Title: Message



I was 
told by our Oracle Rep it is the number of users using the front-end 
application. If you have 10 specific users using the application, then a 
10-user license must be purchased.

  connection pooling ) does the cost multiply to no of 
  user_connecting_to_app_server or no_of_users_actually_connected to

Oracle Standard Edition One, based on the current Oracle 9i code, 
will cost $5,995 and is limited to use on one-processor servers, the company 
said. Alternatively, it can be sold for $195 per named user with a minimum 
of five users. Support and maintenance add an additional 22 percent of 
license cost and Oracle's eBusiness discounts apply, an Oracle spokeswoman 
said. So support and updates cost $899 on the one-CPU license and $214 for 
five named users. 
40% of list for Standard Edition. interesting.
If I were a support analyst, I'd be groaning, as here comes a new market 
segment of users that no nothing about administration, that will need to be 
supported prior to the rollout of 10g.
If I were an OEM such as Dell that was reselling Standard Edition 
pre-installed on new servers, I'd be figuring how to makeup the markup on 
the 15K USD version.
has anyone heard anything concerning grid pricing strategies?
