Dick Goulet Senior Oracle DBA Oracle Certified 8i DBA -----Original Message----- From: Michael Fontana [mailto:mfontana@verio.net] Sent: Thursday, September 23, 2004 3:51 PM To: oracle-l@freelists.org Subject: RE: Partitioning Question (3 of several) Here's a gotcha that is not technical, per se, but could cost your company a lot of money: Oracle CHARGES EXTRA if partitioning is used, and it is not cheap. The list price is 10k per processor (not CPU, but PROCESSOR)! This is not covered in the manuals anywhere, and of course Oracle's manuals and tech support personnel will quite often and quite rightly recommend it as a valid method to address performance and data pruning issues. =20 This will only come to light the next time you have a licensing review. We just got hit with a $500k bill which we're trying to negotiate down...
