00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:02,950
In this lesson,
we'll take a look
2
00:00:02,950 --> 00:00:05,080
at the different editions
of the Oracle database
3
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:06,700
software that are available.
4
00:00:06,700 --> 00:00:08,710
This is an important
subject to a DBA,
5
00:00:08,710 --> 00:00:10,330
because the edition
your company pays
6
00:00:10,330 --> 00:00:13,300
for will have certain options
available, while others
7
00:00:13,300 --> 00:00:14,470
will be excluded.
8
00:00:14,470 --> 00:00:18,070
Also, as a DBA, you need to be
able to intelligently determine
9
00:00:18,070 --> 00:00:20,270
which edition is
right for your company
10
00:00:20,270 --> 00:00:23,320
so you have all the features
you need without overpaying.
11
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,840
To begin, there are
two licensing models
12
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,030
available for Oracle
database, and they're not
13
00:00:28,030 --> 00:00:30,100
both available
for every edition.
14
00:00:30,100 --> 00:00:32,470
The primary way of
licensing Oracle software
15
00:00:32,470 --> 00:00:34,450
is the CPU-based model.
16
00:00:34,450 --> 00:00:36,610
That is to say, you
license the software
17
00:00:36,610 --> 00:00:40,170
based on the number of CPUs
your database server is running.
18
00:00:40,170 --> 00:00:43,360
So let's just make up a few
numbers here as an example.
19
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,000
Keep in mind, I'm just making
these up for easy math.
20
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:47,560
How much a company
pays for Oracle
21
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,820
can be dependent on a
lot of different things,
22
00:00:49,820 --> 00:00:51,860
particularly the
size of the contract.
23
00:00:51,860 --> 00:00:54,070
Let's say you've licensed
an edition of Oracle that
24
00:00:54,070 --> 00:00:56,740
cost $10,000 per CPU.
25
00:00:56,740 --> 00:00:58,390
If your server has
four CPUs, years
26
00:00:58,390 --> 00:01:01,570
that's $40,000 for the
license to run the software,
27
00:01:01,570 --> 00:01:03,840
which will include some
level of support from Oracle.
28
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:08,740
However, what if those CPA
you are multi-core CPUs?
29
00:01:08,740 --> 00:01:10,870
Will Oracle licensing
ignore that?
30
00:01:10,870 --> 00:01:13,180
Not a chance-- and
probably for good reason.
31
00:01:13,180 --> 00:01:15,910
If multi-core CPUs
weren't accounted for,
32
00:01:15,910 --> 00:01:17,380
a company could
just buy a server
33
00:01:17,380 --> 00:01:22,090
with a single CPU you that had
10 cores and pay only $10,000.
34
00:01:22,090 --> 00:01:25,670
The idea here is basing
this on computing power,
35
00:01:25,670 --> 00:01:27,640
the cores have to be
taken into account.
36
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,010
But it also wouldn't be
fair to count every core
37
00:01:30,010 --> 00:01:32,650
as a separate CPU,
so Oracle strikes
38
00:01:32,650 --> 00:01:34,390
a balance between the two.
39
00:01:34,390 --> 00:01:36,940
Let's say we have
our four CPU server,
40
00:01:36,940 --> 00:01:39,250
but each CPU has four cores.
41
00:01:39,250 --> 00:01:42,260
We would calculate the
license based on a multiplier,
42
00:01:42,260 --> 00:01:44,530
let's say, 1.25.
43
00:01:44,530 --> 00:01:50,380
So at $10,000 times four CPUs
times a multiplier of 1.25,
44
00:01:50,380 --> 00:01:52,630
we come up with $50,000.
45
00:01:52,630 --> 00:01:54,940
Again, these are
just example numbers.
46
00:01:54,940 --> 00:01:58,270
Nearly every server sold today
uses multi-core processors,
47
00:01:58,270 --> 00:02:01,060
so this is something
we need to be aware of.
48
00:02:01,060 --> 00:02:04,970
The other type of licensing
model is the named user model.
49
00:02:04,970 --> 00:02:08,470
In this model, we don't
license based on CPU hardware,
50
00:02:08,470 --> 00:02:11,790
we base it on the number of
people that use the database.
51
00:02:11,790 --> 00:02:14,300
So Oracle charges
an amount per user,
52
00:02:14,300 --> 00:02:16,540
and we multiply that
times the number of people
53
00:02:16,540 --> 00:02:18,590
that use the database.
54
00:02:18,590 --> 00:02:22,000
So let's say that Oracle
charges $150 per user,
55
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,510
and we have 100 users.
56
00:02:23,510 --> 00:02:27,380
150 times 100 users is $15,000.
57
00:02:27,380 --> 00:02:30,010
So if your user
base is 100 users,
58
00:02:30,010 --> 00:02:33,080
it makes sense that we go
with the named user model.
59
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,770
However, it's important that
we take all of the users
60
00:02:35,770 --> 00:02:36,720
into account.
61
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,250
What if our user
base is 1,000 users?
62
00:02:39,250 --> 00:02:41,350
That totals up to
over three times
63
00:02:41,350 --> 00:02:43,930
what we would pay for
the CPU-based model.
64
00:02:43,930 --> 00:02:47,320
So it's important to know what
you're using the database for
65
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,180
and how many people use it.
66
00:02:49,180 --> 00:02:50,980
The primary edition
of Oracle database
67
00:02:50,980 --> 00:02:53,590
is the Enterprise
Edition, or EE.
68
00:02:53,590 --> 00:02:55,610
Enterprise Edition is
the most common edition
69
00:02:55,610 --> 00:02:58,180
used, even though it
is the most expensive.
70
00:02:58,180 --> 00:03:00,400
Typically, a mid-sized
to large company
71
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:01,930
will purchase the
Enterprise Edition
72
00:03:01,930 --> 00:03:05,080
to ensure that the majority
of features are provided.
73
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,750
A very large company may
enter into negotiations
74
00:03:07,750 --> 00:03:09,730
with Oracle
representatives to come up
75
00:03:09,730 --> 00:03:12,820
with a large contract that
doesn't charge full price.
76
00:03:12,820 --> 00:03:15,740
Enterprise Edition has the
following characteristics.
77
00:03:15,740 --> 00:03:18,640
It has no maximum as to the
number of CPU processors
78
00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:19,570
that are allowed.
79
00:03:19,570 --> 00:03:22,750
Any server with any number
of CPUs is acceptable.
80
00:03:22,750 --> 00:03:25,570
It has no limit as to the
amount of memory allowed.
81
00:03:25,570 --> 00:03:27,460
Any memory amount is allowable.
82
00:03:27,460 --> 00:03:31,210
It is available in 32-bit
and 64-bit versions,
83
00:03:31,210 --> 00:03:33,040
depending on your
operating system.
84
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:34,900
Most importantly,
it allows access
85
00:03:34,900 --> 00:03:37,630
to a number of features not
included in other versions,
86
00:03:37,630 --> 00:03:40,030
features like Data Guard
for high availability,
87
00:03:40,030 --> 00:03:42,130
fine-grained auditing
for security,
88
00:03:42,130 --> 00:03:44,860
and cross platform
database recoverability.
89
00:03:44,860 --> 00:03:48,090
The full list is available
on the Oracle website.
90
00:03:48,090 --> 00:03:50,910
These features should be taken
to account in any company that
91
00:03:50,910 --> 00:03:52,170
relies on Oracle.
92
00:03:52,170 --> 00:03:53,370
They're not luxuries.
93
00:03:53,370 --> 00:03:56,190
The Enterprise Edition includes
the largest number of features
94
00:03:56,190 --> 00:03:57,000
available.
95
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,330
The next edition is the
Standard Edition, or SE.
96
00:04:00,330 --> 00:04:03,820
Standard Edition is limited to
systems with four or fewer CPU
97
00:04:03,820 --> 00:04:04,770
sockets.
98
00:04:04,770 --> 00:04:06,930
Like the Enterprise
Edition, it has no limits
99
00:04:06,930 --> 00:04:08,970
on memory or database size.
100
00:04:08,970 --> 00:04:12,030
It includes many options, but
not as many as Enterprise.
101
00:04:12,030 --> 00:04:15,930
For example, both EE and SE
provide a performance feature
102
00:04:15,930 --> 00:04:18,600
known as Automatic
Workload Management.
103
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,540
It is interesting to note that
according to Oracle's website
104
00:04:21,540 --> 00:04:24,930
Standard Edition includes
full use of Oracle RAC, which
105
00:04:24,930 --> 00:04:28,920
is an optional pay extra feature
in the Enterprise Edition.
106
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,740
Standard Edition is chosen
by many small to mid-sized
107
00:04:31,740 --> 00:04:34,590
companies as the
economical option.
108
00:04:34,590 --> 00:04:38,580
Standard Edition 1, or SE, is
similar to Standard Edition.
109
00:04:38,580 --> 00:04:42,120
It is limited to systems with
two or fewer CPU sockets.
110
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,240
Like the other editions, it has
no limits on memory or database
111
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:45,960
size.
112
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,500
However, it is only available
for Linux, Unix, and Windows.
113
00:04:49,500 --> 00:04:52,020
It has even fewer features
than the Standard Edition.
114
00:04:52,020 --> 00:04:54,270
However, it costs less than SE.
115
00:04:54,270 --> 00:04:57,180
It is important to note
that even though the SE1 has
116
00:04:57,180 --> 00:05:00,240
fewer features, all the basic
functionality is present.
117
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,000
SE1 is an edition that
small to mid-sized companies
118
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,080
should consider.
119
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:08,190
The final edition we'll look at
is the Express Edition , or XE.
120
00:05:08,190 --> 00:05:10,340
Express Edition
is limited to one
121
00:05:10,340 --> 00:05:14,880
CPU, one gigabyte of RAM, and a
total database size of 11 gig.
122
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,030
Despite these limits, Oracle
XE has the distinction
123
00:05:18,030 --> 00:05:19,630
of being completely free.
124
00:05:19,630 --> 00:05:22,890
However, one word of caution to
those who are learning Oracle.
125
00:05:22,890 --> 00:05:24,960
Oracle XE is really
a different product
126
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,190
than the other editions.
127
00:05:26,190 --> 00:05:27,840
It lacks so many
features that it
128
00:05:27,840 --> 00:05:30,420
isn't very useful in
learning Oracle database.
129
00:05:30,420 --> 00:05:32,880
It is primarily used in
development and prototyping
130
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,490
situations where there is
just a need for a database
131
00:05:35,490 --> 00:05:37,860
to run applications against.
