Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> more on Oracle Standard One
http://www.crn.com/sections/BreakingNews/dailyarchives.asp?ArticleID=44997
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?
