provide stronger security because they do not require credentials to be stored inside the database link definition. Current user database links require Enterprise User Security and use SSL to secure the communication channel over which the current user database link communicates with the target database. If you wish to use current user database links, you do not need to license Oracle Advanced Security to enable SSL.

XStream

XStream, which is built on the infrastructure of Oracle Streams, provides application programming interfaces (APIs) that enable client applications to receive real-time data changes from an Oracle database (using XStream Out APIs) and to send real-time data changes to an Oracle database (using XStream In APIs). These data changes can be shared between Oracle databases and other systems, such as filesystems and non-Oracle databases. XStream is licensed via the Oracle GoldenGate product. You must purchase a license for this product before using the XStream APIs. Please contact your Oracle sales representative for additional information.

Oracle Clusterware

Oracle Clusterware provides cluster membership and high availability monitoring and failover. Oracle Clusterware may be used to protect any application (restarting or failing over the application in the event of a failure) on any server, free of charge. Oracle will provide support for Clusterware only if the server is running an Oracle product, which may include Oracle Linux or Oracle Solaris, that is also under Oracle support.

Oracle ASM Cluster File System (Oracle ACFS)

Refer to following table for the license requirements that apply to the Oracle ACFS features:

Oracle ACFS FeaturesOracle Database FilesNon-Oracle Database Files
All Oracle ACFS features other than those listed belowFreeFree
ACFS SnapshotRequires Oracle Database Enterprise Edition*Free
